Flip-Flopped Folios

Old tomes that have withstood the trying tests of time can take on a life of their own. They are so heavy with meaning that even gravity bends to them. The next marble is lost between the lines here in the topsy-turvy, upside-down folios of this level. Take a look; it’s in a book!

Things are Looking Up

Read Upside Down

To explore the texts, your sack person must adopt a whole new perspective. Follow Papal Mache onto the Layer Launchers, and dive into the scrawled scripts of the folios.

Everything might be upside down, but left is still left and right is still right. Don’t hesitate to pop the four Prize Bubbles, two on each side, to reap the Bundled Documents Object, Stacked Paper Material, Leather Bound Book–Side Object, and Paper Cutouts Material.

Drop up, and head to the right. Before dropping any higher, jump across the gap for the Prize Bubbles there bearing the Frog Head Sticker and Creased Paper Material.

After dropping, your sack person arrives at some normal gravity for a moment as two Prize Bubbles evaporate on contact, giving you the Passing Stars Material and Hare Head Sticker.

The puzzling wall pieces retract as your sack person approaches, but now, you need the Blink Ball to cross the chasm.

Loose Marbles

Landing on Layer Launchers and flying forward, head to the next Checkpoint. Toggle’s marble is tantalizingly close, visible in the background, but a long, twisty path lies ahead of it.

Start by knocking things into motion. Use the Blue Bounce Pad to reach the sponge attached to the chain. Dragging it down causes the hammer in the background to draw back. Let go of the sponge, and the hammer comes swinging down, slamming the marble into a series of tubes.

This opens up a gap to the right that your sack person can drop through, sliding through two Prize Bubbles and netting the Gold Leaf Sticker and Floral Painted Wood Material.

Take the Layer Launchers into the background, collecting the Wolf Head Sticker and Leather Bound Book–Top Object while moving through the air.

Next to the Checkpoint, use the Blink Ball to get past a scorching blue flame blocking the way. Drop up, and on the next level, pop all three Prize Bubbles for the Snake Head Sticker, Brass-U-Bend Decoration, and Bronze Pipe–Medium Decoration.

Tubular Travel

Take advantage of some sucking pneumatic tubes to shoot your Blink Ball through from the background into the foreground. The marble is stuck on an obstacle in the wall. Use the Blue Bounce Pads to grab the sponge and clear the path.

The marble’s motion cranks the next needed platform into place. Its Layer Launchers send your sack person once again into the background pages.

Pop a Prize Bubble while dropping up and into the exposed creature brain of a spiked malcontent above. Take pride in the style with which you obtain the Russian Lace Material. Repeat the feat on the next enemy, leaving the coast clear to burst two more Prize Bubbles that surrender the Gold Book Clasp Decoration and Painted Wood Material.

Take a Velociporter past a literate gorilla. Four Prize Bubbles sitting between layers here require you to wait for the front and back Layer Launchers to activate.

Once done, you can show off the Frog Left Leg Sticker, Ornamental Chandelier Object, Hog Hind Leg Sticker, and Brass Handle Decoration.

Pulling down the next sponge bit in the ceiling opens the passage to the marble and retracts a puzzling wall. From the next Checkpoint, shoot a Blink Ball through the tube to get where you need to be.

Head to the right, and hop up into the background. A Blink Ball shot straight up takes your sack person to the next level. Blue Bounce Pads let you grab the sponge that frees up the marble’s path. Drop down into a Prize Bubble offering the Wolf Body Sticker.

Head back up, where a loose cube has fallen. Drag it back to the left to serve as a step to the upside-down pages.

Fall up into the Prize Bubble holding onto the Stage Floor Material. To the left is another Prize Bubble with the Fox Head Sticker tucked inside, but land carefully on the creature brain above.

Things heat up farther ahead. Avoid the blue flames while landing on the moving platform. Open up the Prize Bubble there for the Blowtorch Flame Decoration.

Shoot a Blink Ball to the left, and tumble upward into another Prize Bubble. Jam out later to its ”Treasure Planet” Audio.

Neutralize the rolling spiked beast ahead as it retreats and leaves itself exposed. Use Blink Balls and Velociporters to surge ahead to a waiting Prize Bubble that grants the Hog Head Sticker.

Wait for the trio of flames to briefly subside, and then drop up through a Prize Bubble. Free the Hog Body Sticker, and keep proceeding to the next Checkpoint. Bounce Pads quickly return your sack person to conventional gravity.

Duck in to the left. Four Prize Bubbles hang on the other side of an impassable flame. To Blink Ball over to them, you must aim the Blink Ball precisely between them. Don’t worry about getting back: another Blink Ball panel appears. Focus instead on the Frog Conductor Hand Sticker, Bear Body Sticker, Gold Book Decoration 1 Decoration, and Green Tinted Spectacles Decoration.

Head back to the right, and Blink Ball past more flames. Don’t miss the Prize Bubble triplets in the corner that offer the Bear Arm Sticker, Letter 2 Decoration, and ”Waltz of the Dumplings” Audio .

Once the panel is past the flame, Blink Ball downward, and return to where up is up! The book your sack person lands on pulls back, leading to a modest drop. As the gears start cranking, your sack person is gifted with a multitude of Prize Bubbles while the platform moves through Brass Cog–Small Decoration, Clock Dial Decoration, Clock Cog 2 Decoration, Clock Cog 1 Decoration, Brass Cogs Decoration, and Brass Gears Material.

After taking out the roving sentry, hop up to where your Blink Ball can get sucked into the tubes.

Appearing in the background, land upward in the page’s margins to pop a Prize Bubble holding onto the Snare Drum Decoration.

Blink Ball to the right, past blue flames. With normal gravity, arrive at the next Checkpoint, where a Prize Bubble is waiting to give you the Frog Right Leg Sticker.

Pull a bit of sponge to nudge the marble back on its way. The passage opening to the left lets you reposition the Blink Ball panel between the flames. Before using it to fall farther up, pop the Prize Bubble for the Bird Silhouette Sticker.

The Last Chapter

From the Blink Ball panel, your sack person tumbles up, gets turned right-side up, flies off Layer Launchers, and arrives in a solemn chamber reserved for only the most important writings. Take the Layer Launchers into the background, and use the Blink Ball to appear between the flames. Use the reversed gravity to press the platform up and finally kick loose Toggle’s marble. Now, that’s a good story!
