486LIZM - Stinky Starts his Search

Peegue has been missing for so long that Stinky is worried. He knows Peegue went off to a desert island to investigate some pyramids. Stinky decides to follow.

I have no idea if this will be hard or easy for you. I think it may be a bit on the tricky side. Hope you enjoy!

I think it may be a bit on the tricky side.

Yes, it is! At least I thought so.

But it was a lot of fun figuring out how to manipulate the cannon and the prisms so I could keep those darn gates open.

Thanks Liz!

Spheres??? Where are the spheres? I could use a couple.

Spheres? What spheres? Who said anything about spheres?

Yeah -- and I bet they were green, too!

I did post a helpful sign about treasures hidden in caves!

Hey Liz,

I'm struggling with this one. Will you please PM me the first 4 steps so that I can make sure that I'm on the right track?

I need help with the start also. I have tried all ways I can think and can't get it going. Thanks

I thought it might be a bit of a stinker.

Here are the first few moves:

1. Collect coins off ice and push left prism left.
2. Step on red timer and exit the area to tramp left.
3. Tramp up and push wooden box onto conveyor.
4. Get cannon onto ice to kill off z-bot, and move cannon down to alleyway.

EDIT: I should add that the ice tile left of the red timer is key to leaving the prism area. And key to entering it on one occasion.

Hey Liz I need help finishing this one. I got the first part I hope its correct but I just don't know what to do now. I have all the prisms going over the timers. I have the cannon in the room with the white button. I know I need somehow to blow the boxes in there but with the prisms in the other room I know I must have something wrong. Am I wrong in thinking they are to keep the timers for the gates going. I don't think I will get this one without more help.

Thanks

Annie
Hold the help. I think I saw the answer as soon as I asked for help. I hope I have it now.

I finally got the ending right. It took some hard thinking, but it was a fun level. I would of never figured out the opening move alone though. Thanks

A humdinger from start to finish.
Loved the whole set up for the prisms and cannons, thanks for the challenge Liz and do carry on.

Thanks for playing everyone!

For anyone who needs it, here is the complete walkthrough:

486LIZM – STINKY STARTS HIS SEARCH

WALKTHROUGH

Note that the ice tile left of the red timer is key to accessing this area.
1. Collect coins from ice and push left prism left. Step on red timer and wait in red gate until it’s safe to go left over the tramp. Tramp up and push the wooden box onto the conveyor. This starts the conveyor. Collect 2 coins from top.
2. Tramp down onto wooden box, then tramp U, U, L. Push cannon right over tramp onto ice. If you’re lucky the z-bot gets killed right away, if not, jump over and push the cannon round onto the red button, stepping on and off the pink button until the z-bot is gone. Push the cannon down into the alley.
3. Push the right prism right onto the light blue timer. Slide round the ice and push the left prism down and the prism in the wall left onto the conveyor. Slide onto the red timer and exit the area to tramp left and push the prism on the wooden box down into the dark blue TP. Tramp U, U, L again and push the top prism up and right over the tramp and onto the ice. This opens the pink gate, so quickly walk down and push the lower prism right onto the wooden box. Tramp U, U, L again and walk R through the cave, pushing the concealed steel box R, D onto the conveyor timer. Then tramp right onto the ice and step down quickly. Exit the area via the red gate to tramp L and push the prism down through the dark blue TP. The timers are now all activated.
4. Now you can access the cannon. Push it all the way left, and go back up round the top. When all the left boxes are gone push the cannon down the ice curve to blow the top wooden box and quickly push it 1xR. Collect the 2 bonus coins from the left wall and fill the water with the 2 boxes. If you don’t have quick fingers you may find it easier to push the lower box left 1 space, push the middle box up and into the water, and then use the cave walls to push the lower box right, up round the ice and into the water. Cannon goes on white button.
5. Walk back the way you came to the prism area. Use the left ice tile to slide up when safe and then push a prism down into the alley. Push the prism R through the light blue TP, follow and push it down to the bottom right corner next to the cave. Go back through the dark blue TP, onto the ice and step down quickly. Bring the other prisms through the same way. I place them in this order, you may do it differently. a) left of lower box. b) left of path opposite lower box. c) left of top box. d) left of middle box. After the cannon fires, push b) prism into line of fire and take cover to the left of the cannon.
6. Collect all coins. As you collect the bottom bonus coin the conveyor pushes the boulder in the cave up the ice, through the TPs to activate the timers. EXIT.

Hey Liz,

Whew!

I finally made it through without getting killed!

Thanks for the superior level and the walkthrough. I needed it to help me put that one prism where it needed to go.

Finally - took me ages! I must agree with Kiki. Thanks!
