Restoring the Pumpkin Gauge
The spring in the center of Halloween Town will restore Jack’s health to full strength,
completely refilling the Pumpkin Gauge. By carrying water from this spring around in the
Crystal Bottle, you can restore Jack's Life even when you are away from the spring.
Additionally, defeated enemies will occasionally drop Green Souls. A small Green Soul will
restore one pumpkin, while the large Green Soul will restore four pumpkins to the
Pumpkin Gauge.
Continue the Story or Game Over
When the Pumpkin Gauge runs out, you are taken to the CONTINUE screen. If you
select YES before the countdown runs out, you will continue the game,
but at a cost…20% of your collected Souls.

Game Details
Understanding the Screen
Pumpkin Gauge
This is Jack's remaining Life. When Jack takes damage, the Pumpkin Gauge
decreases, and when it runs out, the game is over.
Targeting Arrow
This arrow will float over the closest object, enemy or character that Jack can
attack or interact with. When in MANUAL targeting mode, press
A to change the
target. When in AUTO targeting mode, reposition Jack to change the target.
Souls
The total number of Souls collected. With the Souls you collect, you can buy useful
things in the Witches’ Shop.
!-Count
Whenever you taunt or scare the enemy, they will show their shock and anger by
popping an exclamation mark (!) over their heads. Each time that you do this, you
will earn a point. The more you earn, the higher your Nightmare Rank will be
(see Nightmare Ranking pg. 14).
