I found which coin I missed and I still missed it because I cannot figure out how to get it. It is behind the iron pyramidz above the resurrecting wizard and below the rolling ballz wizard. I feel like there must be a red warp or secret switch somewhere, but the statz page tells me that I got all the secrets. How the heck do you get it?  Nevermind, I think I just figured it out.  I did have the same problem to get that coin, till i move the wizard near that coin and did magic  I've noticed that puddle straight away Orange Goo puddle is really in stark contrast to white, snowy ground  Even when only a little part of it sticks out from beneath the tree. |

Then you must have very good eyes, because it's only about a few pixels visible from beneath the tree.  Thanks Gaby, it's good to know that my CL is liked. As a side note, because it just came to my mind - is it only me, or those permanent rolling balls near the rolling balls wizard (those two ones that you must past by in a row) seems to have a bit different position each time I open the level? It was a couple of times when they were in almost impassable position, while for others they were rather easily passable... |

Rolling Rockz may have different speedz (per tile), and they may have different number of tilez to cross. Either (or both!) conditionz would change the pattern of any multiple Rolling Rockz puzzle. But the patternz will repeat ... unless the Designer usez an irrational number (such as PI) for the speedz. |

But the patternz will repeat ... unless the Designer usez an irrational number (such as PI) for the speedz. Well, both rocks has 1000 speed (one tile per second), although one has 8 tiles to move while other has 9. They do repeat their positions after loading the level, but this position seems to be a bit different each time I start the level. Quite odd, but so far, I've always been able to pass this part, although it required a few tries sometimes... |

I only have one baked gruntz and it appears I need two. But my strawz cant kill the sword gruntz cause one little can of zap cola doesnt help against each one. Why did the black pyramids not go down around the magic aurmor?

Why did the black pyramids not go down around the magic aurmor? Sneak around the enemy Gruntz carrying the 'butter knivez' to do battle with the punch-drunk Gruntz in the next section. When you press the Black One-Time Switch there, you will be able to go bacfk for the Reactive Armor. |

It seems that adding a walkthrough for this level is strongly recommended for some folks... too bad that I'm definitely unfamiliar with creating walkthroughs in HTML. I can provide some walkthrough in TXT format, but not in HTML, and someone should check this later for grammar mistakes, as my texts in English usually has some.

Use the skeleton HTML componentz, and edit them with a simple text editor, such as NotePad. It takez longer than if one has an HTML editor (such as EvrSoft's 1st Page 2000), but it definitely can be done using 'cut' and 'paste', copying from code that is correct to create new linez. |

When I verified the playability of this CL I made the mistake of SAVE-ing and looking around when I reached the Springz mini-puzzle. BIG MISTAKE! You are in a 'horse race' with the Rolling Snow Ball  to the left, and must anticipate the rising of a Toggling Bridge  tile between Springz  and the next Landing Dock  , stable Bridge  Tile or Blue Toggle Switch  on your way to the final Landing Dock  and the Black One- Time Switch  (that raisez  a Black Pyramid  in front of the RSB , which meanz you won the race). |

Well... indeed I could add some optional version (optional, because original version is solvable, just do your best to be quick and don't wait anywhere for more than one sequence of toggling bridges), although not sure what GooRoo thinks about it. For now on, you can try two solutions: 1. Use easy mode (no Perfect score in this case, though); 2. Edit the level for yourself. Download GLE, open it, then open the level in it (File->Open), turn on Object Mode (Edit->Object Mode), find this pesky rolling ball on the screen, click RMB on it, and change value of Speed from 850 into 1500 or 2000 (no, seriously, greater value means slower ball). Or, if you want, delete the ball at all. After doing the desired change, click the diskette icon and restart the level in-game. Good luck. EDIT: Dang... I was too slow with my post.  |

Because he's supposed to. At least one of the enemy gruntz must receive a mobile toy and get drowned in the mud in order to make Toy Wizard free. After that, obviously, you must go to the buttons and close the way behind you by black switch, so enemies will not pursue you after the toy breaks.
