All I can think about this, is that the man who gives the guy money, wants to keep the snake as a pet, and the guy is a snake-charmer, who tamed the snake.

I guess he's not murdering humans, but animals, such as insects or rats and mice.

101- 10^2=1 it's not only moved half a line up, but also made smaller. Nevertheless a good puzzle! I think I wouldn't found it myself.
Question 3:
Those two boys are on the opposite sides of the river.

Hi Sammy I think that first puzzle is not correct: The person who was watching it on TV, was not a few feet away from the location where the bomb exploded. About the second puzzle: 101-102=1 I move the numeral "1" from 102 to 101. So 101 becomes 102, and 102 becomes 101. Then we have: 102-101=1 whic...

A bomb goes off.
Does that mean it exploded? Or it's been switched off?

In the first case:
only a few feet away,
from the location where the bomb exploded?

In that case, apparently that person was bomb-proof, or was inside some protecting bomb-proof cabin or so. :)

Hi Mark

Your welcome, but there's actually no need to thank me. I enjoy writing walkthrough's for such great levels. So thank you for creating the great levels, otherwise I couldn't write any walkthrough at all. 8)

Hi Annie

This is the hint I needed that Mark sent me:
Have the Shadow Loof get the coin in the white gate for you.
The patch of ice is the key.

It must have been a very easy Mark level or my brain has been enchanted overnight... I think it must be the latter. Wow this was quite a challenge.

True, but I don't see any complex manoeuvres needed here. Only to push a box through a gate, and if a kaboom not even opens a gate long enough to let a stinker trough, it will be never long enough for a stinker and a box.

Hi Professor Thanks!. I think from mathematical viewpoint your solution is better, because it can be used for triangles with other sizes. Also I have learned, thanks to you, that 1+2+.....+n-2+n-1+n can be calculated by the formula: n(n+1)/2 But I do not quite understand everything about your formul...

Strange things happen. I use to drink a good bottle of beer, or glass of wine. Not sure if it has to do with it, but that sphere looks different then it's supposed to be, and it also seems to be at a different place. :shock:

I think I need another glass of wine. :lol:


Thanks for the fun! :D

Hi Amnon. if the kaboom was slower, then I could let it off around the main area, so both Stinkers could walk freely and help each other between the gates on the top. You mean the kaboom could have activated the blue and green button also? Perhaps, but I think it's easier to let Stinky or Loof do th...

Wow, that was quite challenging; I needed to read the walkhtrough, and it took several restarts to do step 1. I also had tried sometghing different: Having the chomper and one kaboom in the room with the lightblue button, but that didn't work. Apparantly a kaboom walks too fast to keep the gate open...

I think it is OK that you can exit without all the coins, but I don't actually find a way to get all the coins, or with other words: I don't know how to get the boxes at the right place without jumping less then 3 times. With jumping 3 times it's either "level completed" or one character exits, and ...

Hi, I think this is actually the main-trick of the second reflector puzzle, so Warning: Do not read unless you're absolutely sure! Both reflectors should be pushed through that TP, in one very fast movement: Push the top-right reflector left into the TP, go over the conveyor and then push the top-le...

At a certain moment you have to choose: Get a coin, or use a breaktile. Make sure to make the right choice

Thanks. Also thanks to Mark, for the PM. It took me a little while more to figure out how to do it, and also to get the right timing.

The second reflector puzzle was also challenging, and needed several restarts to complete.

This was fun. Thanks! :D

I have spent a while on this level, but I'm not coming to a solution. Question:

Is the left-shooting cannon a the bottom, supposed to destroy the three woodboxes at the left, using the 2 prisms, and 2 reflectors which are close to each other?
