Little Big Planet 3 Signature Series Strategy Guide › Adventure: Manglewood

Challenge Room: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?

Shakes aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, so to speak. Your sack person has been lured into a rather devious diner by a sinister, hamburger-headed host by the name of Irene. She’s insisted that “Matilda the Ravenous” is threatening to shut down the kitchen altogether. Could this have something to do with the rash of disappearances lately?

Sack Person Split

All for One, One for All

There’s nowhere to go besides following the flashing blue arrow. Direct your sack person to drop into the mysterious machinery that churns out this diner’s specialty.

What a shock! Your sack person has fallen into a trap and is now eight tiny sack people. All move in perfect synchronicity. But beware: obstacles can separate them and result in lost sack personages. In order to collect everything that this level rewards, you must preserve at least six until the very end.

Irene insists that your sack person feed its many selves to Matilda, located deep in the diner’s underbelly. With no direction to go but rightward, get a move on that way, and hope Matilda doesn’t chew thoroughly!

Rallying the Troops

Use walls at every opportunity to gather up your sack people. Running straight into walls ensures that they all converge on the same point and can continue onward as a more compact unit.

After getting separated by some shakily moving metal pylons, your sack people all soon funnel back together in a narrow passage. A round gate turns, dropping them down onto a cushiony platform.

Be cautious around the drop-off ahead. Don’t rush off it; just let the sack people fall, and then guide them left while in mid-air to press against the wall. They all fall onto the Bounce Pads as one and are propelled together to the platform.

Run to the right, and jump toward the checkered circle hanging from the ceiling. Grab it, and your sack people should all be holding on to either it or each other. Swing forward and release their grasp to land safely. Try not to lose any to the exposed appliance circuitry below.

Six and Up

For having preserved at least six sack people thus far, you are awarded six Prize Bubbles containing the Fresh Eggs Sign Sticker, Waitress Head Sticker, Popcorn Mascot Sticker, Sad Sackthing Doodle Sticker, Monsters Attack Sign Sticker, and ”Rabbit Pushin’ Mower” Audio.

Regroup your sack people against the wall ahead before hopping atop it. They must all grab the giant spinning checkered wheel. An electrically charged wall directly ahead punishes poor timing.

Jump over the gap ahead, and funnel all your sack people into the narrow passage. The spinning mechanism drops them down parallel tracks through a pair of Prize Bubbles bearing the Hotdog Mascot Sticker and Waitress Body Sticker and then down a slide.

Realign your squad against the next wall, then jump up to another large spinning wheel in need of grabbing. This time, your sack people must leap from a spinning wheel to a smaller stationary circle. Swing from the smaller circle to land safely on the other side.

After that grueling ordeal, you’re rewarded with six more Prize Bubbles. Enjoy the Red Button Sticker, Shop Today Only Sign Sticker, Motel Sign Sticker, Happy Sackthing Doodle Sticker, Hanging Light Object, and Spoon Decoration they offer.

Mind the Gaps

Continue to the left, where your sack people are again funneled and dropped down parallel lines. This time, they’re deposited on separate platforms. Proceed with confidence, as the slightest hesitation in your jumps is sure to doom your tiny charges.

Once they’re all back together on the same platform, direct them onward to the right. When all have dropped off the next ledge, backtrack to group them together once more; they must be close to survive the next jumps. Thrusting electrical components occupy the deadly gaps ahead. Jump between platforms while they recede.

Once clear, you are in the home stretch. Your six or more sack people get showered with six additional Prize Bubbles. Now your Popit has the Number Six Sticker, Tomato Sauce Splat Sticker, Coloured Leather Material, Screaming Mouth Sticker, Wash Cloth Material, and Glazed Cherry Material.

Keep Feeding ‘Em

Past the Fresh Eggs sign above the next Checkpoint is a slippery, shake-covered slide. Your sack people all wind up atop Blue Layer Launchers. Press to launch them straight into Matilda’s waiting mouth. Your sack person is digested and returned to a single entity within Matilda’s stomach. Fingers crossed, and bottoms up!
