Has anyone managed to get that crab to stay on the red button yet? He either goes flying off the end into the water or side steps off the path into the water. Either way he ends up in the water. I've tried sneaking up on him and blinking in front of him but I'm getting nowhere fast.
Any hints please?

I've just found the solution
Blink towards the red gate, stand before the greenish path and go 1 step on the bridge, then 1 step further, then 1 step diagonal down, the scrab runs away towards the red button and into the water
This is the part where I'm now
I only need to direct the other scrab to red button and the red gate stays open. Yep this is the solution!

Thanks, everyone, but Darshan is right, no fast blinking necessary. My son Chris helped me in the end, and by using your 4 remaining blinks carefully you can guide the crab onto the button without him moving off it again.mqdar wrote:Salin wrote:Popo,:Fast blinking is the key, towards him and back.I wrote:No no no no no.

Depending on who made this level, I will have a go at a proper solution for it when I see the Floing dude again. It's develishly simple when you do it right.

so what's the solution? I did w/o much trouble the 1st time I started the game but since I quit (missed a stone key somewhere), I'm finding that I'm having MORE trouble w/ some of the lvls than the 1st time through. Guess I'm not keeping an open mind, just trying to get back to where I left off. This level (memory aid) isn't fun anymore, it's just annoying.
Help anyone?
Tks!

Ok, detailed route to get crab on button. Don't read unless you're really stuck.
Easy peasy ain't it?Start your blinks while standing on the glove, that way you have ten blinks instead of nine. Blink round the coral to the stone pillar just above the bottom coin. You should have 4 blinks left and you need them all so don't waste any.
Walk to stone pillar below crab. Walk round to get bottom left coin and back to below crab. Walk up to barrel below crab - crab goes up to stone pillar. Blink to barrel at right of crab - crab goes left to stone pillar. Blink to barrel below crab - crab goes up to stone pillar. Blink to barrel at left of crab - crab goes right to stone pillar. Walk round to collect coin at top left and back to pillar left of crab. Last blink to barrel below crab - crab goes up to button. Walk round top to get coin and down to collect the gem.

I posted this on another crab question, but it might be useful here, too.
Crab Wrangling 101
Here's tips for crab wrangling that I've learned from doing it so much:
If there are 2 or more tiles between you and the crab, he will stay in place.
SxxC -> stays
(S=Stinker, C=Crab)
If there is one tile between you, he will move in a way that puts THREE tiles between you, whether you step to that spot, or blink to it.
Start: SxxC
You move: ->SxC
End Result: SxxxC
If you move from 2 tiles between to 1 and back again, he will move in a way that puts TWO tiles between you. Again, whether you step to that spot, or blink to it, as long as you move away quickly.
Start: SxxC
You move: ->SxC
You move while he moves:<-SxC->
End result:SxxC
This applies to diagonal tiles, too.
Hope this helps you in this and the many other crab wrangling levels you'll find.

If anyone's interested I made a video of the blinking for getting the crab on the button.
