I had played Sizzlin' 7 before and couldn't get the "W" in that area with all the bricklaying gear and gauntletz. I downloaded "8", played it again, and although I got all the coins this time I still couldn't find the secret to get the "W". I really am trying to get better at finding the secrets, but I'm looking for hints again  |

Perhaps you didn't use the SuperSpeed PowerUp wisely? There is a lonely Tile out of your path to a Coin and a Wormhole; why is it there?

I did use the powerup, got the coin and the blue wormhole takes you back to the big stack of sugar cubes leading to the next section. No way from there to get to the "w" tho'.

The best-designed Secretz are the onez that use techniquez such as this ... something innocuous, yet definitely out of place! Always look for such thingz as a Tile only reachable by passing over Spikez (without Springz) with nothing (obvious) of value in them ... or a Tile with no apparent purpose.  |

I sometimes get a bit dyslexic, and make a stab at F5, when I intended to hit F8 ... a world of difference, there! |

That particular sub-puzzle is probably a direct cause for the balding that is beginning to show on my head. "If I live through this, remind me to send the designer of this game some ![]() mail!" You must determine the path of the Rolling Rock through the Arrowz, and which Yellow Toggle Switch controlz which Two-Way Arrow ... that's a snap! Then you must determine when to step on YTSz and Orange Up/Down Switchez (and with which Grunt!) in order to send the RR over each Green Toggle Switch once (or an odd number of timez, for the upper one). Definitely not 'a snap'! |

So Gaby, did you find the solution  I've been trying for several hours now. I know I did it once before but I can't remember what I did (last Sept.) My wrist is starting to hurt so I'm gonna quit for now but if you have anything to share, I'll be back tomorrow. Looking for a small hint at least |

View the map!
... after I put all the new gruntz on the checkpoint... got the gauntletz from the left platform... I cannot get the right timing to go further...
