Overview
Stuck on this challenge? This walkthrough breaks down every step so you can move on quickly.
Your objective: Help Cece and Lucien cross the river safely.
Cece and Lucien need to cross a wide icy river. This level abandons traditional river-crossing logic, adopting extremely hardcore "absurd rope ladder stacking" mechanism. Players need to use great sword to fell trees, dig pits, attract animals, and stack a series of unrelated animals, bones, farm tools, and sacks like puzzle pieces between tree trunks to create a "heavy miscellaneous bridge" across the river to successfully escort them to the other shore.
Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Here's the complete solution. Follow these 8 steps in order — each one is a concrete action you take on screen.
- Lucien great sword chop tree: Drag Lucien's great sword to left tree root to cut it down. Tree falls toward river as main bridge (left ground leaves stump).
- Shovel dig foundation (ladder left side): Click or drag shovel in scene to lower grass to dig deep pit, then insert shovel diagonally at right bridge head as reinforcement lever (progress 2/8).
- Lay bridge deck foundation (sack binding): Drag large dark sack on ground to right bridge head to firmly press and fix tree trunk end, preventing bridge shaking (progress 3/8).
- Bone bridge (stepping first layer): Find giant ancient beast bone on grass or through specific interaction, lay it horizontally in center of two main trunks (progress 4/8).
- Rabbit signpost (stepping second layer): Lure out three white rabbits hidden in grass (or connect them in row), drag to have them neatly lie below big bone as soft stepping stairs (progress 5/8).
- Crocodile anti-slip (stepping third layer): Click or lure large crocodile from upper left lotus cluster, after scaring or taming it, drag to have it lie horizontally below rabbits to fill huge gap in left bridge deck (progress 6/8).
- Divert river water wisteria: Repeatedly click lotus/water plants floating on water surface to move them away or change flow direction, reducing river water impact on wooden bridge while triggering cold air (progress 7/8).
- Cross to other shore (final): When crocodile, rabbits, big bone, shovel and sack are all perfectly locked on bridge deck, click or drag Lucien and Cece significantly rightward. They walk safely to right cliff stepping on this absurd miscellaneous bridge (triggers line "Brr, it's really cold."), achieving 8/8 perfect completion!
Pro Tips
Use these tips to make things easier — they cover the common traps and fastest route through.
- Strict stacking space judgment: This is a bridge with big bone ➔ three rabbits ➔ crocodile arranged right to left. If sequence or position slightly deviates from trunk angle, animals bounce back to grass.
- Shovel and sack are right balance stakes: Many players stuck at 6/8 because animals are all placed but ignored blue shovel diagonally inserted at right bridge head and dark sack pressed on bridge deck - these two tools play decisive fixing role.
