No R Left Behind

B is trapped and a cruel witch has placed a spell on all of the Rs that were visible. The Rs have been changed into zapper Rs and although the Rs are Bs friends, they can't get too close. The Rs want to help B get to the win in order to break their spell. An easier version is also posted below.

      The Springboard Stairs maneuver is required.
      Stand B on the top of the stairs, tap on the ground behind B and immediately tap on the ground in front of B.
      If Rs get stuck together, hold the draggable under them to spilt up
      Sandwich the Rs for a Ball Drop
      Low ceiling or fans will help B pass inset stairs
      R can't pass inset stairs if there is nothing under them
      R gets dizzy and walks unpredictability if spun

      As per the storyline nothing is matched

      @Pds - Please explain?

      @gmacpro I can speak for me: first of all, your level is very clever and puzzling.Even if I lost the count of the times I replayed it, I enjoyed figuring all hints one at time by myself.
      But now I find it very frustating to complete the last part because of the Springboard Stair. Failing it can lead to:
      • getting stuck on the grass block
      • bumping out of the diorama:oops:
      • bumping out of the grass block to repeat the Springboard, but it only works once (apparently the second time the slider can't bump me:mad:)
      That being said, I will keep on trying (the easier version) hoping something about this permanent fail step can be done

      @tebkanlo - I'm glad you are playing and sorry to hear about your frustration. If you got to the SS (stairs) then you're almost done. The SS jump works every time for my B but if you miss, you can climb back to the stairs over the stone pillars.
      1. I can see that one could get stuck on the grass block but I've never.
      2. "bumping out of the diorama" - Are you telling me that you are falling off the grass to the left of the metal pillars while doing the SS or getting knocked off entering the red structure?
      3. The last bullet - I'm not sure what you mean when you talk "2nd time the slider can't...."

      Thanks for playing.

      @gmacpro after I fall on the grass block the only option is to try to use the near slider to "belly bump" (as you said in Look then Act) you on the stone pillars so to climb back to the stairs.
      But sometimes it can go wrong:
      • belly bumping too hard can push you out of the diorama
      • bumping out of the grass block to repeat the Springboard, but it only works once (apparently the second time the slider can't bump me:mad:) it can happens to land on the grass too close to the stairs, so being too far from the edge to let the slider bump working"

      I know that the Springboard Stair maneuver is done by tapping on point 1 and suddenly tap 2, hoping to land on 3-4 when the timing is right.

      But in my case, most of the times, I land on 2. And in this situation sliding the metal platform back and forth is necessary in order to bump B's belly (around the point x), so to let B land on the near stone pillar block.[/URL]

      But this technique can even backfire by:
      • bumping B too hard

      • getting B stuck there in a weird position. Even if I'm in point 2, for some reasons B's belly is not wobbling anymore and sliding back and forth get no effect.
        • maybe because the metal wall is next to B (image below) or because B almost landed on the eye of R in point 3, but get pushed back too much

        PS: No idea why the forum doesn't let me reply to you in the message, as if he doesn't want post pictures/link o_O

      @tebkanlo - Great - thanks for the pictures as that helps a lot. First, you can reply with pictures in a message but you need to make 2 or 3 posts in the forum to validate your membership and remove the spam filters.

      So your first comment regarding SS isn't actually right IMO. I just tried your method and I can't get B to jump. Look at my picture. With B on 2, tap 1 and then 3 and B will land in 4 or 5 or B will not go. If this is what you are doing and you are still landing on 3 then I don't know?

      Your idea of a Belly Bump was clever but like you said, too hard and you are out of play. Let me know how you do and if you keep landing on the grass, I'll add a way off just for you.

      Here's a level previously posted that you can practice the Springboard Stairs on:

      @tebkanlo - Here's your own version with SS grass assist. Enjoy.

      Thanks, for your suggestions, I already have tried 3x2 .1 with all the results 3 4 5

      I think the result of SS is all about timing, like you said, if the timing is very wrong, B will stop. I'm surprised your never landed on 3, your timing must be very good.

      About Belly Bump, it works pretty great when B wobbles. Maybe in can work perfectly in a space bigger than one block as in point 3, since if B belly is not affected by the slider you can reposition B by moving back and forth (or at least this worked for me when I used it in Look then Act)

      @tebkanlo - The Belly Bump is like the Shoulder Bump but the Shoulder Bump works only if B is moving and it works on the 1st attempt.

      Landing on 3 isn't possible for me. B has been stopped many times but if I get 2 circle taps then B will get 4 or 5.

      Enjoy your level.

      Finally got B there!:D
      But just in the Easier Version:confused:
      passing on 3 zapping Rs after all that work... it's too much
      As I said I appreciate both the puzzle and your help, yet I'm sorry, if the Easier was a published level I would give full score
