Tricky level

The green button was tough but after a lot of trial and error I found a way to escape the island. Thanks for the challenge and the fun

Very tricky - finally made it, thanks!

Man, I love your stuff!

This took me ages to figure out how to get Stinky out of his enclosure. The green button was no real problem after studying Loof's situation

Thanks for the challenge Mark!

Took a lot of trial and error to get Stinky out and then had to think about the green button a little while! Great level Mark!

Once I figured out how to cover the green button I was a little nervous on my first attempt, A very tricky maneuver but I made it, Excellent level Mark, Thanks for this little brainer.

Same here

This was a very tricky level, I am proud to have solved it all by myself

Thanks

Very nice puzzle!
At first, I thought much too complicated, so I found another solution

I think I'll "fix" the original solution and load it up, if I'll get your permision.

Anyway, thanks for a small little fun puzzler!

EDIT: "Small little"... Sounds strange... I think that's wrong, isn't it?

Oh, geez! How did I miss that, Mark? than ks for the hint on Stinky's release. I'm kicking myself, now! The rest fell into place just fine.

The green button wasn't too hard for me. There were only two possible ways to cover it, and one way wasn't possible after all. For me, the trickiest part was the beginning, getting Stinky out of his room. I tried every possible solution, which I'm sure you planned. As I was doing them, I knew it couldn't be that easy, and I was right.

Excellent fun challenge! Thanks!

Hi Dunc!

Have Stinky lure the Chomper to the green button.
Use the trampoline to enter the area and stand on the bridge tile behind the green button.
The Chomper will enter and stop on the button, but not touch Stinky.
Now Loof can use the ice block to roll the boulder up to the green button (killing the Chomper).
Now Stinky can collect the coins ane exit.

What? That's not how I did it

I never used the chomper. I had wondered what it was for

I just had Loof stand on the button and had Stinky push the boulder up at it, moving Loof quickly.
Amazingly, no Stinkers were hurt during this process

I had experimented with this Theo, but with the Chomper it was 100% solvable every time.
It was alot easier than having to switch characters and move quickly, which usually resulted in Loof dying each time.

This one is impossible! How do I get Stinky out of his enclosure?

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 7:46 am

Muzozavr: there's a little creature whose colour matches Stinky's button. If it could only be convinced to camouflage itself there...

Muzozavr · Post by **Muzozavr** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 7:50 am

I tried that, but Loof keeps dying.

Why didn't I think to tramp that way I'll never know. hould have checked all the options... duh.

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 12:42 pm

Wow!! Mark, your solution is so much more elegant than mine.

I also did not think about using the tramp this way, so I lured the chomper in, then Stinky was left alone with him in his room and managed to get him on the red button and be out in time with very quick fingering.

As for the second puzzle (getting out of the water room), I no longer had the chomper at my disposal, so I used the ice-cube and ball in another quick move to cover the button with the ball.

Your way, however, did not require any quick moves!
