Dr. Bunsen Honeydew helps Gonzo by giving him words that he can use to build machines; Gonzo can use the machines to overcome various obstacles on his way to the castle. Gonzo travels through various locations on his quest, including Chickago, Yellowyolk National Park, Carlsbird Caverns and the Hen-a-layin' Mountains.
