Stage 17

This board may take a few tries, but once you understand the pattern, you will find it surprisingly easy to proceed.

  1. Unless you have fireballs for all three wizards, don't bother trying to take the more obvious path along the bottom. The easiest way is to traverse through the Sparkie forest.
    • Wait for the closest Sparkie to pass and then build a brick immediately to your left
    • Jump onto the new brick and surround yourself with bricks. This blockade will protect you as long as you stay in it, however, you need to move on quickly in order to stay in sync with the Sparkies' pattern.
    • The instant the Sparkie from above clears your blockade, break the left block and fill the next gap to your left.
    • Stand on the gap you just filled and build another blockade
    • Repeat this blockade-and-pause pattern until you cross all four gaps
  2. Jump on top of the Sparkie forest and make your way to the right, pushing them out of your path with well-timed blocking
  3. Drop the blue flames, ascend, and finish the board.

  1. Ascend up the right side, keeping yourself as close to the wall as possible
  2. Create a drain directly under the Skull generator
  3. Drop the blue flames if the Skulls have not done so already.
  4. Exit

Just make sure to drop the middle of the three flames before you climb up to enter the upper door chamber. Place a block over the flame so you have something to drop onto after the dragon shoots the top flame down when you get close.
