The Crysknife can be smuggled into hell by entering The Worm in the Ice Caves, and then clearing The Mothership to force The Moai to spawn on 3-4.

One hit from the Crysknife will kill the king instantly.King Yama can be defeated in a single hit by telefragging his head, freezing his head and hitting him in his 1st phase or letting his head fall into the ground and get crushed in his 2nd phase.Doing this again on his second phase will only momentarily stun him. If flashed by the Camera during his first phase, he will immediately skip to the next one.Yama can be easily attacked using ranged weapons or Sticky Bombs.The 44 rubies that can be mined from the throne are worth a sum of $140,800. Yang will be unlocked, and the player will also receive an extra 100,000 gold to add to their total score in their run from securing the Golden Trophy.Īdditionally, with enough bombs the player can destroy the bricks of King Yama's Throne which contain a ruby in every block. Once entered, the player will view the end cutscene, where they meet Yang in the flesh and escape with him and the Golden Trophy. When King Yama is defeated, the final exit door in the game will open. If the player moves within two tiles of his head, he will bounce upwards before moving back down to his original position. He may also open his fists, spawning Magma Men that will jump out.Īfter taking enough damage or having both his fists destroyed, his face will detach from his skull and begin floating around the arena, engulfed in flame, crashing upwards into ceiling to prompt skulls to fall, and spitting fireballs that turn into Magma Men downwards. Yama will also spit Imps out of his mouth and try to use his fists in a punching attack if the Spelunker gets close enough to his head or chest area (such as by climbing onto his shoulders). King Yama attacks when the Spelunker gets near by smashing his fists upon his throne, causing three skulls to fall from the ceiling directly above the Spelunker, or dealing 2 damage if he or the fists themselves hit them. Yama's face is the primary target to attack, and after a certain amount of damage he will enter phase 2, where his face will detach from his skull and start flying around the top of the arena. King Yama's appearance atop his bloodied throne in Hell. He is not only extremely powerful, but is also accompanied by a horde of lesser enemies as well as his two henchmen - Horse Head and Ox Face. A fierce and brutal leader of hell, his massive fists are something to be feared.

Yama is a gigantic figure - by far the largest enemy seen in the game.
