Click at the bottom of the fishing line and a man will pull up a fish. He’ll go inside to cook and eat it. Lizards will start climbing up the cliff face. Click on them to knock them off as they will slow down the eating of the fish.

Once the man has finished eating he will throw the fish bones outside. Click on the fish bones before the bird carries it away. The gnome will then jump on the bird as it flies close and hitch a ride.

The bird will drop you off at the top of a giant cliff.

Click on the hole in the middle of the tree to reveal a squirrel trying to listen to music. She can’t hear anything because the worms are too noisy. Click on the worms one-by-one to have the bird eat them.

Once the worms have been eaten click on the little red button on the music player to play a disc.

Inside you’ll see six buttons, a Q meter and the direction. On the machine you’ll see the phrase “Q = 50”. This is a clue to set the Q meter to 50.

The left three buttons have a + sign at the top, a – sign at the bottom and a ladder symbol in the middle. Press the button next to the + sign twice until the Q meter shows 50. Then press the middle button to let out the ladder.
