It’s a simple little game, keep dropping the items and watch what happens. The order determines what happens. It is possible to get to the maximum level on each item.
Strangely addicting. So, what’s you high score?
11,900 for me so far.
My main sticking point is that the pipes always seem to stay at Level 1. Hmmmm.
Woo! 13,900, and everything but the pipe at max level!
20,000 points and everything at max level!
Due to the very fun nature of this game, I’ll not put in a spoilered list of how I did it unless someone asks. 
Man, what an addictive little game!
Only 7200 so far. I’m working on it!
While you’re on that sire, check out “Elvis Lives in Flash”.
Try not to laugh.
Congrats! How many tries did it take you? I got hung up for a while before I figured out how to deal with the pipe, but soon after that it all came together.
Argh!!! Next time just come to my house with a metric assload of crack, why don’t you?
So far my best score was my first (only 7200 or so 
), back when I thought I had even less of an idea of what I was doing.
Reminds me of the (one and only) time I went to the driving range with a golfing friend to try my hand at taking a slice at a few balls. The first drive was a beauty, then I started trying, and I never saw another decent stroke…
I dunno about “tries,” but it took me about the time that you see from my first post above to my last. I’d say it was less than 20, though. I’m not half bad at logic puzzles.
Um… I like it, but I really want to solve it.
I got everything at max except the box/robot… and now I can’t get back there.
So… I guess I’m askin’. 
Heard of the Slashdot effect? Well, it looks like the site’s been Straightdoped!
Please, please, please, for the love of god please tell me how to get all the levels to max…I have to do work, I can’t spend my life doing this! Man, I feel so thick, I know there is logic behind it but I can’t work it out…GAAAAAAHHH!
How about I give you some general tips?
TIPS: [spoiler] Note the following things:
-
The block goes up to level 12, meaning it needs 12 steps, at least, to get to full power. Also note that the egg is very hard to hatch.
-
Some experimentation should tell you which items need the fewest steps to get to max, and thus can be placed last.
-
Note what happens if you put certain items before others. Do any interactions cause a non-level up or destruction?
-
Try getting certain early items to max, and seeing what they look like, and how they may interact with other things.
-
If the bubbles from the pipe are flying away without having any effect on anything, you’re doing something wrong.[/spoiler]
Someone put a lot of thought into creating this puzzle. It’s brilliant! I showed it to some friends at work last night and we were unproductive for at least an hour. Collectively, we solved it. I got lucky and happened to max out the block on my first try. I can see how that one would be a pain.
Thanks for the link, Telemark!
w00t!!!
And now, I will sleep…
Look, I feel really, really stupid (I can only blame tiredness) can someone put me out of my misery and give me the formula?
Ditto. I’ve played this 5 times already and am still really confused. How does it work? My “drop things at random” strategy leaves something to be desired.
raz: The order in which you insert items is important. The amount they grow, and the way they affect each other as they do so, makes for interactions that can either help or hinder you. You need to figure out the optimal order.
As for WILLASS…
Okay. Use this ONLY if you’re really really sure you don’t want to work on this anymore.
I mean it.
You don’t? You SURE???
Fine.
Here it is.
(You really sure?)
(Okay, okay!)
Insert the items in this order: Block, Ball, Egg, Mountain, Ladder, Pipe, Propeller, Tornado, Gear, Dish, Ring, TV.
Happy now, you cheaters???
it seems completely random, how’d you choose this order as the correct one?
Because it works?
Seriously, the order does several things:
[spoiler]* It allows the blocks the time to grow, and do so fast enough to merge with the guy who climbs down the latter.
-
It allows the pipe to have a grown non-volcanic mountain to rain on, AND the sun to grow the forest.
-
It allows the tornado to merge with the propeller, instead of breaking it apart.
-
It gives the egg time to hatch.
-
It saves the stuff that need relatively few steps to develop (the last three) for last.[/spoiler]
Does that answer your question at all?
