I put the grows here. You don't need one under the other crab, he just helps to stop the one on the button going in that direction. With only two grows there you'll have time to go round to the transporter.

Got it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The crab was following his partner, until I ran. Thanks

Can I not get anywhere on my own

I realize the transporters are to take you to the turtles, however in order to turn them in the proper direction, you have to step on that button. I learned earlier in playing the turtle section (put crabs in wrong spot to get there) you need that bridge to get them to the next bridge.

From what I have read, I went ahead and stepped on button. I have now gotten to the coins section, but am getting frozen coming back up.

If I am doing this all correctly, I'm having trouble figuring out how to get back without getting frozen. I tried a grow, waited until it popped, but still didn't make it in time. I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

I think none of us can.

dylan1298 wrote:however in order to turn them in the proper direction, you have to step on that button. - yes, do that.

You will use 3 grows while in the transporter section, but only 2 of them to stop transporters. So, shoot the first one, ride. Wait for #1 to expire.
Shoot the second one to stop the ice flower from shooting down that long corridor.
Ride back up,
Shoot the third to stop another transporter and ride down.
Run around and down to the ice flowers. Stand between them and the one that can move will freeze the one that can't. Then, you are free to get back to the coins and again back to the turtle area.

Interesting, didn't even think of that. I will go try and see what happens. Probably be back later, as I doubt I will be able to figure out the turtles

Lisa, I admire your stick-to-it-iveness.

Can someone help me with the turtles, they are driving me nuts.

mette · Post by **mette** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:10 pm

Have you read everything in this topic? I'm a bit unclear exactly what about the turtles you need help on.

Best,
Mette

Yes. I collaped the bridge, got over there, used a turtle to reform a cross walk. Now I have 3 turtles, and 4 grows, and I do not know how to get them to make the other bridge to finish.

mette · Post by **mette** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:16 pm

OK. I see where you're at

Hope this gets you going

dylan1298 · Post by **dylan1298** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:18 pm

Yea, I kinda figured that, I just don't know how to get them there, especially with only 4 grows left.

mette · Post by **mette** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:43 pm

Oh.....sorry. I didn't read right

I only know how to do it with 5 grows

dylan1298 · Post by **dylan1298** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:45 pm

Tell me how u did it, maybe I can work around the grows.

mette · Post by **mette** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 10:49 pm

I'm sure you can't you 'my method' with only 4 grows. I placed all of them in water. In different spots. Don't see how you can work around that.....

Loirae · Post by **Loirae** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 11:23 pm

I do it with only 4 Grows. It's super hard to explain though... Let's see...
Make sure there are no other grow around first.

The three turtles you have left should be the top three. I'll number them left to right 1, 2 and 3.
Grow a lily in the water directly at the end of the brown bridge that leads to the temple.
Go to turtle #3 and stand against the west wall so as he walks north, west, and the south, he runs into you and turns East into the water, stopping diagonal from the gate.

Go to turtle #2.
As he walks North, stand at the top so that he can NOT turn West. He'll do a 180 and start going South. Run next to him, cutting him off at the wall he's heading for to force him East one step before he hits the wall. He'll go East. Turn him North, West, North so he's in Turtle #3's original spot.
Again, wait for the grow to expire. Then, grow a new lily directly under the turtle that is in the water. Go back to #2 and do the same thing you did to #3, but one step more south so he goes to the water and stops against this new grow.

The next part is easier if you have 3 grows, but since I never do, it can be done in 2. However, you need some pretty smooth walking.

Again, wait for the grow to expire. Grow a lily under turtle #2 and above the north east corner of the outcropping right near there (see image below cause it's hard to explain.
SAVE
Run to o to turtle #1. Turn him South, the direct him in the direction of #3's area East then North. But, instead of West and North into #3's alcove, Turn him East again and then stand in the spot labeled "you" in the image below so you and the lily form a corner. It will direct the turtle to the last diagonal spot. Be Careful here, the iceflower can hit you.

Takes practice because you have to make a few moves where you outrun the turtles, but doable. If you need better details, let me know.

Mette, are we counting from different places? 4 grow AFTER getting on the island. I do need 5 if you include the one it takes to get onto the island itself, but that one is placed on land. (For the very first turtle at the bottom.)

My last 4 Grows are also all in the water, and are all I need as explained above.

dylan1298 · Post by **dylan1298** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 12:34 am

Oh my god, thank you so much. I knew what I need to do, I just couldn't figure out how to do it. And my 4 grows worked too

Guinevere · Post by **Guinevere** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 9:08 am

And thank you from here too Loirae. That was unfeasibly difficult! It's taken me literally days, and all the instructions to get through it. Finally my last blue key! Now off for star #100 ...

mette · Post by **mette** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 12:30 pm

No, we are counting from the same place. I might be totally daft, but how do you make turtle#3 stop swimming?

popo · Post by **popo** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 1:25 pm

You use two grows for turtle 3, one to stop it swimming and one where Loirae shows in the picture. So you need 4 for the 3 turtles.

mette · Post by **mette** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 1:28 pm

DUH!!! I just can't count then

Loirae · Post by **Loirae** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 5:02 pm

Just woke up.

You're good then, Mette?

Erwin042 · Post by **Erwin042** » Fri Jan 09, 2009 10:36 am

I've flo back to this level
and I read I need those TWO crabs towards the button

Earlier I could get ONE crab to the button

Is two really necessary?

I can't get them near the turtle
unless I'm out of grows

I get them out and put 3 grows like a wall before the water
but then I'm stuck
Or 1 crab is staying near the wall so I can't put a grow behind him cos I can't reach that spot
or they both go in the water

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Fri Jan 09, 2009 10:52 am

They are neccesary becaus the one keeps the other on the button, and so those the two grows.

Erwin042 · Post by **Erwin042** » Fri Jan 09, 2009 11:41 pm

All I need to do is chase the crabs out of their sleeping area
and get one on the button, his mate behind him
while they are trapped around grows, I recharge
and plant just 2 grows so the first crabs can't escape

Don't the crabs run north, after the transporter, to the water then?

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 10:15 am

Only the one that's not on the button, and it doesn't matter. You need to plant 3 gows, one N and one W and one S of the button. He's mate is E of the button.

Plant a grow N of the crab? That's not possible cos that's on the turtle !!!

When I have the crab on the button and his buddy after him, I have no grows left
So I need to recharge
when I pass the corner the crab on the button runs from the button and on the turtle. So how do I get him back on the button?
luckily the grows are still in place but not for long
when I go to the gloves the grows explode

I really need some good guidence here cos I really don't know to get around the crab on his button

just found out there is "secret" passage in fire flames area
I haven't noticed this before!

So now I have it solved myself

OMG !!

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 1:34 pm

Good for you. And yes, I accidently gave you the wrong info. You need one W, and S of the crab. Sorry about that

You never noticed it??????

The first time I tried to do this level I chased the crabs through those two flames into the water at the bottom, because I thought that's where they needed to be. After chasing two crabs through without singeing them, going through on my own was a doddle.

You didn't need 3 grows anyway.
