What is the proper procedure for sloth-swinging across three poles in cave 3 of The North level? I know how to make the first swing with the sloth form but cannot seem to continue the swing to the second pole. As I jump off the first pole, I end up beyond the second pole and fall to the ground. Do I need to change forms while in midair after the first pole? If so, what form or button do I need to switch to?

Hi Jim, I wasn't able to find anything. Hopefully someone will be along that has played soon.

Ana luck

Oh, boy, Jim. It's been a couple of years since I played the game and I played on the PC. I do remember the sloth-swinging in that cave being tricky though. I just don't remember what I did! I hope someone else can help you.

Jim, I found some Videos Here that might help.

I also found these instructions from totalvideogames.com
Quote:
After you have chased the boy and he tells you how to go to the docks, go there. Collect the marbles then wall forward to the beam. Jump on the beam and go to the end. You must go to the end of the beam. Do not jump when the action light first appears, but instead go all the way to the end of the beam or you will fall into the water. After you have jumped on the train, use your insight to see where to jump next. Use your Sloth form. When you land on the box, turn back to the left and jump to the next sloth swing, which will take you to the next level up. Collect all the items. Use your Insight on the two birds before you get too close and they fly away. Use Sloth or Bird form to jump down to the pillar. If you use the Bird form you can control where you land easier. When you get to the second pillar you can either collect the items to the left bu jumping from crate to crate or by just climbing up from the second pillar and then changing to Sloth form. Use Insight to see where to jump next. When you leave the sloth swing, you will land on a beam and go to a second beam halfway across the last one. Exit from the second beam to the train. Go to the end of the train by the crane.


And there is a Walkthrough Here.

I'm not sure if any of those will help, but it never hurts to look and see if something will click for you. luck

I wish I would have had those instructions when I played the game! That part took me days... but then I was playing the PC version which had horrid controls. I just don't remember what I did in that cave.

Thanks for coming back and letting us know. You never can tell when another player will have the same problem. wave
