The SS is supposed to be reached by wings, yes, but I'm not sure which BW you are referring to.

I clicked on edit, when I intended to quote. [ Seems that a Toy may be involved somehow.

There are 2 BW; One on right is for return after SS. However, after using wing power to press the Black switch, there isn't enough power to reach the SS
One on left takes to the area with Rolling rocks. Which grunt goes there?

[swietymiki]

You must have done the black switch puzzle suboptimally, as there should be just enough wing power to reach the secret. The wings Grunt is supposed to enter both of those wormholes.

Can you please tell the correct path as I just am not able to do it

[swietymiki]

On your way towards the switch, you should make use of two vertically connected non-hole tiles (on the right).

Please send the path to reach BS and return as I do not have any wing power to reach the BWH or SS

You can see the solution in an attachment to this post.

All 4 gruntz have reached their checkpoints around the swamp. Only Spring can activate the Blue switches. Which one should he go for first?

Yes, at first it does seem like only the Spring Grunt can do something meaningful. However, before you get him into action, one other Grunt needs to be moved to a Blue Hold Switch to create a path for him. Try to figure out which one.

Only warped stone holding grunt can go to the BHS on the left; but then there is no way for him to get back as the crumbling bridge disappears.

Good observation. If he uses the crumbling bridges to reach the switch from the east, there's no way for him to leave the area. But what if he could, somehow, reach the switch from the south? That would preserve the bridge and allow him to later reach the inner ring of the swamp.

Alas, I cannot find a path for the warpstone to reach the BHS from the South. There are so many missing tiles which need to be activated. But as you said, warpstone is the first grunt which makes a move so I do not what to do next!

[swietymiki]

It's a tricky one. The idea is to use your Sponge Gun Grunt, who just so happens to be on the western side of the swamp, to shoot your Warpstone Grunt through a tile with no bridge on it. After doing that you will end up on a bridge transition tile (landing dock).

[rohit]

I use Sponge gun to send warpstone to BHS no.1
Count the Blue switches clockwise from there as below (I have attached image):
BS2
Warpstone start point
BS3
BHS4
Springs start point
BHS5
SS
Wings start point
BS6
BHS7
Sponge start point

Then I send Spring to BHS4 and BS3; press BS3 twice otherwise path for Sponge is incomplete. Reach BHS7 with help of Sponge.
Wings uses SS and stands on BHS5.

I think I have to send Spring all the back to press BS3 but then there is no return path
Alternatively, I send Spring to BS6 but there is no path back

Do I send Sponge to its CP now? Is the CP of Warpstone on right of Sponge CP?

It's a good idea to take care of the Wings Grunt at this stage for sure. You should focus on creating a path to the Sponge Gun checkpoint now. Also note that if you go to Blue Switches #3 and #4 with your Grunt now without pressing them, you might not be able to reach them later. So maybe it would be better to pick a way that does not involve breaking any crumbling bridges there.

[rohit]

Let me go step by step
- I send warpstone to #1 with help of spongegun
- Spring to #2 without pressing #3 or #4
- Send Spring to #7 with help of Spongegun
- Wingz to SS and then wait on #5
- Send Sponge gun to tiles near central island
Is this ok till now?
Now where do I send Spring nest? To #4 and #3?

[swietymiki]

Seems fine so far. I think now is the right moment to move the Warpstone Grunt from his switch to the center, so that he is also able to reach his checkpoint (eventually).

[rohit]

I need to find a path for Springz to reach starting point of Warpstone but there is no way across? Please see screenshot

[swietymiki]

Yeah, I don't think that's possible at the moment - you need to keep the bridges so that the Warpstone Grunt can walk across to the center. Have you already gone to switch #7?
