Help! - Selenia & Beta in the Nutshell Boat

[harrycat]

Does anyone know how to get passed the point where Arthur has to save Silenia and Beta from drowning. For three weeks now I have been trying to get past this point but it is SO hard. I have managed to make it as far as the ledge with the snails a couple of times but either get crushed by one of them or run out of time. I would be really grateful if anyone has a strategy for this because it is driving me CRAZY! Pretty soon I am going to crack and hurl my playstation out of the window! The reason why no-one has posted a walkthrough for this game??? Because no-one has ever managed to finish it!!!

Yes, it took me three weeks to get through that even after I figured out what to do, I kept running out of time. First you have to hop to the rock and then you get extra time. Then keep going forward, over a leaf and finally get to an island. Run around the back side of a rock (left) and you will see some hoops hanging. If you haven't gotten that far, let me know and I will give more details to get to that point. Always hit the clock to get more time (at least twice). When you see the first hoop and jump to it, you have to turn slightly with the square button while still swinging until the next hoop is in front of you. Jump to it and then turn slightly again to the right to lign up with a platform. Jump to that and that will put you on a horizontal log. Drop down and get more time. Up again to the left jump, pause until the screen looks down and you jump backward. Up Up over and get to the next platform for more time. Up, then barely over and fall down to another log which will go around a corner Get to the next platform for more time. Up and then jump backward to the right of the screen. Make it to the next platform for more time. The next sequence is really hard to get to the nutshell. Get down to bottom log as quickly as you can. I tried it by up slightly over, fall down Go around a corner. See a log. Jump backwards to the log. Run down it till you can jump across to a landing area. Immediately try to get up to the left and get to the nutshell. I must have tried this hundreds of times just to get the sequence right and hundreds more times to get their before the clock runs out. Bad part is, if you fail in any of this, you go back to the jump to the first hoop. Let me know if you make it.

Thanks very much ridgerunner..I will try it and see what happens. Think I was going the wrong way and running into the snails so will give it a go and let you know!:)

Hi there, I have been reading your threads and was wondering if anyone can give me anymore help. I can not find this rock that is supposed to give me more time, Im jumping and hitting every thing and my 6 year old is wanting me to save the day, lol...but its been a week or so lol. Also I think I read to push a log out to get more time, but I cant find that. So far all I can do is just reach the hoops before the time runs out. Im on the Playstation 2. Thanks for any help:heart:
