The Items
Special headgears are required to open the attractions. These are aquired through the game. The attractions in question are "Jaws" (cap), "Back To The Future (cap), "Backdraft" (helmet), "Wild, Wild, Wild West Stunt Show" (cowboy head), "Jurassic Park" (cap). The shoes have different effects: They make it possible to run faster, create vibrations, or dance well at the "Animation Celebration". With the vehicles, one can move faster (with the DeLorean 32 times faster than on foot) or reach new parts of the park that can not be accessed by foot.

There are 4 kinds of dinosaurs: T-Rex, Triceratops, Brachinosaurus, and Stegosaurus.
Time Changes Everything
Once a player gets a stamp in the "Stamp Rally", "Time” in the game gains one hour. The game begins at 10 o’clock in the morning and it ends 6 o’clock in the evening, when a player gets 8 stamps. With the progress of "Time” in the game, the atmosphere of USJ will be changing from morning, day time, evening and night. After the last stamp is collected, the player can access the great final, the "Hollywood Magic" fireworks.
The Universal Studios Quiz
The player has to attend a quiz, where he will be asked some of over 400 different questions related to the park attractions and Universal movies and TV series, like the "Back To The Future" series, "E. T.", "Waterworld" or "Backdraft". A big set questions has been especially prepared for Western audience and are not included in the Japanese version of the game. Do you remember "Dracula", "The Sting", or "Columbo"?
Game Hints
- The player should talk to every person in the park. Some have hints, others need help. One visitor may provide the help that you need when you find yourself stuck.
- If there is something in a tree, maybe it can be shaken out with a little "earthquake"?
