Plot Edit

Luce sent a letter to Fred and Explorer to come and have some cake with her in the Sunshine Fjord. When the duo was nearly reaching there, they noticed a Katilu who follows them around, dangling a camera. The three arrived, but Luce and her cake is missing, and then it rained down, the only clue they found found is a Polar Bear and Crab's footprint, Fred suggests that Herbert and Klutzy were the ones that had marked the footprint. Fred, The Katilu and Explorer runs off to chase Herbert and Klutzy, but they ran into a recently-activated warp vortex and the warp vortex disappears right after they go inside of it.

Fred and Explorer wakes up in a large house full of magical paintings, while the Katilu is busy directing the segment, Fred and Explorer sees a Duck, Explorer, and Fred asked the Duck where they are, the Duck informed that they were in the Berry Fortress and Luce has been kidnapped once again, Fred looked outside, the sun was shining, but they had no time to go in the great outdoors, they have to rescue Luce and defeat the treacherous team of Herbert and Klutzy.

Courses Edit

Levels are laid out inside paintings in the house, or sometimes the walls themselves. They can also be found in holes, gaps, oil pits and inside a clock. Each world has 6 Power Orbs. (7 in the DS version) Within each, one of which is gained by finding 100 coins, the other 5 (6 in the DS version) are found by performing "missions", fighting bosses, winning races, and etc. Every course has boundaries to limit the player from going too far, either as a strict wall or an invisible boundary. If Explorer or Fred hits either, one of them falls down which loses 1 life. Otherwhise, one of the brothers is free to roam the large expansive levels at their leisure.

Levels often feature Blue Ex-plodes called Dynamite Guys, they open cannons littered around the levels for Explorer or Fred to fly with. When the cannon is open, Explorer or Fred simply falls into the pit where it is, and it raises. The player targets the cannon with a cross hair shot, and fires. This helps Explorer or Fred reach high or far away areas. It is often a good idea to use the Flying Cap with cannons.

Fred can slide down and kick enemies, it can knock out Jocksters farther than any other attack. the Super Berry isn't in the game, however, the Super Berry is in the 3D DS version because when the player gets hit after only 1 health piece, the player still have 1 health piece, but becomes tiny which makes him/her extremely vulnerable to enemies.

Caps are found inside '!' blocks, littered around the every levels, if the Player jumps below the '!' blocks, their cap changes into Flying Cap, Invisibility Cap, Metal Cap, Fire Cap and Turbo Cap. Each one of them has different effects.

Power-ups:

• Flying Cap allows Explorer or Fred to fly after triple jumping or fired from the cannon, Explorer or Fred can only fly with the cap for limited amount of time however. This is useful for reaching high or far areas, and finding secrets in the sky. It looks like a small propeller hat, like Explorer's, only completely red.

• Invisibility Cap makes Explorer or Fred invulnerable to all attacks, They can also walk through some walls to reach new areas, where they can find hidden items and Power Orbs. It looks like a transparent, blue cap.

• Invincibility Cap is the rarest of the caps found on the game, this cap makes Explorer or Fred invulnerable to all attacks, and all enemies are instantly defeated if they touch either one of them in this form, however, it lasts for 60 seconds, but a perfect timing is a good way to use this unique cap.
