Tricky Story Level 258 – Help Cece Cross the Lava Pit

Overview

Stuck on this challenge? This walkthrough breaks down every step so you can move on quickly.

Your objective: Help Cece cross the lava pit.

This level features a two-part challenge: first, a narrative puzzle where you must bypass a magical security lock to open an ancient door. Following this, the main objective is to guide Cece across a perilous lava pit by strategically interacting with environmental elements and assisting her companion to clear the path.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Here's the complete solution. Follow these 12 steps in order — each one is a concrete action you take on screen.

1. Interact with the initial comic panels to advance the story, which reveals a locked ancient door that requires a key.
2. Observe as the key is used on the door's lock, causing it to transform into a small handprint scanner, indicating a new security measure.
3. When prompted by the dialogue, tap the 'Yes' button to confirm Cece placing her hand on the small handprint scanner. This action successfully bypasses the security, opening the ancient door and allowing access to the next area.
4. Drag the pirate flag from the skeleton's treasure chest, located in the lava pit, to Cece. She will grab the flag, preparing it for use.
5. Drag the pirate flag Cece is holding to the thick rope spanning across the lava pit. This attaches the flag to the rope, allowing Cece to extend her reach and swing further.
6. Drag the green snake from the upper ledge to Cece. She will catch the snake, holding it as a tool.
7. Drag the snake Cece is holding towards the monster that is attacking the male character on the upper ledge. This action distracts the monster, causing it to drop the male character's sword.
8. Drag the fallen sword from the ground near the male character to Cece. She will retrieve the sword, arming herself.
9. Drag the sword Cece is holding towards the monster. This action defeats the monster, eliminating the threat and clearing the path on the upper ledge.
10. Drag one of the hanging bats from the ceiling to Cece. She will grab the bat, using it to maintain her momentum and continue swinging.
11. Drag Cece to the right side of the lava pit. This allows her to complete her swing and safely land on the opposite ledge.
12. Drag Cece towards the male character on the ledge and tap his head/hair. This interaction distracts him, allowing Cece to pass by and reach her final objective.

Pro Tips

Use these tips to make things easier — they cover the common traps and fastest route through.

• Always pay attention to character dialogue and visual cues, as they often provide direct hints for the next interaction, such as the 'small handprint' clue.
• Scan the entire environment for interactive objects; even seemingly minor elements like a pirate flag or hanging bats can be crucial for puzzle progression.
• The progress bar (e.g., 1/10) indicates the number of distinct interactions required to complete the main puzzle, helping you track your progress efficiently.
