Gaby.. the shieldz grunt will chase you across the sand pit... and if you notice, he will stay on the same horizontal row as you are. The trick is to get him to step on the BOT after you have cleared the black pyramids!  |

That's right, Gaby, I DID get this far....the trick is to let shieldz follow you across the bridge, and when you get to the BOTS, step around it, he will walk right over it and be trapped. Just make sure you get your grunt off the black pyramid before he steps on the switch, otherwise you'll be squashed! I am down with the other four....having crossed the pool with toobz, who stood on the blue hold switch so the shovelz and barehanded could cross too...and all three stood on the purple switchez...to allow strawz to enter this area... When I played this level before, I didn't quite know what to do...so I ran through it without sucking up any goo, WRONG....I need another grunt later...so...what do I have to do here? How can I kill the four purple swordz, and the gunhatz, and still suck up all that goo, without getting killed myself!!!  |

The gunhatz will help you out on the purple swordz if they're in his range.

If I just stand near the swordz, outside the spikez, will the gunhatz automatically shoot at them instead of me? OR, do I have to go inside the spikez, in which case, I'll be slammed by the swordz in two swipez...?  |

You won't have to cross the spikes until everything has turned to goo. Then break out the straw!

It's amazing what you can do with a little help! Thanks! BUT NOW, I am stuck again! (What a concept!) First, all four gruntz at the top are at the orange switch....only three can get by without getting stuck... AND, if I send gauntletz and springz down to cross the crumble/orange bridge...gauntletz getz across, breakz the brickz on the little island in the middle, leaving the orange tilez for springz to cross. Springz goes up and triggerz the bombz...but he only breakz the two lower rockz to the right there, and while that allowz gunhatz to cross into the area, it strandz all three...how do I get springz to get bombz to break the rockz to the south of the secret switch, without setting off the BOTS? Or, what am I supposed to do here, and at the top where the other grunt is stranded? AND, just to play ahead a little....lookz like a big battle coming up...four gruntz and four gruntz with spellz...do I have to kill all thoze swordz? Step on the purple switchez (I'll be one short won't I?) and still have a grunt left over to go and get the warpstone? SO CLOSE, I CAN SMELL THE VICTORY!!!!  |

Re the orange pyramid/switch. If you were able to lower the orange pyramid so 3 could get by, you should be able to lower it so the other one can get by, once HE steps on the orange switch!!!!!!
On the bombz grunt, you don't want him to break the blocks to the south.. the gauntletz should be able to do that once he leaves his island. If you could only find the switch that releases those tiles... maybe someone is standing on it?

First, all four gruntz at the top are at the orange switch....only three can get by without getting stuck... I believe you will find there is a way to get all of your Gruntz past the Orange Pyramidz. Use the Force (er, GunHatz), Luke (er, WalkingBear)! Judicious use of the ORange Switchez should get everyone across safely. Twelve enemy Sword Gruntz = enough Goo for 3 friendly newly-baked Gruntz. Let no enemy Gruntz' Goo be wasted ... which impliez "keep your GooberStraw Grunt healthy at all costs!" It is possible to defeat all twelve enemy Gruntz with no friendly Grunt being lost ... with a lot of SAVEz every time you make a successful foray against enemy Sword Gruntz. |

Sorry about the orange switch problem, that was an oversight (or undersight) on my part... Ready to kill some enemies and make some goo!! |

It's alright...I just found the switch  thank you... |

I killd the swordz will gunhatz... and got the ball... your first hint was a life saviour... 
I try to put the shildz enemy on the BOT but he keeps on the chase... how can I lure him to stay there without to commit suicide (the springz does not jump over ...) 
... all the arrowz are leading to the quicksand
