Think of pushing a ball onto the switch, as opposed to dragging it across, which, as you've noted, is impossible with the crate on the lower blue switch.

I tried that and it didn't work, then it did (another thing you have to do twice!)<br /><br />But, aaaaaaaaaaaaaagh, now I'm going round in circles in a bad way. The green path is open and I've got the crate to the lower blue switch and one left. I think the next thing I need to do is move the ball from the isolated green switch to the red one above it, but I've failed to do that without connecting to it, unless I connect to one of the balls on the top green switches first; but if I do that I have to drag that ball to the bottom (again), where I can split from it, drag the ball off the bottom green switch, and put the crate back on the blue switch ... but then I can't get one of the balls onto the other blue switch because the blue blocks in the V pop up. If I didn't put the crate back on the blue switch, I could get the ball back into the upper part but then I'm still connected to it and the green door isn't going to close on me.<br /><br />Maybe I need to sleep on this, yet again.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16904503006541490228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568527495646751209.post-26508840561250002422020-06-10T16:40:23.833+02:002020-06-10T16:40:23.833+02:00Unknown,

You will do this by nudging the blue-switch ball back on the blue switch, connecting to your third ball, disconnecting on the red switch, and pushing it back diagonal to the green ball to connect to the blue-switch ball. The only ball that has to be left alone is the ball on the green switch.<br /><br />Hope this helps!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568527495646751209.post-23865518768570509002020-06-10T15:47:49.202+02:002020-06-10T15:47:49.202+02:00Reading Marie's comments (yes, the difference ...Reading Marie's comments (yes, the difference between hint and spoiler is very subjective), I thought I'd got it, but it turns out I haven't. Specifically, putting a ball on the top red switch (one of the ones from the top green switches, I assumed) means the green doors close, so after bringing the other ball down (3 balls altogether = one next to the blue switch, one on the bottom green switch and one more), I can't get the ball from the blue switch out of that cupboard without connecting to the one that has to be left alone. Meanwhile it looks as though several other people have worked it out.

The trickiest part, I found, was placing the three balls on the green switches in the upper level and moving the crate to the bottom level without reattaching the chain.

It seems like you're meant to remove the iron ball from it, but getting it back on is a pain in the neck. I'm honestly not sure how to deal with it just yet. I think there's something we have to be missing. Although, a bit of information I've come across as being apparently integral to the solution, is bringing something back up to the top without having all of the green switches pressed. Apparently by pushing an iron ball up the middle passage, and then using the red switch to off yourself, you can re-spawn on the freezing pad and attach to the iron ball there, and bring it topside. Not sure where this fits in, but I've been experimenting a bit to try to find it. Maybe you'll have more luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
