Spiked Shyster

Spiked shyster is a Maxis-made cell found in the Cell Stage at Level 2.

It is the fastest carnivorous cell in Level 2, and is related to the shyster and won't attack it. It has the same secret jaw as punky, but is hard to see because the mouth is so small and the spike is so large.

Spiked shysters are hard to defeat since they have spikes on their front, making frontal assaults difficult, though it is possible to outmaneuver them and land attacks from the sides as long as the player has spikes of their own. It's better to just run away until they give up. They are aggressive and will give chase as soon as the player enters their vicinity. They run away when hit and make a “uhu... herariyano, ayeearhaaa aa” noise.
