I make it to top of Slime Climb, then get knocked off by the poles on the final run up to finish. :negative:

I wish there was a practice mode just for slime climb

The way I play Tip Toe is aggressive at the start with jumps, but after that, if the group gets bogged down, I focus on quick grabbing to maintain my position, while watching the last tiles to see which ones shake. If they shake, they're fake, and since the last two tiles before the finish line are always of the same type, that helps me anticipate which path I'm going to need to take.

Forming a mental map of what tiles are good and what tiles are bad based on what you've seen shake is a skill that can be developed. Just don't worry about what shakes until the last half of the map, watch closely for the shake, and work backwards from the last tiles before the goal line to where you are, and once you see a path, or at least a likely path, make your move.

I was thinking of doing a big write up and giving a lot of tips, but honestly, I've cribbed basically everything I know from the guy I'm about to link. I have no connection to him other than I found his YouTube channel when I was trying to figure out how to win my first crown, and I've followed his advice and now I'm winning several times a day on limited play time. If he turns out to be a secret monster, I apologize in advance, but he seems like a decent resource.

Wall Guys is fine if you do your own thing on the other side from the mob. I managed to move three blocks at the end while everyone was fighting for space on the obvious block and came in second.

In the last 10 finals I've had Fall Mountain show up once, no tail tag, and an even mix of the other two.

I actually like Wall Guys because most of the time you can gently caress with a lot of people by pulling the obvious block to the wall out, run to other side to make your own path and catch the remaining beans play prisoners delimma of who has to get off and push.

Logged back in after more than a year.

Played two rounds.

Crowned on the second one.

I remain a god of this game and have no further need to confirm my genius.

For a year my toddler demanded I play a few rounds as a bed time routine. I won like one crown legitimately in all that time.
