We managed to pretty quickly solve a few late game puzzles that had us stumped for a long long time tonight. One of them was Just "......how the strawberry float did we not solve this already?!" Becuase it was so obvious :fp:

Some of the concepts introduced recently are pretty nuts, like empty.

Bought this yesterday, have only played about an hour but am already stuck :lol:

On level 5 of the lake (brick wall) and I have no clue what to do. It only seems like I can interact with 'Baba is you' and 'Flag is win' but neither really help as the flag is walled off and I can't get to 'wall is stop'. I've got some other levels available so I may have to leave this one for a bit.

I feel this is the kind of game where even giving a hint somewhat spoils the experience so I will say nothing...except I'm in pretty much the exact same position on "Prison" in the next section. I've spent hours and I just don't get it :lol: :fp:

Wonder when the new patch is going to hit with the online level sharing?

I managed to do a few other levels while on the train earlier and have unlocked the next area so luckily I have plenty more to be getting on with, but I feel like I must be missing something completely with that one puzzle as I can't think of anything. I imagine it has a really obvious solution as well.

Exactly this. Hints defeat the point of figuring it out.

Just had a productive session, solved 3 really tough puzzles we've been stuck on for months :toot:

I've just got up to Prison and I'm stumped myself. Think I'll need to come back to this one.

Well done! I've had to leave it for the time being as was making no progress. The 'has' puzzles are quite interesting.

We've just been doing some of the tougher ones we'd left, and got a couple more done. Amazing what a break and a fresh look at a puzzle can do.

Yes taking a break definitely helps. Just went back to Prison after watching some television and completed it almost immediately.

The game is absolutely insane :lol:

We thought we were nearly done, not will levels are completed, but most are unlocked, so on the main map you have numbered levels like you did at the start. In one of those is the new word level. Within that one, I moved the word flag along side it, the level just ended, went back to the map and there was now a flag where the level number had been :o. In another level, I managed to put the word baba in the same scenario, and then I had baba on the map. As the map had the rule Baba is you in the bottom left, and flag is win, I could move baba along side the level select cursor, allowing me to win the map :lol: Then it put me in a sub level of levels.

Madness. What a great game.

I'd kinda forgotten about this game and this lockdown feels like a good time to return to it. Haven't looked at your spoilers, Ad, 'cos I want to approach each level fresh! All I remember is that I got stuck on a level and couldn't work out a way forward... will return to it today!

I have been having a lovely time going fishing, looking at trees and playing keyboard with pals in Animal Crossing. And now Ad has ruined it :x :lol: .

I'm still stuck on "Research Facility". I must have spent well over two hours on it and it feels like I've tried everything... but obviously I haven't.

I was kinda thinking of looking up the solution but I know I'll kick myself if I did that. So I'll just keep tinkering about.

Baba has the ability to make one feel like both a genius and an absolute imbecile :lol: .
