[Baba is You] Stumped again.

I can see that my final objective is going to be to use the words from Water is SINK and the cog to push Flag through the skulls. What I can’t figure out is how to get the cog across the River.

I can’t make the cog not MELT or the water not HOT

The only thing I can turn the cog into is water, and that’s not helpful

I can turn the water into skulls or walls but that’s not useful

I can form Water is Water but again, not useful.

I can make the Flag into Water or make it SINK but that’s not helpful either

So??????

Oh my god when things are Sink text will cancel them out too

I didn’t know that

Need to go to bed, but I’m stuck on this one.

The basic facts:

1. There are three object in the room of different types
2. These objects can be transformed into each other, but there’s no way to make all of them the same thing because doing so would require breaking up the ‘is YOU’ sentence, because there’s only one Is in the scene.

3. To extricate Win from the island, two of these objects must be sacrificed to the water
4. After sacrificing each one, there needs to be at least one of them left in the level for me to control

5. I can control two types of object at once, but it requires the use of my only And, meaning that I can’t control both of them AND have them be Open at the same time.

Therefore, it’s impossible?????

In theory I suppose I could break the containment river around the Water is SHUT and STOP in the bottom right, but all I could do with that is make objects into more water (opposite of helpful) or make them STOP and SHUT in their own right (also unhelpful)

...wait

I was assuming I needed to remove the Win from the island

But what if...I just pop the one tile on the left wall, and push it FURTHER BACK instead

And spell out ‘Key/Flag is OPEN and WIN’

I'm stuck on the same puzzle that you opened with, what do you mean by when things are Sink, text will cancel them out

if you push text onto SINK, the text and the sink thing will be destroyed

ah right
