Help with The Grinch

dataentrylooker · #1 12-14-2006, 05:38 PM

I know that you have already had a post recently with The Grinch. Sad to say, I'm not that far yet! I cannot get out of Whoville! I can get up to the limit of eggs (200) and I think my last count was around 175 presents. I have no clue what to do next. Can you please help my out? Thanks!

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #2 12-14-2006, 07:27 PM

Well, I can certainly try! Have you done any of the missions as of yet in Whoville or have you just run around smashing what presents you can find?

If you haven't done any missions yet step into a phone booth and change into your cloak then go to the post office. Your first mission is "shuffle the mail". Go into the room directly in front of you- ignore Cindy Lou Who as she will only distract you from your mission at hand. Now go back out and up the hallway to the right, avoiding the security beams. You'll come to a purple door. Stand in front of it and call Max. Send him through one of the holes in the wall to make his way to the room (use the hole across from the door and make 2 lefts). Once in have Max stand on the switch to open the door and activate a timer. Run straight in and go to the cubicles to mix up the mail. There are several other rooms to do this same process for.

Have you also been collecting the blueprint pieces? You'll need these to make gadgets for completing later missions.

I must say---I am pretty impressed at the response! We have been running around, smashing the presents. I have gone into the phone booth and pressed a bunch of buttons, but a cloak never came up. I will see if I can look through the manual to pull that up. Once again, great job! I will let you know if I have more problems! I appreciate the quick and helpful response--I'm sure my son thanks you as well! THANKS!!!

Ok---I'm feeling pretty stupid right about now, but I cannot find a cloak. Where do I find it? I went into the phone booth and pressed every button. I looked all over the hideout too.

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #5 12-15-2006, 05:30 AM

Go to Countdown to Christmas Clock (the building with the guard sleeping outside it and the big "030" on top). Tiptoe past the guard as if you go by normally he'll wake up and make life miserable. Go inside and you will find the cloak as well as a few more presents to smash. Don't worry about trying to get further through the building- that comes later.

Awesome---thanks! Didn't even know I could go into those buildings! Now I have finished with Whoville and I am in the Forest.

I need help with the Grinch too. I am in Whoforest and I don't know how to bring down the elevator on the big hollow tree. I read somehere to shoot the red and white spinning with my egg launcher but I already did some many times and it did nothing. I finish almost all my missions for Whoville but I am totally stuck in Whoforest. I swung on those branches to get on the cliff and I can't do much because I don't have my blue prints for the rocket spring. Is there anywhere else I can go or do or do I have to go on that elevator? Thank you.

If you hit the target on the cabin atop the tree the elevator should be ready and waiting for you at the bottom. had no problem with it when i played the game several years back.

Game_Freak · #9 01-06-2007, 07:23 PM

Do you mean the red and white spinning wheel or there is a seperate target that is on the cabin itself?

dataentrylooker · #10 01-06-2007, 11:01 PM

If I remember correctly, there is a red and white bullseye on the front of the cabin. I think it is on the right-hand side of the door. I was able to shoot at it from the top of the cliff.

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #11 01-07-2007, 05:42 AM

That's the one to hit- should be just beside that cabin's door.

Game_Freak · #12 01-07-2007, 10:17 AM

Thank you. I figured it out. How do I make the trees droop and where are the Mayor's skis so I can slim them?

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #13 01-07-2007, 10:24 AM

Use your egg breath to make the trees wither up. You'll find the mayor's skis at his cabin, found in the other section of the forest- you'll need to use the ski lift to get there.

Game_Freak · #14 03-10-2007, 01:01 PM

Thanks for your help. You have been helping me out tremedndously.

I am at Who Dump now and I am stuck. I already did a couple objectives but how do I conduct the stinky gas to bris's shack? I read somewhere I have to shoot the T at the pipes, what does that mean?

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #15 03-10-2007, 06:22 PM

Look for sections of pipe that is shaped like the letter T- give them a shot with the egg launcher to knock them in place. There should be 10 of these in all scattered throughout Who Dump.

Game_Freak · #16 03-12-2007, 03:09 PM

Thanks. I got 9 of them and I know the last one is past the pipes with the smoke coming out in the main entrance. I read somewhere if you get all nine of the pipes that section should open up for you. Is that true? How do I get that section to open up for me?

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #17 03-12-2007, 03:22 PM

Back in the main entrance area there should have been a spot you couldn't reach before because of steam pipes on either side of the path. You should be able to go through there now (collecting a blueprint on the way). This is where you should also find the last robot for computer parts and birds to steal food from.

Shoot the orb with a red egg and then turn off the steam valve where the orb was. Now go around it counter clockwise and change the positions of the levers. Change the first lever again then turn the steam valve back on. This should complete gassing Who Bris' shack.

Game_Freak · #18 03-12-2007, 08:09 PM

But I still can't get pass the steam pipes. I have completed the "Rat Mission" and the "Shaving the Dump Guardian Mission" and nine times I got food from the birds and nine times I have got robot parts. Can I not get pass yet if I didn't get all the blue prints, except the last one? Could you please tell me where all the blue prints are? Thank you.

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #19 03-12-2007, 08:26 PM

I'm not entirely sure why that won't turn off. maybe you have to do some messing with switches someplace that you missed?

Game_Freak · #20 03-12-2007, 08:37 PM

You mean not all my regular ten pipes for my mission but some other ones?

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #21 03-13-2007, 07:22 AM

Through the level there are some switches (levers) that need to be moved around- maybe one of those controlled that steam. Also, somewhere in the level is a piece of pipe that has to be shoved in place (not one of the T pieces). You may want to retrace your steps from the start of Who Dump and make sure you didn't miss anything.

iiJonasLove · #22 09-29-2007, 04:07 PM

i can't get the last blueprint for the first gadget is there a certain spot you need to be in please help!!!

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #23 09-29-2007, 04:39 PM

Which particular piece is it you still need Jonas?

If it is the one on the ledge above the kid you'll find a pole to jump and grab onto, then swing on it and jump to the ledge. It's a mite tricky and may take a few tries. he should be to your left as you leave the Countdown to Christmas clock.

iiJonasLove · #24 09-29-2007, 04:58 PM

ive tried about 1231845028354028635 4times lol is thioer a certain spot you need to be in b.c when i try im about 1ft away from it i have past that part b4 but cant find my memory card so how can i get past is

**Lyndon M STAFF** · #25 09-29-2007, 05:04 PM

Unfortunately there is no easy way past this bit- the timing has to be pretty exact on the release. There's no particular pint on the pole to be, just get the jump right.
