Pipe Puzzle (PlayStation 2, Nintendo Wii and PlayStation Portable)
Towards the end of the level there is a difficult pipe puzzle. Read on to learn how to overcome it...
What do I need to do?
In order for Bart to follow the Stubborn Ape, he needs to be able to jump into the red pipe and come out of the green pipe, not the purple one. For Bart to be able to do this, 6 of the multi-coloured pipes must be connected. You need to connect them using Lisa's "Hand of Buddha" ability.
How do I do this?
Have the "Hand of Buddha" pick up, and then drop, the metal "U" shaped pipes onto the multi-coloured pipes, so that when Bart jumps in the giant red pipe, he goes all the way through and comes out at the other end.
Walk me through it?
The multi-coloured pipes are set out in a 3x3 grid, in front of the "Hand of Buddha", facing Lisa.
There are three, metal, "U" shaped pipes to the right.
- Pick up a metal, "U" shaped pipe and drop it over the yellow and green pipes on the left.
- Pick up a metal, "U" shaped pipe and drop it over the orange and pink pipes in the middle.
- Pick up a metal, "U" shaped pipe and drop it over the orange and yellow pipes on the right.
It should now look like this (bird's eye view):
O U O
U U U
U O U
where U = metal, "U" shaped pipe.
and O = open.
Once you've put the pipes into place, switch back to Bart and have him "grapple" onto the hook above the red pipe, so that he can fall into it. He will go through all of the pipes and come out of the green one at the other side.
Voila! You've done it!
