You have a lot of work ahead of you in this room. It's the last island for a reason.

It's a good first thought, and gets you thinking about some of the tools available to you.

Those are good assumptions. Think on them for a while. I'll tell you that at least one of them is incorrect, but for now, I think you have enough to be working with, so give it some time. You've been quite observant about tools available, at the very least.

I think I know what needs to be done now, but restricted movement is making it very difficult. Perhaps you can tell if I am on the right path.

So even if I leave 3-tile platform under orb how this helps? What should I be doing? I’m clueless, must confess.

No, I don't get it.
In my best try... I wish the snake was just one tile longer...


but this doesn't seems the correct strategy, according to previous hints...

I’ve tried to figure out this last island by myself and completely failed: i’m stuck, without finding the answer to the question of: how can i make the snake cross the water (pressing PPs 1 and 2, as defined in first post, head first) but getting to PP3 without going north (in order to avoid PP1 getting released)?
I don´t find useful to make the adder shorter before getting to PP3 (even if I could make the adder go south from (16,14) using the platforms- but I can’t -the adder would still be at least three-tiles longer then needed to reach (25,11) and give its head to the mimic’s sword.
So, there’s something I don’t get. Please, any other hint other than already posted?
