The Incredible Toon Machine FAQ by Lord Seth Yay! Yet another FAQ by me about a game most people have never heard of! Contact information: lseths@yahoo.com I. Intro II. Version History III. FAQ IV. Walkthrough i. Cake Walk ii. All Brawn, No Brains iii. Really, REALLY Hard iv. LOONEY BIN! V. Legal Stuff and Credits I. Intro Okay, so you're probably asking "Why write an FAQ about a game that's about a decade old?". Well, first off, I think every game should have at least one FAQ, and GameFAQs doesn't have an FAQ for this game (at least not when I originally posted this). Secondly, this is one of the hardest of all of The Incredible Machine games, so it thus needs a guide the most. Thirdly, I bought "The Incredible Toon Machine Hint Book" (it may be called "hints", but it gives all the answers) from Sierra separately, and since some aren't lucky enough to have it, I feel I should share the knowledge. Anyway, just so you know, I'm not going to bother with saying what the goal of each level is, or what parts you get for each level. Why? Because if you're playing the darn game you'd know that! I'm likewise not going to bother with what all the parts do, because it says that all in the instruction booklet and it's not that hard to figure out. It's all in the Tutorial anyway. Also, please, please, PLEASE try your very hardest to solve the puzzles before looking at this FAQ. You get a much better feeling if you solve it yourself than by looking at this FAQ. NOTE: I have the MACINTOSH version of The Incredible Toon Machine. While I think it and the PC version are essentially identical, I feel I should mention that, just in case. II. Version History 1.03: Added a new site to which this can be uploaded. (10/26/04) 1.02: Corrected the mistake where I listed Puzzle 67 (Minimalist) as Puzzle 66 and corrected the mistake where I said the name of Minimalist was "Al Eats Sid". Added another FAQ question. (10/24/04) 1.01: Realized that I had forgotten to put contact information in the FAQ, and added it. (10/21/04) 1.0: Initial Release (10/20/04) III. FAQ Q: Can you tell me what is at the bottom of each page in the handbook? A: Sadly, no. Sierra has that in there for legal reasons. Now, I feel for you if you need it and have lost the handbook and you actually bought the game, but while this game isn't being made anymore, I'm still worried about giving out information that may be illegal. If you need it, try ordering the game off the internet. I really would love to give it to you, but can't. Q: I solved a puzzle and want to see the "official" solution. How do I do that? A: Go to HomeToons and load the puzzle. You can only do this if you've actually solved the puzzle, of course. Q: When I won the game and saw the little concert, the game quits suddenly! Is that supposed to happen? A: Well, it happened to me. Once Al puts his hand on the floor the game just quits. I don't know if this is a bug or if it's supposed to happen. If anyone has any information about this, PLEASE tell me. Oh, and since you see that when you open the game after beating it, just click while in the middle of it to skip it and not have the game quit. Q: I tried solving the puzzle the way you said, but it didn't work! Why? A: Try moving the parts around slightly. It might be because they're off by a little. Q: What does the entire Mystery Message say? A: You should be able to solve it yourself, but here's what it says: "TRY ROMKO ALL NEW GUIDED MISSILES". Q: I think I found a mistake in your guide. How do I tell you about it? A: My e-mail address is lseths@yahoo.com. And if you think you've found a problem, PLEASE tell me! I don't care if it's just a misplaced apostrophe! However, make sure that it actually is an error, and the problem isn't on your end. Q: Why didn't you list the goals of each level, or what parts you're given to work with? A: Did you read the Introduction? III. Walkthrough Here's what I do in the walkthrough. I say what to do first. I have the "what happens" because you may be a little confused as to where to put the part based on what I say, so that way you can sort of double-check it. i. Cake Walk Puzzle 1: Introducing... Sid & Al! What To Do: See the hole in the candy cane incline? Put another candy cane incline between them (make sure you stretch it out) to fill up the gap. Then place the ball at the very top of the thatched straw incline. What Happens: The ball rolls down, opening all of the message machines. Puzzle 2: Introducing... Eunice!

What Happens: Al spits out the hairball at the first catapult, which then will throw a rock at the second, which then will throw a rocket at the third, which will throw a rock at Sid, hitting him. Puzzle 7: Electro-Ramp 1 What To Do: Take two inclines (don't rotate or stretch them) and use them to fill in the hole in the inclines to the upper left. Then take the other two inclines, flip them, and use them to fill the hole between the lower-right incline and the wall where Al is. What Happens: The ball hits Cliff Ant, and he starts the conveyer belt. The ball goes under the Electro-Ramp, which causes it to turn. The anvil falls down, goes down the incline and Electro-Ramp, and hits Al. Puzzle 8: Magnifying Glass What To Do: Place the Magnifying Glass between Sid and Al. What Happens: Sid scares Al with the Magnifying Glass. Al runs off, and Sid eats the cheese. Puzzle 9: Electro-Ramp II What To Do: Have the Electro-Ramp slope down to the left, then place it underneath the carpet. It may take a little fine-tuning to do it.

Level 25: Chow-Man What To Do: Place a Chow-Man Motor above the conveyer belt that has a fish on it, and then put an egg above the Chow-Man Motor's tray. Then connect the Chow-Man Motor to the conveyer belt. What Happens: Chow-Man eats the egg and moves the Fish to Al. Puzzle 26: Pop Goes the Pistol What To Do: Place the ball above the Teeter-Totter, then use rope to connect the right side of the Teeter-Totter to the pulley, and then to the pistol. What Happens: The ball flips the Teeter-Totter, causing both pistols to hit Sid and Al. Puzzle 27: Black Ball Bomb What To Do: Put a bomb in the "hole" in the house and put the ball above Bik. What happens: The ball hits Bik, and he blows up the bomb, setting Sid and Al free (in a manner of speaking, anyway) Puzzle 28: Programming Hildegard What To Do: Put a Hildegard beneath the Beachball and program her to lay two eggs. What Happens: The Beachball hits Hildegard and she lays an egg, and then the other ball hits her and she lays another. Both hit Sid. Puzzle 29: Place a Skeleto-Bobbin on the screen (it has to be close to the gears) and connect it to the right-most gear with a belt. Then connect it to the Trap door with rope. What Happens: Cliff Ant turns the gears, so the Skeleto-Bobbin starts turning and opens the Trap Door, dropping the bomb on Al. Level 30: Trans-Roto-Matic What To Do: Place a Trans-Roto-Matic in the "cave" above the one already on the screen. Connect it to the conveyer belt with a belt, then connect it to the Teeter-Totter with rope through the Pulley. What Happens: Hildegard gets hit by the ball and lays an egg. The eggs hit the Teeter-Totter and bounce back at her, hitting her again and causing her to lay more eggs. Each time the Cheese and Banana are moved a little closer to Sid and Al. This continues until Sid and Al have been fed. ii. All Brawn, No Brains Puzzle 31: Tunnel Hopping What To Do: Put Cheese on the ledge to the right of Sid, and then another Cheese to the left of the bottom ladder, and then finally one more above the conveyer belt. Place two bombs on the skeleton platforms. Put an outlet underneath the ball and plug the Timer into it. What Happens: The Cheese, Banana, and Bubble Gum attract Sid and get him where you want him. Meanwhile, Bik blows up the bombs, disposing of Al. Sid ends up going into the bottom tunnel. NOTE: If the bombs knock the conveyer belt Cheese off the screen, try moving the Cheese to the right some. Puzzle 32: Look Out Below! What To Do: Place a Scissors in front of Sid and put Bik Dragon under the suspended anvil. What Happens: Sid pulls the scissors and the anvil falls on Bik. Bik blows up the bomb, and the anvil falls on Al. Puzzle 33: Hungry Eunice What To Do: Place a Scissors in front of Al and connect the left side of the left-most Teeter-Totter to the Trap Door Sid is on. What Happens: Al uses the scissors to cut the rope. The anvil falls onto the Teeter-Totter and in turn flips the other Teeter-Totter. This opens the trap door. Eunice sees Sid, turns around, and eats the peanut. Level 34: Clobber the Critters What To Do: Use the inclines to bridge the gaps in the inclines, then put the ball underneath the trap door (but not immediately underneath: You need to have it hit the trap door after a little while). Knowing where to put the remaining two inclines is tricky. Watch to see where the Electro-Ramp is after it flips so you know where to put the inclines so the ball hits Al, but they both should be stretched the farthest they can be. What Happens: The rock goes down the inclines and triggers the Electro-Ramp, then hits Sid. Meanwhile the Striped Super Ball will have hit the trap door and sent the ball on it tumbling down. It will roll down the Electro-Ramp and onto the inclines you placed, and hit Al. Puzzle 35: Thumpin' and Bumpin' What To Do: Put the Bubble Gum underneath the Trap Door, then place a pin (sharp side facing down) to the upper right of the cheese. What Happens: Sid eats the Bubble Gum and flies up, opening the Trap Door. Sid hits the Pin, deflates, and then eats the Cheese. Puzzle 36: Oh What A Life! What To Do: Put a Thumpulator to the left of the top-most Fish, and then stretch it out so there are three. Put an egg on the incline in the upper right, place the ball on the right-most part of the Conveyer Belt, and use inclines to allow the Fish to reach Al. What Happens: The egg hits the Thumpulator, pushing the first Fish off. The egg then reaches Chow-Man, who eats it and causes the remaining two balls to hit the Thumpulator, knocking off the remaining two Fish. All of the Fish land on the incline and slide down to Al. Puzzle 37: Cat Splat What To Do: Put a Scissors in front of Sid and place an incline (sloping down to the left) underneath the Anvil and to the right of Hildegard. What Happens: Sid pulls on the scissors to break the rope. The Anvil hits Hildegard, who lays an egg on Al. Puzzle 38: YEEEOUCH!!! What To Do: Put Bubble Gum on the right side of the platform Sid is on, then put an incline (sloping down to the left) above it. What Happens: Sid goes over and eats the Bubble Gum. The incline moves him over to the right and shuts off the Timer. Puzzle 39: Cheese Chase What To Do: Put Bubble Gum in front of Sid, then put a ladder just to the right of the pin. The ladder should start at the bottom of the floor and go up to the floor to the right of the pin. Put a banana to the right of the tunnel. Put a ladder to the right of the bottom-left tunnel. The ladder starts at the bottom "floor" and goes up to the wooden floor. Place a banana on the platform to the right of where the ladder is, and then one to the right of the tunnel near there. Place a banana to the right of the ladder next to the middle tunnel. What Happens: Sid eats the Bubble Gum, floats up, and deflates when he reaches the pin. He then climbs the ladder and goes after the Banana and enters the tunnel. He exits the Tunnel and climbs the ladder, then goes right because of the Banana. He then enters the tunnel, climbs the ladder, eats the Banana (not to mention fry Al), climb the ladder, and reach the Cheese. Puzzle 40: The Mice Will Play What To Do: Place a Cheese to the left of the top-most Tunnel, to the left of the top of the left ladder, to the left of the top of the right ladder, and to the upper right of the bottom Tunnel (you can't fit the Cheese next to it, so you you place it above and let the Cheese fall there). Place a Tunnel JUST to the right of the bottom Sid and put the other end to the right of the middle Sid. Finally, place the last bit of Cheese to the upper right of the bottom-left Tunnel (in the same way you did for the other Cheese near the bottom). What Happens: The top Sid sees the Cheese and enters the Tunnel. When he comes out, he climbs the ladder and enters the lower Tunnel. He then exits the end of the Tunnel, climbs down the ladder, and enters the Tunnel and goes to the attic. Note that all Sids do this, the other two just have shorter paths. Puzzle 41: Feed Me! What To Do: Put a Scissors in front of Al. Attach a rope to the bottom side of the Teeter-Totter and attach it (via the pulleys) to the Trap Door. Place the electrical outlet underneath the Trap Door and plug the Hair Dryer into it. Lastly, put an incline of 3-lengths above Eunice. What Happens: Al pulls the scissors. The Anvil falls on the Teeter-Totter, causing the Trap Door to open. The ball turns on the Hair Dryer, pushing the Fish to the left, and it will end up in front of Eunice. Meanwhile, the ball falls onto Eunice and she blows the Fish to the left. The Fish reaches Al and he eats it. Puzzle 42: Pin Cushion Kitty What To Do: Put a Scissors to the right of the Catapult so it'll cut the rope holding the Balloon down. Use rope to connect the upper part of the Teeter-Totter to the Trap Door. Place Eunice (facing right) underneath the Trap Door. Eunice needs to be close enough to Al to blow him all the way. What Happens: Sid goes for the Cheese and pushes the Baseball off the ledge. The Baseball hits Cliff Ant, who moves the Rock onto the Catapult. The Catapult fires the rock and it hits the Scissors. The Scissors cut the rope and the Balloon hits the Teeter-Totter, causing the Trap Door to open. It hits Eunice and she blows Al to the Pin. Puzzle 43: Al Goes Ballistic What To Do: Place Cheese to the right of Sid, then put Cheese to the right of the bottom side of the right-most Ladder. Put Cheese on the Skeleton floor. Put a "/" Teeter-Totter underneath the Skeleton floor (but make sure that part sticks out into the gap). Connect the bottom part of the Teeter-Totter through the Pulleys to the Trap Door. What Happens: Sid may like Bananas, but he likes Cheese even more! Sid will go for the Cheese and Al will get the Banana. Sid taunts Al and runs off (going down the ladder) and Al will go after Sid but slip on the Banana. Sid will meanwhile go after the Cheese and climb up the ladder, then go to the left (for the Cheese) and walk onto the Teeter-Totter, opening the Trap Door, and bombing Al. Puzzle 44: Fry Time What To Do: Put a Timer in front of Al, plugged in. Put the Air Mattress just to the left of the Timer, next to the Incline. Put a Chow-Man Motor underneath the Trap Door and connect it via Belt to the lower Conveyer Belt. Put an Incline (it doesn't matter which kind) sloping upward to the right and of two-width next to the upper Conveyer Belt, leading to the Trap Door. Finally, put an incline of four-width (sloping downward to the left) between the outlet and the stone floor. What Happens: Cliff Ant gets hit by the Egg and moves the ball. It hits the Trap Door and opens it, causing the Bubble Gum to fall onto the Chow-Man Motor. Chow-Man eats the Bubble Gum and sends the egg to the right. It then falls onto the Air Mattress, bounces up and flips the switch, causing the Timer to push Al right into Bik Dragon. Puzzle 45: Sid and Al Chow Down What To Do: Put Hildegard above Eunice. This is the tricky part of the puzzle: You will have to adjust Hildegard a bit to ensure she's in the right place. Put the teapot on the platform in front of Bik. Put two gears just to the right of the gear connected to the Conveyer Belt and connect the right-most one to Cliff Ant. Place a Catapult just to the right of Al (the bottom of the Catapult should be about level with the floor Al is on. What Happens: The blue ball will bounce around a bit and finally hit Hildegard, then drop down. Hildegard's egg will hit Eunice who will blow the blue ball onto Bik. Bik starts the teapot off, which blows the Beachball onto Cliff Ant. Cliff Ant moves the Fish to the left, which hits the Catapult and then reaches Al. The Catapult will throw a rock, causing the Cheese to reach Sid. Puzzle 46: Spy vs. Spy What To Do: Attach the right side of the Teeter-Totter to the Pistol on the screen via Rope. Put a Pistol in front of Al. Put a Pulley beneath the left side of the Teeter-Totter and connect that side of the Teeter-Totter to the Pistol via Rope, but make sure it goes through the Pulley. Put a Soccer Ball just above the Teeter-Totter. What Happens: The Soccer Ball flips the Teeter Totter, causing both Pistols to fire, which hit Sid and Al. Puzzle 47: Sid's Breakfast Bananza What To Do: Place a Rug in the gap of the floor Sid is on and put a Banana to the left of the left-most Ladder. Place a Fish on the floor underneath Hildegard (but make sure it's a little to the right of Hildegard). Put a Banana on the top of the wall to the right of the right-most Ladder. Since the puzzle requires you to put the Air Mattress in just the right spot, here's where it goes: First put it in the gap on the top floor, then move it down seven spaces and move it three spaces to the right. What Happens: Al goes after the Fish and eats it, putting him beneath Hildegard. Meanwhile Sid goes after the Banana and climbs the Ladder. He spots the Cheese and goes after it, falling onto the Air Mattress. While bouncing higher, he sees the Banana and goes after it, climbing the Ladder and getting one Cheese. He gets the second, walking over Hildegard, who lays an egg on Al. Puzzle 48: The Early Al Gets Sid If you ask me, this puzzle belongs in the "Really, REALLY Hard" difficulty level. Also, strangely enough, the Hint Book's solution is wrong: They forgot to put the Fish in. But anyway... What To Do: Put one end of the Tunnel just to the left of the bottom of the left-most Ladder and put the other end just above (but a little to the left of) the right-most Ladder. Place a Banana between the two upper tunnels, then put Cheese to the left of the left-most Tunnel. Place a Banana to the right of the right-most Tunnel and lastly put a Fish above Sid. What Happens: Sid and Al go up the Ladders and enter their respective Tunnels. Sid emerges from his Tunnel and eats the Banana. Al emerges from his tunnel and climbs the ladder and enters the Tunnel above it. He exits the other end, spies Sid, and snatches him. Level 49: Storming the Fort What To Do: This level takes some careful positioning. Put a Bombshell a little above the left-most part of the fort and put another Bombshell above it (but far enough above so it isn't knocked aside by the blast). Now for the tricky part. Take an incline (sloping down to the right) of length three just above Al, then move it eleven lengths up. Put a Bombshell on it. Lastly, put an Air Mattress just to the right of Al (just above the floor) then move it two spaces right and three spaces up. What Happens: The first two Bombshells will take out part of the left wall. The third Bombshell will take out the rest. Sid taunts Al, Al rushes towards Sid, and Sid's history...until the next puzzle, anyway. Puzzle 50: The Cheese Stands Alone What To Do: Place an Incline above Sid, three spaces down from the very top "roof". Put one end of the Tunnel just to the right of the left-most Cheese, and the other end just to the right of the first end. Put a Ladder just to the right of the Cheese and have it go up to the next "floor". Place a Banana to the right of the bottom part of the Ladder. What Happens: Sid falls onto the Pin and jumps up. The incline makes him move over to the Cheese. He eats it and goes after the next Cheese, entering the Tunnel. He emerges out the other end and goes after the Cheese and eats it. He goes after the Banana and climbs the Ladder, and eats the last bit of Cheese. iii. Really, REALLY Hard Puzzle 51: Mouse Trap What To Do: Put a Pin just to the left of Al, facing his way. Put a Peanut just to the left of the Pin and put Eunice behind it. See that platform underneath where Al is, just to the right? Put the outlet just above it, on the left side of it. Put a ball just above the switch. Plug a Timer into the outlet. The Timer should be facing left and be to the left of the Outlet. Put a ball just to the left of the Timer, on the platform. Set the Timer to 5. Place Hildegard above the incline on the far left. Put a Chow-Man Motor underneath the incline, facing right. Connect it to the Conveyer Belt via Belt. Lastly, place the Banana on the left platform above the Conveyer Belt. What Happens: Eunice sees the Peanut and sucks it in. Al gets sucked onto the Pin and leaps forward. He goes after the Fish and climbs down the ladder. He falls onto the "floor" and sees the Banana and goes after it and falls onto the Conveyer Belt. At about this time, the Timer will push the ball onto Hildegard, who will lay an egg that lands on the Chow-Man Motor. Chow-Man eats the egg and moves the Conveyer Belt, along with Al, to the right. Sid taunts Al (a fatal mistake), so Al grabs Sid and eats him. Now if only Tom would be so lucky... Puzzle 52: Porkin' Peanuts What To Do: First attach a Rope to the Anvil, put it through the Pulley, and lastly attach it to the Eye-Hook. Put an Air Mattress just to the right of the Conveyer Belt. Put a right-facing Chow-Man Motor to the left of the platform with the Cheese. Put a left-facing Thumpulator to the right of the Up/Down Counter. Lastly, attach a Belt from the Chow-Man Motor to the Conveyer Belt. What Happens: The Anvil lands on Eunice, who flips it. The Anvil lands on the scissors and slides to the right and lands on the Thumpulator. The Thumpulator hits the Up/Down Counter, feeding the Cheese to Chow-Man, who sends the Cheese to the right. The Cheese bounces on the Air Mattress until Eunice spots it and inhales it in. Puzzle 53: Tight Rope Rodent Can, can you do the Can-Can, can you do the Can-Can, can you do the...uh, what was I saying? What To Do: The hardest part of this level is the first bit. What you have to do is use Rope to connect the two right-most Balloons. After that everything falls into place, but here we go anyway. Put an Air Mattress in the "gap" between the Pins. What Happens: Sid walks across the Balloons (stringing together the two balloons slows them down enough) and lands on the Air Mattress. He bounces up, grabs the Cheese, then falls back down. He bounces all the way to the other Air Mattress, lands on the top of the Ladder, then climbs down the Ladder and eats the Banana. Puzzle 54: Pool Table Teaser Did they even give you something in Cake Walk about the Marbles? Oh well... What To Do: Place a Bombshell below the Pool Balls and put a Bomb on each end of the bottom floor, but close enough to the Bombshell that they'll explode. What Happens: The bottom Bombshell, along with the Bombs, blows up the floor. The upper Bombshell hits the Marbles and knocks them all off the screen. Puzzle 55: Prison Break What the heck is this level doing in Really, REALLY Hard anyway? It SO should be in All Brawn, No Brains, and in one of the earlier levels of that, it's so easy. But I digress. What To Do: Put one end of the Tunnel in front of Sid and put the other one to the left of the left-most Tunnel. Put a Banana to the left of the Tunnel in front of Sid and another Banana to the right of the second-to-right-most Tunnel. What Happens: Sid sees the Banana and goes after it, into the Tunnel. He emerges from it and sees the other Banana and goes after it, entering another Tunnel, and exiting the Tunnel next to the Cheese. Puzzle 56: Kitty Vac What To Do: Put a "\" Teeter-Totter just to the left of the Ball of Yarn. Attach Rope to the upper end of it, then put the Rope through the Pulley above it, then the Pulley below it, and then to the Trap Door next to the last Pulley. Put an anvil just above the right-most outlet. Put Rope onto the Anvil and attach it to the Pulley above it, and then to the Trap Door in the middle of the screen. What Happens: Eunice bats the Striped Superball, causing the Ball Bearing to fall over to the right. It then rolls right and hits the Teeter-Totter, sending Al downward. This also moves the Ball of String to the right, and it turns on the middle Vacuum Cleaner. Next the Ball Bearing turns on the Hair Dryer. Al becomes fluffy and starts floating. He gets sucked into the Vacuum while the Ball of String hits Bik. At about this time the Striped Superball will turn on the highest Vacuum Cleaner, performing the double task of sucking up Al and opening the Trap Door. This causes the Anvil to fall, turning on the last Vacuum Cleaner, and sucking up the third and final Al. Level 57: Mouse Droppings What To Do: Place an outlet underneath the Anvil and plug a Hair Dryer into it. Put a left-facing Thumpulator just to the right of the Fish, then move it one space right. Put a Chow-Man Motor a little above Sid and connect it to the Conveyer Belt with a Belt. Lastly, put a Pin (facing upward) above the Hair Dryer. What Happens: The Anvil turns on the Hair Dryer, which blows the Balloon to the right. The Balloon goes back to the left after moving upward and ends up cutting its own rope. It hits the bottom of the Thumpulator, pushing the Fish off and attracting Al. Al lands on the Pin and jumps upward, hitting Cliff Ant and moving the ball onto Hildegard. Hildegard lays an egg and Chow-Man eats it, moving Sid off the screen. Puzzle 58: Spelunking This puzzle takes some trial and error. In other words, you have to see where all the Tunnels lead. It isn't too hard to do by yourself (though time-consuming), but to make this guide complete I'll explain how to do it. What To Do: Put a Bubble Gum to the left of the cave left of Al. Put a Bubble Gum to the right of the right-most TOP cave, and then a Bubble Gum to the right of the cave just below it. See the three caves next to each other in the "middle"? Put a Bubble Gum to the left of the left-most cave of those three. Lastly, place a Balloon underneath the right-most Trap Door. What Happens: Al goes after the Bubble Gum and enters the Tunnel when the Balloon opens the Trap Door. Al goes after the Bubble Gum and falls into the opened Trap Door. He goes after the Bubble Gum again and enters the Tunnel. He emerges, sees the Bubble Gum, and enters the Tunnel. He emerges in the Tunnel next to Sid. Sid taunts him and Al will try to pounce on Sid. Al will stop short just of Sid a few times by hitting his head on the wall. Sid will get a kick out of this, but Al gets the last laugh by finally grabbing and eating Sid. Puzzle 59: Combustible Kitty What To Do: Put a Pin below Sid, facing up. Put a Pin far above Bik, facing down. You may have to tweak the position of the Pin some. Take the Incline, make it as small as it can be, and put it just to the right of the wood wall, slowing down to the right. It should be one space above the lower "branch". What Happens: Sid lands on the Pin and jumps upward. He opens the Trap Door and falls onto the Incline. He spots the Bubble Gum and eats it. Meanwhile, Al has fallen down and is going after the Bubble Gum himself. Now Sid floats up, hits the Pin, and falls downward, landing on Bik, who roasts Al. Puzzle 60: Bombs Away! Ugh. This is not a fun level, at least for me. Well, better get cracking. What To Do: Put a Trap Door beneath the Bubble Gum. Now for the tricky positioning part. Put an air Mattress just beneath the Soccer Ball. The Soccer Ball should be in the "middle" of the Air Mattress. Now move the Air Mattress eight spaces down. Place Eunice, facing right, on top of the "pedestal" that's just to the left of the Chow-Man Motor. Place a Conveyer Belt of width three just above the Balloon. Put two Gears next to each other nearby. Connect one Gear to the Conveyer Belt and the other to the Chow-Man Motor. Place an outlet with its switch DOWN to the right of the Bombshell. Its should be just above the "floor" the Bombshell is on and just to the left of the wall. Plug a right-facing Timer into it. What Happens: The Soccer Ball bounces off of the Air Mattress and hits the Incline. Eunice bats it behind her and it lands on the Teeter-Totter, sending the Cheese to Chow-Man. He then makes the Conveyer Belt move, sending the Balloon to the left. It flips the switch and the Timer pushes the Bombshell to the right. It destroys the wall separating Sid and Al. Sid taunts Al (a fatal mistake) and Al has a nice mouse snack. Puzzle 61: A Day at the Circus What To Do: Put an Air Mattress under Sid. Now, do you see the top "shelf" to the left of Sid? Put a Banana on it. Now put a Pencil on the floor to the right of Al. It should be just a little to the left of where the Air Mattress is. What Happens: Sid bounces off the Air Mattress. He sees the Cheese and goes after it, then falls onto the Pencil. He uses it to defeat Al, then eats the Cheese, but not without giving Eunice a fright! Puzzle 62: Minus One Mouse What To Do: Put Bik to the left of the Balloon, facing right. There will be a wall between Bik and the Balloon. Put a Pistol underneath the Pin and connect it to the lower end of the Teeter-Totter. Put a Bombshell one "floor" up from the Bubble Gum (it'll be underneath the Teeter-Totter). What Happens: The Bombshell blows up the "ceiling". Al gets the Bubble Gum and floats up, hitting the Teeter-Totter and firing the Pistol. The Pistol hits Bik, who breaths fire on the Balloon, popping it, and releasing the Anvil...right onto Sid. Puzzle 63: Mouse Hunt What To Do: Put a Conveyer belt underneath the Peanut and hook up a left-facing Chow-Man Motor to the right of it. Put a Cheese just above the Chow-Man Motor. Put an Air Mattress at the bottom of the "pit" that's to the left of the Peanut. Put Eunice on the top right platform. Lastly, put a Soccer Ball on top of the pedestal in the middle. What Happens: While Sid is eating the Cheese, Chow-Man eats HIS Cheese and moves the Peanut onto the Air Mattress. It bounces until Eunice notices it, who sucks it in, along with the Soccer Ball. The Soccer Ball lands on the Catapult, which throws a Rock that hits Sid on the head. Puzzle 64: Special Delivery What To Do: Put a "\" Teeter-Totter just underneath the Cheese. Then place a "/" Tetter-Totter underneath the ball. Connect the upper part of the upper Teeter-Totter to the upper part of the lower Teeter-Totter using Rope. Use a Conveyer Belt to "fill" the gap just to the right of the ball, then connect it to the Chow-Man Motor. Put a left-facing Teapot underneath the Marble and put a left-facing Bik to the right of the Teapot. Put a Conveyer Belt underneath Sid and connect it to Cliff Ant. Place an Up/Down Counter to the left of Cliff Ant, and lastly put Hildegard above the "gap" that's just to the right of the Up/Down Counter. What Happens: The ball lands on the Teeter-Totter, sending the Cheese to Chow-Man. Chow-Man starts running, moving the ball to the right. It falls down and reaches Bik, who breathes fire on the Teapot. The Teapot blows the Marble up and it hits Hildegard, who lays an egg. The egg hits the Up/Down Counter, which in turn hits Cliff Ant. Cliff Ant sends Sid straight to his impending doom (a.k.a. Al) Puzzle 65: The a-MAZE-ing Sid Oh boy. This one is a doozy to explain. Come to think of it, though, what's a doozy? What To Do: Place an Air Mattress in the "gap" in front of Sid and place a Bubble Gum to the right of it. Put a Bubble Gum to the right of the Ladder above Sid. Put a Bubble Gum to the platform right of the top of that Ladder. Put a Bubble Gum in the "room" to the right of the middle Ladder. Put Bubble Gum to the right of the left-most Ladder. Take a Wooden floor and put it to the right of that Ladder, two spaces down from the "ceiling". Stretch it out until it reaches the wall to the right. Place an Incline of width two (sloping down to the left) to the left of the Pulley and put a Bubble Gum above the Pulley. Place a BANANA (although in all other cases a Bubble Gum and Banana are interchangeable, it isn't in this case) underneath the Pulley. Put a Bubble Gum on the platform to the right of the first Bubble Gum. Put a Ladder in the "shaft" on the far right and stretch it out so it fills the whole way and put a Banana to the right of the bottom of it. Put a Banana on the platform to the right of the top of the Ladder. Put an Air Mattress in the "gap" underneath and to the left of the Banana. Place a Banana in the "room" to the left of the Air Mattress, but make sure it's as far left as it can be. Put a Banana on the platform to the right of the Cheese. Place a Banana underneath the Cheese and put a Ladder just to the right of the Cheese. What Happens: It takes too long to keep saying "Sid notices the Bubble Gum" and such, so I'll just say what he does in terms of moving. He moves right and bounces on the Air Mattress, then goes right and climbs the Ladder, then goes to the right. He drops down and continues right, climbing the ladder. He moves left, climbs the ladder, and goes right. He'll fall onto the Incline and slide down. He'll walk to the right and eat the Banana, but while doing so will slide to the left. He drops down, moves left, drops down, moves right, climbs the Ladder and then moves right. He falls down and continues right, bouncing off the Air Mattress, then continues right, then falls. He continues right, climbs the Ladder, and FINALLY eats the Cheese. Puzzle 66: Hungry Al! What To Do: Put a Skeleto-Bobbin to the right of the Chow-Man Motor and connect them with a Belt. Connect it to a Trans-Roto-Matic (the Trans-Roto-Matic should have the "spring" facing right) with Rope. Put two Gears near the Trans-Roto-Matic and connect the Trans-Roto-Matic to one, then connect the other to the Conveyer Belt Sid is on. Lastly, put a Fish underneath (but a little to the left of) the right-most Scissors. What Happens: Chow-Man eats the Cheese and moves Sid to the right. Meanwhile Al will be making his way towards the Fish. Sid will pull all the Scissors, but Al should be past the Anvils by then. Al eats the Fish and then has Sid for dessert. Puzzle 67: Minimalist What To Do: Place an Air Mattress just underneath Sid, and one just underneath Al, then move the Air Mattresses three spaces down. What Happens: Sid and Al will bounce for a little while until Al finally pounces Sid and eats him. Puzzle 68: The Gamey Show! What To Do: There are several ways to do this puzzle, but here's the "official" solution: Put an incline of width one just underneath the right-most ball, then move it three spaces down. Put an Air Mattress next to it (it being level with the bottom of the Incline) and then move it one space down and one space to the left. Put a "\" Teeter-Totter to the left of Hildegard. Put it as far to the right and as far down as you can, then move it one space left and one space up. Put an Air Mattress underneath the middle ball. The ball should be above the left edge of the Air Mattress. What Happens: The balls hit the bottom of the Message Machine and open all of them. Puzzle 69: Missile Mouse What To Do: Plug a Hair Dryer into the outlet. The Hair Dryer should be facing right and be to the left of the Balloon. Also plug a Timer into the outlet. The Timer is underneath the Outlet and facing the Anvil. Connect the Anvil (via Rope) to the upper part of the Teeter-Totter. What Happens: The Rock flips the switch. The Balloon is blown to the right and opens the Trap Door. Meanwhile, the Anvil flips the Teeter-Totter and the ball goes under the Electro-Ramp, flipping it. The Bombshell falls onto the flipped Electro-Ramp and right onto Sid. Puzzle 70: Hairball Hall of Fame What To Do: First, fill in the "gap" in the Incline to the right of Al using three inclines of width two. Put an Air Mattress in the bottom gap. Put a Ladder on the bottom-left platform and pull it up so it reaches the platform above Al. What Happens: Al slides down and onto the Air Mattress. It bounces him and he climbs up the Ladder. At about this time the Dust Bunny will have reached him. Al the spits a Hairball out at Sid, and Sid's finished. Puzzle 71: Mystery Message Part 1 Since I'll sometimes be referring to the "first" and "second" Message Machine, I'm showing what I consider to be first, second and third in each. 1 2 3 What To Do: Put the Dust Bunny behind Al. Put an Anvil to the right of the Eye Hook and connect them with Rope. Put a "/" Teeter-Totter above the first and third Message Machines, with the lower part of them just above it, then hook the bottom part of the Teeter-Totters to their respective Message Machines. It's important the left Teeter-Totter be correctly placed, so put it as far down as it can be without touching the Message Machine, and then move it one space up. Lastly, put the ball one space above the right Teeter-Totter. What Happens: Al spits out a Hairball. It flips the left Teeter, Totter, opening the first. The ball lands on the Teeter-Totter, opening the third. The Anvil hits the Balloon, moving it right and opening the second. Puzzle 72: Mystery Message Part 2 1 2 3 4 5 What To Do: See those four "shelves" underneath the Baseballs? Put a Bomb on each of them. Put a Striped Superball underneath the left-most Message Machine. Put a right-facing Thumpulator to the left of the Balloon. Put Eunice underneath the Ball Bearing. Finally, place four right-facing Biks to the left of each Bomb. What Happens: The Striped Superball opens the first Message Machine. In their various ways, all of the four Biks are hit, blowing up all the Bombs and making all of the Baseballs open the rest of the Message Machines. If it didn't work, try adjusting where the Bombs are a little. Puzzle 73: Mystery Message Part 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 What To Do: See those three pits underneath the top three Message Machines? Put a left-facing Catapult in each. Put a "/" Teeter-Totter underneath the Rock and connect the lower part to the right-most bottom Message Machine. Put a Pulley above the other side and put a Rope from that side through the Pulley to the middle bottom Message Machine. Put a "\" Teeter-Totter above and to the left of the left-most Message Machine. Connect the lower part of that Teeter-Totter to the left-most Message Machine. What Happens: The Rock hits the Catapult, which fires a Rock. It hits the Message Machine and then hits the other Catapult, causing the process to repeat twice. The first Rock has meanwhile landed on the Teeter-Totter and opened two Message Machines. The rock fired by the third Catapult lands on the left Teeter-Totter, opening the final Message Machine. Puzzle 74: Mystery Message Part 4 1 2 3 4 5 6 What To Do: Put a Scissors in front of Sid and a Scissors beneath the right Balloon. Put a Balloon underneath the Trap Door. Put a "/" Teeter-Totter beneath Al and connect the lower part to the fourth middle Message Machine with Rope. Place another "/" Teeter-Totter above the fifth Message Machine and connect its lower part to the fifth Message Machine. Finally, put a Pin (facing up) to the right of the sixth Message Machine. What Happens: Sid pulls the Scissors, then falls and pulls the other, opening the first and third Message Machine. The Balloon underneath him opens the second Message Machine. Meanwhile, Al lands on the Teeter-Totter and opens the fourth Message Machine, then slides onto the next Teeter-Totter, opening the fifth Message Machine. He lastly lands on the Pin and jumps upward, hitting the third Teeter-Totter and opening the last Message Machine. Puzzle 75: Mystery Message Part 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Put a Balloon just underneath the second Message Machine and connect it to the sixth. Put a "\" Teeter-Totter above the seventh Message Machine and attach its lower end (via Rope, of course) to the seventh Message Machine and attach its upper end to the upper end of the Teeter-Totter underneath the sixth Message Machine. Plug a left-facing Vacuum into the outlet (the suction part should be above the anvil). Place a Trans-Roto-Matic to the left of the Balloon, the "spring" side of it facing the Balloon, and connect it to the Skeleto-Bobbin with a Belt. Put a Balloon above the right Teeter-Totter and connect it to the right Trans-Roto-Matic. Connect the upper part of the right Teeter-Totter through the Pulley to the third Message Machine. What Happens: A lot of stuff is happening at once, and I'll take it one at a time. The left Balloon moves up and opens the second Message Machine while also opening the sixth. The over-worked Balloon simultaneously hits the spring on the Trans-Roto-Matic, which turns the Skeleto-Bobbin and opens the first Message Machine. The ball flips the switch and turns on the Vacuum, which sucks the Anvil toward it, opening the fifth Message Machine. The ball also flips the Teeter-Totter, which in turn flips the one it's connected to, opening the seventh Message Machine. The right Balloon hits and opens the fourth Message Machine, then moves to the left and pulls the Trans-Roto-Matic, moving the Anvil to the left. The Anvil lands on the Teeter-Totter, flipping the ball and opening the eighth Message Machine and also opens the ninth Message Machine. Phew! iv. LOONEY BIN! Puzzle 76: Kitty Bites the Bullet Wait...if the PREVIOUS difficulty level was "Really, REALLY Hard", and this is even harder, that means this must be really, really, REALLY Hard. And yes, that's just what this section is. They definitely go rough on you in the first few puzzles. And let's get started. What To Do: Put a Trap Door underneath the top anvil and ball and put a Bubble Gum next to Sid. Use Rope to attach the Anvil to the upper Pistol, going through the Pulley, of course. Put the Piano to the left of the Thumpulator and attach it to the bottom Pistol. Now take an Incline and stretch it out as far as it can go, and have it sloping down to the right. Put it one space above and one space to the right of the Incline next to the Anvil. Connect the bottom Pistol to the bottom Anvil via the Pulley. Put a Rock to the left of the Teeter-Totter and connect the upper part of the Teeter-Totter to the middle Trap Door. Lastly, put a right-facing Thumpulator to the left of the bottom Anvil. What Happens: Sid eats the Bubble Gum and opens the Trap Door. The upper Pistol fires, but Al sees it and turns away. The Pistol hits him in the back and he goes forward, falling onto the Thumpulator. The Thumpulator pushes the Piano and fires the Pistol at Al, but Al is too engrossed in the Ball of Yarn to notice it. By this time the other Als will have fallen asleep, so they won't see the Pistols firing at them! Meanwhile, the ball has landed on the Teeter-Totter and opens the Trap Door, firing the second-highest Pistol. Because Al is asleep by this time, he doesn't avoid it and gets hit. Oh, the Teeter-Totter also sends the Rock to the left, hitting the Thumpulator and pushing the Anvil off and firing the bottom Pistol at Al. Now, the ball starts bouncing around and opens the other Trap Door, and the last Pistol hits Al. Puzzle 77: Brain Sprain This puzzle certainly lives up to its name: It is one of the hardest puzzles in the game. The solution, however, is actually quite straightforward. What To Do: Take an Electro-Ramp (it should be sloping downward to the left) and use it to plug the "hole" between the lower Candy Cane Incline and the platform where Al is standing. Put a right-facing Cliff And underneath the Conveyer Belt and connect it to the Conveyer Belt. Put an Air Mattress at the bottom of the "pit" that's to the right of the Ball of Yarn. Plug a right-facing Timer into the outlet (the Timer should be underneath and to the right of the outlet, in the "cave"). Be sure to set the Timer to 3. Put a right-facing Cliff Ant to the right of the Timer. Use a Conveyer Belt to "fill" the gap between the upper Candy Cane Inclines and connect it to Cliff Ant. Lastly, put Hildegard above the ledge that's above Al. What Happens: Al sets everything in motion. He spits out a hairball at Cliff Ant, who moves the Bombshell onto the Electro-Ramp. It falls to the left and the explosion makes the ball turn on the Timer. The Timer pushes the Ball of Yarn to the left. The Ball of Yarn starts bouncing. It will eventually turn on the Timer and fire the Gun. The Gun will hit Hildegard, who will lay an egg on Al, which will wake him up (as he'll be asleep by this time). The Ball of Yarn will get onto the Conveyer Belt and will stay there for a little while until the Timer hits Cliff Ant and he moves the Ball of Yarn to the right. Al spies the Ball of Yarn and goes to the left. The Ball of Yarn will meanwhile move to the right and flip the Teeter-Totter and send the ball underneath the Electro-Ramp. The Electro-Ramp will flip. Al will be on the Electro-Ramp by this time and will roll right into where Sid is. You know what happens next. Puzzle 78: Pencil Power What To Do: Put an Air Mattress in the pit to the left of Sid and then place a "/" Teeter-Totter just to the right of the Cracked Bone Incline. Attach Rope to the bottom part of it and put the Rope through the Pulley, and then connect the Rope from the Pulley to the Trap Door. Put an outlet above the bottom Tile Roof Incline and plug a right-facing Hair Dryer to it. Put the other outlet in the "cave" in the lower-right. Put the ball above the switch and plug a left-facing Timer into it and set the Timer to 5. Lastly, put a left-facing Scissors to the left of the upper Tunnel. What Happens: Sid taunts Al and Al goes after him. Al falls down and Sid lands on the Air Mattress. Al lands on the Teeter-Totter and slides down to the right. The Teeter-Totter opens the Trap Door and the Pencil starts sliding down. Meanwhile, Sid bounces left and flips the switch, then slides down. The Hair Dryer pushes the Balloon, which opens the Trap Door. The Warhead destroys the wall separating Sid and the Tunnel. Sid sees the Scissors and decides he must pull it for whatever reason, and enters the Tunnel. He lands on the Pencil and grabs it. He notices Al and uses the Pencil to make a punching bag of Al before finishing him off. Puzzle 79: Adventure Part 1 What To Do: Put a Magnifying Glass between Sid and Al and put Cheese on the far right side of the floor they're on. Put a Scissors in front of the ball that's going to hit Bik. Put Bubble Gum on the right side of the platform on the bottom left. Put an Electro-Ramp (sloping downward to the right) beneath the Rug. Put Cheese on the platform on the middle-right of the screen. Put a ladder just to the right of the right Tunnel and bring it up far enough to reach the next "floor". Put a gear (or Bone floor) underneath the Trap Door. What Happens: Sid scares Al with the Magnifying Glass. Al runs right and the rug falls. Al slides to the right and lands on the Teeter-Totter. He flips it (opening the Trap Door) along with the Electro-Ramp. Sid meanwhile slides to the left because of the Electro-Ramp. He ends up getting to the Gum. He eats it and floats up. He pops when he reaches the Pin and enters the the tunnel. He exits the Tunnel and climbs the ladder, then moves right and falls down the chute. Puzzle 80: Adventure Part 2 What To Do: Place a "/" Teeter-Totter just above the pins. Put Cheese to the left of the bottom part of the Ladder, and place an Air Mattress in the "pit" to the left of the Ladder. Put Cheese just underneath the Pulley. What Happens: Sid falls and lands on the Teeter-Totter. He slides down and eats the Cheese. He climbs the Ladder but comes back down and eats the other Cheese. Then he climbs the ladder again, walks left, ad starts bouncing until he enters the Tunnel. He exits the other Tunnel and falls down the chute. Puzzle 81: Adventure Part 3 The last "Adventure" is fairly straightforward. Probably the hardest part is starting out. What To Do: Place a Balloon on the Conveyer Belt. Place Bubble Gum beneath the left Bik. Put a right-facing Pin underneath the left side of the Conveyer Belt. Put a "\" Teeter-Totter above the tied-down Balloon. Connect the Trap Door with the Rock on it with the lower end of the Teeter-Totter, making sure to go through the Pulleys. Place a Bomb beneath Al. Finally, put a right-facing Scissors to the right of the bottom Tunnel. What Happens: The Balloon slows down Sid JUST long enough to prevent him from getting fried by Bik Dragon. He eats the Bubble Gum and floats up, deflating when he hits the Pin. He enters the Tunnel and pulls the Scissors, releasing the Balloon. The Balloon hits the Teeter-Totter, opening the Trap Door and having the Rock fall on Bik, who blows up the Bomb beneath Al, and Al with it. The Balloon then opens the Trap Door with the Cheese on it. Sid, having returned from his Tunnel Trip, notices the Cheese, goes after it, and leaves through the chute. Puzzle 82: Looney Ballooney What To Do: Put a Bomb under the Anvil and put a Peanut underneath the red platform to the right of Eunice and put a Baseball on the platform. Put a Tunnel in the "pit" to the right of the incline that's to the right of Sid, and then put the other entrance to the left of the bottom Balloon. What Happens: The ball rolls down the inclines and hits Eunice, who blows the Balloon to the right. This opens the Trap Door and Sid slides down into the Tunnel. He exits the other end and Eunice sees him and turns around. She sucks in the Peanut. The Baseball ends up above her trunk, so she flips it. It hits Bik, who blows up the Bomb, which sends the Anvil flying. This pulls the trigger on the Pistol, which shoots (and destroys) the Balloon. Puzzle 83: Attack of the Pachyderms What To Do: Place a right-facing Eunice to the left of Al, and another right-facing Eunice on the platform above the Eunice you just placed. Put another right-facing Eunice to the left of the Anvil, and place a left-facing Eunice on the platform above Al. Lastly, put a Scissors to the right of Al. What Happens: Al sees the Scissors and goes after it, pulling it. The Balloon is released and opens the Trap Door. The Rock rolls right onto Eunice's trunk, who flips it to the other Eunices. It ends up hitting the highest Eunice, who blows the Anvil, which falls down, hitting Al. Puzzle 84: Piano Lessons What To Do: Take two left-facing Eunices and put them to the right of the first two Ball Bearings. Put two left-facing Biks to the left of the first two Ball Bearings, and put a left-facing Bik behind the first Eunice. Put a right-facing Eunice to the left of the left-most Ball Bearing. Put an Air Mattress underneath the lowest Vertebrae Incline. Put a right-facing Catapult on the "table" that's to the right of the Air Mattress. Put a right-facing Eunice to the left of the lowest Ball Bearing, and put Hildegard above the Scissors. What Happens: The three Biks make the three Eunices blow the Ball Bearings. The last one hits the Catapult, which hits the fourth Eunice. Eunice blows the Ball Bearing onto Hildegard, who lays an egg on the Scissors, sending the Piano right onto Al's head. Puzzle 85: Ladders Gone Looney Ugh. It's difficult to explain through text how to do this puzzle, but I'll try. What To Do: Put a Banana to the right of the bottom Tunnel, to the right of the "middle" highest Ladder and underneath (and a little to the left of) the "middle" highest Ladder. If you can't figure out which Ladder I'm referring to, do this: Start at the top of the Ladder to the right of Sid. Now look at the Ladder whose highest point is as high as the first Ladder. Now look at the second Ladder's lowest point. The highest "middle" Ladder is the one whose lowest point is the same as the second Ladder's lowest point. See those two logs that make a 90-degree angle on the far right? Put a Banana on top of the horizontal of the two logs. Lastly, put a Banana PEEL to the right of the upper part of the "middle" highest Ladder. What Happens: Sid walks right and climbs down the Ladder. He continues right and climbs up the next Ladder, then moves left and climbs the other. He goes right, climbs the Ladder, then continues right and climbs the next Ladder. He moves right, slips on the Banana Peel, and enters the Tunnel. He exits the other side of the Tunnel and eats the Cheese. Puzzle 86: Tunnel Teaser There are two separate and independent parts of this puzzle. I'll deal with them separately. Part 1 is bonking Al with the Rock, Part 2 is leading Sid to the cheese. Part 1: Place an Egg above the Chow-Man Motor and put a Skeleto-Bobbin to the right of it and connect the two with a Belt. Use Rope to connect the Skeleto-Bobbin with the Trap Door. Part 2: You can figure this out with trial and error, but here's the answer anyway: Put a Banana to the right of the Tunnel to the right of Sid (duh). Now place a Banana to the right of the Tunnel to the right of the first Tunnel. See the two tunnels suspended on air? Put a Banana underneath the left one. Put a Banana to the left of the Tunnel two floors "up" from Sid. See the Tunnel to the very upper-left? Put a Banana to the right of the Tunnel to the right of it. Finally, put a Banana to the right of the right-most Tunnel one floor "up" from Sid. The positioning of this Banana is tricky because you need to make sure it doesn't slide too far to the left. What Happens: Part 1: Chow-Man eats the Egg and turns the Skeleto-Bobbin, which opens the Trap Door and sends the Rock onto Al's head. Part 2: Sid goes to the right and enters the Tunnel. He exits the upper-left Tunnel and moves to the right to the Tunnel next to it. He exits the tunnel underneath and a little to the left of it, moves right, falls, then moves left and enters another Tunnel. He exits one of the upper Tunnels, moves right, and enters the next. Sid then exits the middle of the two Tunnels next to each other. He eats the Banana and then enters the Tunnel to the right of the Tunnel he just exited. He emerges in the Tunnel next to the Cheese and eats it. Puzzle 87: Kitty Takes a Plunge What To Do: See that little pit to the left of the Banana that looks like a Chow-Man Motor would perfectly in? What do you know, put a right-facing Chow-Man Motor in it. Connect it via Belt to the Conveyer Belt. Connect the Anvil to the Skeleto-Bobbin with Rope. Put a left-facing Chow-Man Motor underneath the Egg and connect it to the Skeleto-Bobbin with a Belt. Put a Teapot underneath Al and a Bik to the right of the Teapot. Plug a left-facing Timer into the outlet. Make sure the Timer is to the right of the outlet. What Happens: Chow-Man eats the Egg and moves the Skeleto-Bobbin. The Skeleto-Bobbin pulls the Anvil to the right, and it turns on the Vacuum and then hits the Rock onto the Air Mattress. The rock bounces until it flips the switch and the Timer pushes it left. The Banana goes into the Chow-Man Motor, who starts moving the Conveyer Belt. The Rock is sucked towards the Vacuum Cleaner, and the Conveyer Belt moves it left. It gets to where Eunice is, who flips it onto Bik, who breathes fire on the Teapot, blowing Al offscreen. Puzzle 88: Mouse Hunt Considering that Al hasn't fared very well in the past 10 puzzles while Sid has been fine, I guess it's about time for Al to get some revenge. What To Do: Put a Conveyer Belt underneath the Bombshell. The Conveyer Belt should be as small as it can be. Put a right-facing Cliff Ant above the Bombshell and connect the two with a Belt. Put a left-facing Cliff Ant to the right of Al and put a Skeleto-Bobbin above it. Connect the Cliff Ant to the Skeleto-Bobbin with a Belt and connect the Trap Door to the Skeleto-Bobbin with a Rope. Put a Dust Bunny behind Al. Put a Scissors beneath the Balloon and put a left-facing Pin in the upper-right corner. What Happens: Al spits a hairball at Cliff Ant. Cliff Ant releases the Trap Door and Al gets the Bubble Gum. He flies up and gets popped by the Pin, then falls down and slides to the left. He climbs the Ladders and tries to get the first Sid. He fails and Sid runs to the right and down the Ladder, but Al DOES open the Trap Door and sending the Bombshell down, taking care of one Sid. Meanwhile, the Sid that ran from Al has climbed down two Ladders and pulled the Scissors. That seals both his doom and the doom of the Sid below him. Puzzle 89: Castle Mousenstein What To Do: Put an Anvil just underneath the Trap Door and attach the two with a Rope. Put a Conveyer Belt to the left of the bottom Ladder, level with the other Conveyer Belt. Put a right-facing Cliff Ant above the right Fish and left of the Ball Bearing. Put two adjacent Gears underneath the right Conveyer Belt. Connect one to Cliff Ant and the other to the right Conveyer Belt. Put a Fish to the right of the bottom of the lowest Ladder. Put an outlet underneath the upper Fish and plug a right-facing Timer into it. The Timer needs to be to the right of the outlet. Set the Timer to 3. Put a Ladder above the left Conveyer Belt, to the left of the bottom Ladder. Make it as small as possible, then stretch it four spaces up. Put a floor to the right of that Ladder and stretch it to the right. It should be just below the top Ladder. Finally, put an Electro-Ramp below and to the right of the Rock. It should be one space away from the right wall and three spaces up from the Conveyer Belt. What Happens: The Anvil pulls on the Trap Door and the Bombshell sets Al free. Al sees the Fish and moves right. He climbs the Ladder and notices the other Fish. Here he does this weird thing where he moves right and then left and then right again over and over and over. This weird "dance" of his has flipped the Electro-Ramp. Meanwhile, the Fish has flipped the Timer and has slid down to the left. The Timer pushes the Rock and it slides to the right. It bumps the Ball Bearing, starting Cliff Ant. Cliff Ant works the Conveyer Belt to push Al to the Ladder. He climbs it and goes after the Fish. He climbs the ladder, rushes after Sid, enters the Tunnel, and escapes. Puzzle 90: Kitty Knits a Sweater What To Do: Place a right-facing Cliff Ant in the little chamber below and to the left of the Ball of Yarn. Take a Conveyer Belt and use it to fill the "gap" between the two Thatched Straw Inclines and connect it to Cliff Ant using a Belt. Put a left-facing Teapot to the right of Cliff Ant (underneath and to the right of the Ball of Yarn). Put a left-facing Bik behind the Teapot and put the ball above Bik. Put the Air Mattress just to the right of and level with the bottom of the Thatched Straw Incline to the right of the Conveyer Belt, then move it one space to the right. Place a "\" Teeter-Totter above the Pulley and attach its upper end to the Trap Door with Rope. Put Hildegard above Al. Plug the Hair Dryer into the outlet. The Hair Dryer should be facing left and be under the outlet. What Happens: The ball hits Bik, who breathes fire on the Teapot. The Teapot both moves the Ball of Yarn to the left and starts Cliff Ant up. The Ball of Yarn drops down, moves right, then bounces off the Air Mattress. Eunice flips it onto the Teeter-Totter, and the Rock falls down, turning on the Hair Dryer and flipping the Teeter-Totter. The Ball of Yarn goes flying and the Hair Dryer pushes it over the "wall" to the right of Al. Al's sleeping by this time, so the Ball of Yarn hits Hildegard, who lays an egg to wake Al up. Al notices the Ball of Yarn and grabs it. Puzzle 91: Critter Jitters What To Do: Put a Hildegard above the right Al and put the ball above Hildegard. Place a left-facing Al underneath the Bubble Gum. What Happens: Sid goes after the Banana and then ends up next to Al. He eats the Cheese. Al would normally grab Sid here, but he's so busy being mad about the Egg on his head he ignores him. Sid taunts Al, and THEN Al tries to pounce him. Sid runs off, Al following him. Sid eats the Cheese and taunts Al. Al chases after him, and Sid runs right and climbs the Ladder. He eats the Cheese there. He goes back down the Ladder and eats the Cheese there. He climbs up and bumps into Al. Al for whatever reason runs in the direction Sid ISN'T on, and Sid scampers down the Ladder. He climbs the next Ladder, eats the Bubble Gum, and floats up. He opens the Trap Door and pops. The last Cheese falls down to Sid, and he eats it. Puzzle 92: Sid's Three Ring Circus This puzzle has three separate and unrelated parts, so I'll separate them into three parts. Part 1: Place Cheese above the Scissors and put Cheese above the platform that's just above the bottom Tunnel. Put Cheese to the right of the bottom Tunnel. Part 2: See the Bubble Gum? Put the Dinky Blue Ball far above it. That is, above the lower Candy Cane Incline. Part 3: Connect the upper part of the Teeter-Totter to the Trap Door Al is on. Put Cheese on the second-highest Trap Door. What Happens: Part 1: The Cheese hits the Scissors and cuts the rope. The Balloon opens the Trap Door, releasing Sid. Sid follows the Cheese and enters the Tunnel. He exits the upper Tunnel and leaves the screen. Part 2: The Dinky Blue Ball starts bouncing around. It ends up opening the Trap Door and releasing the Bubble Gum. Sid eats the Bubble Gum and floats off the screen. Part 3: The Striped Super Ball opens the Trap Door and the Cheese falls onto the Teeter-Totter. This opens the Trap Door Al is on and he falls right onto Sid. The two sort of bounce off each other until Al is on the Rug and falls off. Sid sees the Cheese and goes after it, falling also. Puzzle 93: Fish Wish Weird. The Hint Book's solution is wrong AND the game's "official" solution is wrong also. Very strange. But anyway... What To Do: Put a Bombshell just above the Anvil (but make sure it's a bit to the left of the Anvil). Tie the Anvil to the Trap Door the Piano is on. What Happens: The Bombshell pushes the Anvil away and explodes, opening a lot of the Trap Doors. The Piano falls and the right Al's Trap Door opens. He falls down where to the Fish are and eats them. Meanwhile, the other Al's Trap Door opens because of the Bombshell, and he falls down onto the Fish. Puzzle 94: Balloonatics What To Do: Put a right-facing Bik in the "corner" to the lower left of Al. Put a downward-facing Pin above the left-most Balloon. Put a left-facing Scissors on that Balloon's string. Put a right-facing Cliff Ant between the Thumpulator and Anvil and attach him to the Conveyer Belt with a Belt. Attach the Anvil to the Balloon closest to it. Finally, put a right-facing Scissors on the Rope of the Balloon above the Thumpulator. The position of this Scissors is key: You might have to move it around a little to get it to work. What Happens: Al sees the Fish and waddles towards it. Meanwhile, Bik destroys the Balloon closest to Al. The Balloon attached to it moves up and Al moves over it. Al continues right, stepping over the other Balloon and falling through the Rug. He sees the Scissors and pulls it, releasing the Balloon. This Balloons pushes the one above it and they both go off the screen together. Al lands on the Thumpulator. Cliff Ant moves the Anvil off the Conveyer Belt, taking the Balloon with it. Al slides left and goes after the Scissors. He pulls them, popping the final Balloon. Puzzle 95: Hen House Ugh. This puzzle is annoying because you have to adjust everything JUST perfectly to make it work. What To Do: Put a Hildegard above each Sid and Al. Take an Incline and set it to width two, sloping down to the left. Use it to partially fill in the gap between the left inclines (attach it to the more left part). Put a horizontal Log Wall above the right-most part of that Incline. Do the same with the other side of the "House". What Happens: The Small Super Balls are stopped by the Log Walls and drop down onto the Hildegards. What's supposed to happen is they hit them all and all of the Sids and Als are hit. If that doesn't work, try adjusting where the Hildegards are a bit. Level 96: Al in the House of Pins How you can beat this puzzle is so pathetically cheap it's amazing. You can try for the "proper" method if you want, of course. What To Do: Put a Tunnel right in front of Al. Put the other end anywhere you want Put a Bubble Gum to the left of the Tunnel that's in front of Al. What Happens: Al sees the Bubble Gum and enters the Tunnel. Congratulations, you've beaten this level! Hey, I told you it was cheap! Puzzle 97: The house that Sid built What To Do: Start by placing a Bomb a fair bit away from Bik. Now put a Bomb in that same "room", but as far to the right as you can. Put a Bomb in each of the two "compartments" that are just to the right. Put a Bomb above the two "compartments". Place one Bomb in each "compartment" that's underneath the Thatched Straw Incline. Finally, place one Bomb on the right part of the Rug that Sid is on. Puzzle 98: Kitty Brunch What To Do: Place an incline of width one just to the left of the left Cheese. Put the ball just above the incline. Place an Air Mattress underneath the right Cheese, as far low as it can go, then move it up two spaces. Finally, put a Bombshell above the skeleton floor that's above the right Cheese. What Happens: The ball moves the Cheese over a little. Sid lands on the incline. He wants the Cheese, so he pushes the ball while he moves. He encounters the Ladder and climbs up it. Meanwhile, the Bombshell has destroyed the floor and the other Cheese is bouncing on the Air Mattress. It bounces high enough for Sid to notice it, and he goes after it. He climbs down the Ladder and gets the Banana. Puzzle 99: Mad House This level is so darn easy! Why the heck is it in the hardest difficulty? What To Do: Place a right-facing Thumpulator to the left of the right Bubble Gum and put an Anvil above the right Hildegard. Put the Piano below the left-most Trap Door and connect the two using Rope. What Happens: The Piano opens the Trap Door and the Bubble Gum slides down to Sid, who eats it and floats away. Meanwhile, the Anvil hits Hildegard, who lays an egg on the Thumpulator, which pushes the Bubble Gum over to Al. Al eats the Bubble Gum and floats away. Puzzle 100: Kitty Kaboom!!! Okay, this should not be the last level. The last level should be something mind-blowing, like Brain Sprain, only harder. In fact, I think Brain Sprain is a better final level than this. They should switch them around...make Kitty Kaboom!!! the second level of LOONEY BIN! and Brain Sprain the final level. Okay, I'm done ranting now. What To Do: Put a right-facing Chow-Man Motor behind Al and put a Dust Bunny above it. Connect the Chow-Man Motor to the Conveyer Belt. Put a Balloon above the right Eye Hook and attach it with Rope. Put a right-facing Scissors on the Rope. Put an Incline sloping downward to the right a bit underneath the outlet. Put a Baseball in front of the right Hair Dryer and a Soccer Ball in front of Eunice. What Happens: The Dust Bunny bounces around a little, but ends up on Chow-Man's plate. Don't ask me how he considers that food, though...anyway, Chow-Man starts running and Al is moved right. He eats the Bubble Gum and floats upward. His bubble pops when he reaches the Pin and he rolls to the right. He pulls the Scissors and the Balloon is released. It moves right, then encounters the Incline you put there, and moves left. It flips the switch, the Hair Dryer pushes the Baseball to the left, and it hits Eunice. Eunice blows the Soccer Ball to the right, moving the Bombshell to the left. It lands on Al, making him C.O.A.
