- his traumatic day.If he spots dennis he will give chase and upon catching him,
- will send him back to bed and Dennis must start all over again!
-
- Once Dennis has got out of Mr.Wilson's house,he discovers that Sam has left
- coins all over the place,and he must look all over the place, and he must find
- them all.
-
- On each level there are four large coins spread about,and one final coin
- (This is surrounded by smaller spinning coins and must be collected last).
-
- After completing all levels Dennis will meet up with Switchblade Sam.
