Game Guide
I. Preparation Before Starting a Level
On the game's main interface, first pay attention to the number of diamonds. Diamonds can be used to purchase items in the shop, which help in critical moments to clear levels. Click "DAILY" every day to claim daily rewards, which may include diamonds, hint items, etc., and are beneficial for subsequent level challenges.
II. Key Operations in Levels
(1) Observe the Entire Scene
After entering a level, do not rush to operate. First, observe the entire scene, clearly see the positions of obstacles such as flames and fences, as well as the distribution of interactive objects like wooden barrels and mechanism buttons. At the same time, confirm the initial positions of the male and female characters and plan a general route to clear the level.
(2) Prioritize Removing Key Obstacles
Flames are usually the most troublesome obstacles. Prioritize finding ways to extinguish them. For example, clicking a wooden barrel at a specific position may trigger a mechanism, causing water to flow out and put out the flames. If there are no items to directly extinguish the fire, look for mechanisms that can change the direction of the flames or block them.
(3) Utilize Terrain and Mechanisms
The terrain and mechanisms in the scene are key to clearing the level. Some fences can be opened by clicking mechanism buttons; some walls can be knocked open by moving specific objects. Make rational use of these mechanisms to open safe passages for the characters. At the same time, pay attention to special marks on the ground, which may indicate the location of hidden mechanisms.
(4) Plan Character Movement Paths
Based on the positions of obstacles and mechanisms, plan the movement paths for the male and female characters. Try to choose the shortest and safest route, avoiding letting the characters walk into dead ends or get close to dangerous areas. You can first move one character, observe changes in the scene, and then decide the action of the other character.
III. Dealing with Complex Levels
When encountering complex levels, if you cannot find a way to clear them, you can use hint items, which will provide key operation prompts. In addition, do not be afraid to try. Each failure is a deeper understanding of the level. Trying different operation sequences and paths often helps find the way to clear the level.
