Fender Ketchup walkthrough

A problem at the casino

Go to the Four Dragons Casino on the Strip. Woozie is on the phone and a casino manager is shouting about wrecked slot machines. Woozie explains that the corporations have moved in and that three mob families are squeezing the casino. He wants CJ to deal with one of their men, a lawyer who is behind the trouble.

Find Johnny

Woozie tells CJ to tie the man to the front of a car and scare him a little. CJ finds Johnny Sindacco bound to the bonnet of a red Feltzer outside the casino. Get into the driver’s seat. A Scare-O-Meter appears at the side of the screen, and it fills as Johnny gets more frightened.

Scare him

Drive fast, skid through bends and swerve around the Strip to make the meter rise. Johnny shouts and curses more as it fills. Avoid head-on collisions, because they kill him and fail the mission. Slowing down too much empties the meter, and if the car flips onto its roof, Johnny panics and burns when you get out.

Back to the casino

Keep off the expressway around the casino, because that earns a three-star wanted level. When the meter is full, a message tells you to bring Johnny back to the casino. Drive back and stop in front. Johnny is untied and CJ gets out to finish the mission.
