      No way? It's seems I have found one :)
      You're clouding the issue with your ball, isn't it? Because I just removed the platform with the draggable. But I don't know why it doesn't work all the time. Sometimes, B is just stucked inside after trying to go to an accessible point to the win spot (which doens't remain accessible after that).

      Okay, I usually rate sneaky levels 4 stars, but somehow my gut tells me to rate this one 5. I liked seeing the familiar setting of the first level. Like I said, the level is sneaky, but most definitely solvable. That said, here's a hint: be observant. Still can't solve it? Here are some more direct hints:
      The water has some ripples... I wonder what that means? ;)
      Well, the Slider also isn't attached to a rail... mistake? I don't think so. (Not the two Sliders at the back)
      The whole back part is useless and just a distraction.
      Have you seen the Draggable that can't move? Well, isn't that suspcious?
      These hints are in steps to solving the level. So the last hint isn't necessarily a much bigger hint than the 1st. But you do need to figure out the first ones before you're able to use the last hints.

      And decoding the cryptic hints:
      When a part ripples, that usually means it's movable. Either it's just free (like with a Motor attached to make it an unattached block), Draggable, or attached to a Slider.
      Not much to decode here. Use the Slider to move the part that ripples.
      Nothing to decode at Hint #3...
      It uses the jump trick. See @retrograde's Tiny Jump Demo.

      There is a vertical Slider that traps B. Quite ingenius, actually. I don't know why you can't always move the platform. Maybe try pushing harder? And I'm sure it's intended that the level is solvable... LoL ;). So you were able to complete it?

      I've solved the level moving the bridge and tapping on the win. But i can't replicate this.

      @Frenzies Sorry I didn't explain well...
      I meant what you wrote but in a bad way. I meant:
      I only need to remove the platform with the draggable... to get to the win. But sometimes I can't get to the win, I am stucked inside without knowing why
      @meko
      But in reverse mode :) I first was unable to get to the win. The path to it has been engaged but B was stucked inside and the path disengaged. So I thought I have missed something with the ball. But on another trial It worked by the inside way :confused: Maybe a kind of tempo mechanism I thought?
    • Frenzies
      @meko @Gepeto Yeah, I figured that might be possible, but it wouldn't work...
      It can probably be solved by putting TWO sliders.

      So did anyone else clear it the "right" way?
    • chemi
      Wop! Done. But honestly it was luck. :confused:
      There is another objective hidden.
      Don't know how to rate it... I would like more if all the elements in the level could be used. Anyway thanks for it @TR O!

      @Frenzies I think I found the right way. Read the spoiler, although it is just a tip (don't know if @TR O would like me to write the solution).
    • TR O
      @Frenzies Thanks for the guts and your detailed hints.
      I also tried many times but it wouldn't work. It is not only by using slider and also a ball on an eye afterwards. It sounds already impossible. Then I think even if it really possible, nobody would bother to keep doing it until it works. Don't know what cause the different outcome for B. Besides, mind I ask you are you using ios or andriod. I'm ios.
      @Gepeto @meko
      Thanks for the comments. Well, your comments show that B would go towards to the win without struggle, right? Please let me know if I'm wrong. In fact, I intended to created an effect to let players think it can be passed but in fact cannot, so I put a trap there to trap B. Not only by a vertical slider but also a ball on an eye afterwards. I test it about one thousand times=P. From different starting position to different tapping position for B. B stuck in any case. So mind if I ask you guys your exact steps or if there any things you do before walking that path. It is a mystery that the cause for the exceptional case. Also, in this case, then @Gepeto 's rate is for completing by your way i guess?=)
    • TR O
      @chemi Sure. You can write whatever you want. And I would consider adding different elements to make levels interesting. Thanks for playing:)
    • chemi
      @TR O I am using Android on mobile phone and B gets stuck 100% of times trying the solution option commented by the rest of colleagues. Just for your info... Perhaps the random behavior is on iOS or in tablets?

      Is it really that complicated?:D
      push the ball down and ride the ball to the lower level. When the ball rolls onto the zapper, walk to the goal.

      Ja, ja, ja... you rock!
      There is a hidden objective on the roof. Make B jump to it with the moving block.
    • nGord
      I haven't read the spoilers yet as this seems like an interesting puzzle. Can someone please verify my solution?
      Get B to push the ball down and as it is rolling on the draggable lift, launch the ball with it over so it rolls onto the win block.
      Thanks.
    • nGord
      How about this way?
      Seeing how I couldn't find another way to get B down, I let him follow the ball down and then over to the win block.
      Again, I'm suspicious of my solutions as they feel like shortcuts. Could someone please let me know without giving away the real solution?

    • chemi
      That is another solution. @nGord with your solution there are four now (although one seems to be some how random). Yours is similar to @richardfu one. But there are more... :rolleyes:
