Before this, the whole game was covered two ways:

• one play test per level, each opened fresh;
• the app's run from a new game to the credits (app::play::tests::the_whole_game_from_new_to_the_credits), which ends each level by finishing its ending cinematic for it.

Nothing yet played the whole campaign through.

the_whole_game_by_play does. It starts from a new game's progress:

1. The first piece. Reptar Puzzle gives it on the first entry to the hub (+0x30 bit 4, 0x80094bfc(1)), as the app does then.
2. Each door, in an order a player can take: 2, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, the golf course (25), then 3, 4, 6, and last the bonus doors 13 and 18. Doors 3, 4 and 6 open only with Mirrorland won. In the hub, opened with the progress so far, through_door finds the door's placement (LP +0x42), puts Tommy before it facing it, and presses Triangle. The exit must lead to that level.
3. The level, opened with that progress as the game opens it (from the hub), won by the same play as its own test. Each level test's body is now a win_N helper (win_box_toss for 20 and 21, win_golf for the course), and win_level picks it.
4. Progress::finish records the win. Any bonus level it opens (the count's 20, 15, 21 and 17) is played straight after, as the game goes there.
5. With all twelve pieces, Reptar 2010 is played to City Hall.

The run plays 2, 5, 20, 9, 15, 10, 11, 21, 12, the golf course, 17, 3, 4, 6, then 7. It ends with twelve pieces, every main and bonus level won.

The first try took the doors in number order. Door 3 could not be found after level 2: it is shut until Mirrorland, as in the original.

All tests pass.
