Return left and push the owl toy again. Go right and take the coin (2/3). Go left 4 times, then dig at the base of the middle tree to find the final coin (3/3) Treasure Tracker.

Go left and try to touch the red ball - you will start to play a game where you just need to get your 3 light coins in a straight line Strategy Wizard.

Fishing

Continue left twice and try to take the flower. Take the power cable from the water, then plug in the cable to the left to turn on the televisions. Now you need to click on pairs of televisions to find 8 pairs of matching symbols. You need to do this perfectly, as the puzzle will reset after 6 mismatches. Once you are done, you will see four symbols: skull, thumb down, shark, poop. Try to talk to the fish guy, then head left.

Plug in your cable on the left, then click on the screens in the same order they flash, getting the sequence correct 8 times Simon Master. You will see another four symbols: shark, right arrow, fish, burger. Continue left again.

Plug in the television here. Adjust the aerial until a feather is displayed on the screen. Pick up the television, then pick up the snorkel. Wave to the man on the left, who wants a guitar. Return right twice, then head underwater on the right. Grab the videotape, then attach the hook to the anchor. Press the button on the left, then you need to need to solve a series of 4 puzzles.

Talk to the fish guy, then steal the fish TV (1/2). Go left and put your videotape in the VCR, then grab the dropped phone. Send the first set of four symbols you saw (skull, thumb down, shark, poop), then pick up the crab's eye. Use the VCR and grab the phone again. Send the second set of four symbols you saw (shark, right arrow, fish, burger). While the shark guy is distracted, take the worm TV. Go left and use the crab's eye to look down the dark pipe - you will see another three symbols: jellyfish, short eel, hook. Back out and go right twice.

Head underwater once more, and remove the hook from the anchor. Put your worm TV on the hook. Go back up and talk to the fish guy, who will pull up the fish TV. Dive down and reattach the hook to the anchor. Go up and talk to the fish guy once more, then steal the fish TV (2/2).

The traffic light will now change Traffic Light Fixer, and you will automatically head left.

Change Machine

Pick up the pipe from the ground, then return to the right. Use the pipe on the traffic light. Have the bird jump on the traffic light, then also jump up to scare the small bird, which will be caught. Pick up the unicycle, then use both characters to pick up the elephant and drag it to the left. Have the bird play guitar for the giraffe, then steal the money from the armadillo and you will start a fight. Go around to the back of the change machine and you will send the small bird inside.

There are a series of 5 short platform games to solve, each within a short time frame. Once you are done, reach into the back of the machine and pull out the long pipe. Use the elephant, and have the bird guy put the trunk into the pipe. Now jump on the elephant with both characters.

The Interview

Return right and read the newspaper to see a whole lot of numbers. Look at the change machine, which requires a PIN code. Continue right and take the champagne bottle. Talk to the monkey driver, who wants some cash. Talk to the giraffe, who will force you to solve a series of 4 memory puzzles (just remember who appears behind each door of the limousine each time) - you will receive a cork when you are successful.

Go left twice and have the bird play guitar for the cactus, then pour champagne into his water while he is distracted. After he drinks the champagne, have the bird play guitar for him again, and dance with him until he falls down. Pick up the small cactus ball and also take the larger cactus branch. Open the door to the left to see the interview in progress, then throw your extra cactus ball into the juggling act. After this interview is over, talk to the boss and choose the strong man.

Return right and jump on the elephant while the bird puts the trunk into his mouth - you will automatically use the cork to stop the bird from deflating. Go left and you will pass this part of the interview. Now select the brain and you will face a puzzle where bosses and workers must cross a river in a boat:

  • Send 2 bosses left, then 1 boss right
  • Send 2 bosses left, then 1 boss right
  • Send 2 workers left, then 1 boss and 1 worker right
  • Send 2 workers left, then 1 boss right
  • Send 2 bosses left, then 1 boss right
  • Send 2 bosses left

Try for the comedy challenge, but you are missing some items. Grab a cactus ball (1/3) from beneath the sign on the right, then continue right. Take another cactus ball (2/3) from the animal skull on the ground. Pick up the final cactus ball (3/3) from the front of the limousine. Talk to the armadillo, who remembers the moon landing from his 3rd birthday. Return left and examine the newspaper again, then use the machine and enter PIN 1966. Select $50 Cash Catcher. Return right and give this to the monkey driver. Now you need to open the doors to find him acting different ways:

  1. Open the 4th door to get a balloon animal from a performer
  2. Open the 5th door to swap the balloon animal for a present
  3. Open the 2nd door to swap the present for a feather
  4. Open the 1st door to swap the feather for a newspaper
  5. Open the 4th door to swap the newspaper for a paper crane
  6. Open the 3rd door to swap the paper crane for a banana

Return left twice and go through the door. Complete the final part of the interview The Boss's Favorite. After going left, click on yourself and you will say goodbye to the bird. Go to the elevator, then grab the flower. Press the button on the elevator to get inside.

Chapter 4

Elevator

Pick up the watering can and use it on the vase to make a flower grow. Use the speed control to go up to 2, then immediately down to 0. While you are floating, open the window latch, and the red ball will fly in to give color to the flower. Grab the flower and give it to the large cactus, then solve the sudoku puzzle. Reading from the top left (across and then down) the blank spaces should be filled with these symbols:

  • tree
  • water
  • tree
  • moustache
  • water
  • star
  • water
  • tree
  • heart
  • clock
  • flower
  • burger
  • moustache
  • water

Go out through the door when it opens.

Bridges

Go left to find a large clock. Grab the coin (1/9) from the post just to the right of the clock. Read the information manual on top of the small cactus building to the left, then pull the lever on its left side. Go back to the right and pick up 2 more coins (3/9). Press the elevator button and you will get a rod (1/2) and another coin (4/9). Head left twice and talk to the workmen. Go left once more. Pick up the coin (5/9) and the crank handle. Look at the safe, then try to reach the basket to the left.

Return right twice and use the crank handle on the left side of the clock. Using the information manual and the fish symbol on the clock, use the handle to set the time anywhere from 5-6 o'clock. Pick up another coin (6/9) from inside the small cactus building, then go left. Ask the left workman for his coin (7/9). Grab the rope from the right. Talk to the right workman to see a photo on his phone - pay close attention to this photo. Return right and change the time on the clock to anything outside 5-6 o'clock. Go left again and grab yet another coin (8/9).

Go left and examine the safe. The combination relates to the photo you were shown, which contained:

  • 4 trees
  • 3 clouds
  • 6 flies
  • 3 wheels

Enter the code as 4363, then grab the final coin (9/9). Return 4 screens to the right and insert your coins in the large totem. Now you need to place them into the following star pattern:

2
9
6
3
1
8
4
7
10
5
  • Put the coin at 10 and move it to 6
  • Put the coin at 4 and move it to 10
  • Put the coin at 2 and move it to 4
  • Put the coin at 8 and move it to 2
  • Put the coin at 5 and move it to 8
  • Put the coin at 3 and move it to 5
  • Put the coin at 7 and move it to 1
  • Put the coin at 9 and move it to 7
  • Put the coin at 3 and move it to 9

For completing the puzzle you will get another rod (2/2). Go left 3 times and give the rods to the right workman - he will give you a hook. Go left and use this to reach the basket. Climb inside.

Scaffolding

Click on each of the five foods on the other beam so they swap what they are eating. The aim is to get them all to eat a smaller version of their own costume. Now examine the radio that falls down next to you. Jump in the basket to go right. On the next screen, grab the flower (1/6) and pay attention to the music that you pass by. Return left and examine the radio again to see which food matches each note. Now examine the fruits and get them to burp by clicking on them in this order:

  • fries
  • apple
  • apple
  • soda
  • melon
  • melon

After the song you will end up with 5 more flowers (6/6). Go left and give these to the cactus, then play his game. You must not be the one to take the last match. You won't win the first game, as you can only win if you go first. When you do, make sure you leave 13 matches, then 9 matches, then 5 matches, then 1 match for your opponent. Once you win, head left twice.

At the gates, click on each of the 3 flowers, then on the flower symbol. Go through the gates.

Clouds

Click on the clouds to reveal a hot air balloon. Click on the glowing ball and it will start a fire in the balloon. Get inside, then release the sandbags. Up in the air, click on your moustache, then you will end up landing. Get out of the basket and head left twice. Pick the 4 tallest flowers, then return to the right.
