I just re-uploaded the walkthrough, now through move 49 (square g6) of 64. (I need to take a break from walkthroughz for a while, and go to the Post Office to check on postage costs to certain destinations. I will probably do a few more squarez today, and will re-upload again when I am through with it (for the day  ). |

A liitle help please. I am in section 12 according to your walkthrough. Where my shovel gruntz has all the holes which uncover four blue switches and some coins and power-ups. I can't get the blue switches right in order to go through the bridges in the next section. It is impossible for you (or anyone!) to get all of the Bridge Stepping Stonez into the raised position at the same time. You will need "a little help from your friends(?)", in order to cross the Bridge. |

you've got to release the disgrunt at the corner so he will do the job for you... you have to dig all the holez at the center then step on the north east BS ... dig out the powerup that's diagonal to the BW (don't use it yet)... then go and fill the hole that's near the disgrunt and quicly get the powerup and go through the BW... good luck...

Look around for a Grunt that is free to move that has a depressed Orange Up/Down Switch in his square. Have him step on it! |

Sorry ... I should have said a non-depressed OU/DS ... one that will cause an action when it is stepped upon.

In the square where you created a new Grunt and gave him a Spongegun, to dispose of the enemy Sword Grunt in the square to the southwest ... there is not an OU/DS to press? Or in the GOOROO"S" square where you also created a new Grunt with a Spongegun ... no OU/DS to press? (I didn't think it was possible to leave the Digger'z square's Orange Pyramidz in the 'up' state, without having a Grunt somewhere who could step on a Switch and lower them!

I know I'm a nuisance ... it is probabley my fault... I left the 'O' in up status (there is no one there)... but it's the 'S' square I'm talking about with the GCP and the spongegun in it that's not working...

You should have a Spongegun Grunt in g5, where there is an OU/DS (letter 'O') and another Spngegun Grunt in g7, where there is also an OU/DS (letter 'S'). One of those Switchez should be raised,, and the other depressed. Have a Grunt step on the raised one.

What happened to the Grunt (that should have been) in g5? You needed him to encourage the Boxer Grunt to weave his way through the Rolling Rock, and over to the "?" Switch! If the Grunt in g7 stepz on his Switch, the Switch in g5 will raise. Pressing the g5 Switch should clear the way. I have errandz to do right now, but when I get back I will thoroughly re-read your postz on your current problem. (I am confused as to where you actually are. ) |

the spongegun in g5 left his post earlier... before the boxing part... maybe that's why this part was so difficult for me to solve... ... I restart the game... and try this time to do thingz the right way... ... thank you for your patience with a pest like me... |

The walkthrough available in the first post in this thread is now complete, as far as the 'normal' play is concerned. I do not have instructionz for all of the Secretz, though ... the solverz may provide that help for a while longer. BTW, the printout of the walkthrough is 17 pages of standard (8-1/2 X 11 inch) paper. |

There is a raised Orange Up/Down Switch somewhere, with a Grunt in the square able to step on it. Not all of the Orange Switchez/Pyramidz are interconnected fully. Some Switchez only control some Pyramidz ... but there is a control available that will lower those Pyramidz. You just have to first raise it (if it is depressed) by stepping on a paired Switch, then when you step on it, it will lower the Puyramidz that are causing you problemz.
