Walkthrough
- Run right as Grab-Grass pursues you. Follow the pale-blue platforms and keep your next landing in view instead of waiting for the creature to catch up.
- Flutter past the Croakaoke row and drop onto the lower flower route. Rejoin the rising platforms immediately so the pursuer cannot trap you below them.
- Take the final lower-platform flower, then use the hanging vines to climb away and reach the exit.
Smiley Flower locations
The locations are listed separately from the main route so you can check a missing flower without repeating every step.
Smiley Flower 1 — Opening gap
Opening gap: land on the first pale-blue platform between the brown ledges.
Smiley Flower 2 — Croakaoke section
Croakaoke section: take the flower on the route across the long platform and its row of bouncing creatures.
Smiley Flower 3 — Below the long platform
Below the long platform: drop to the brown lower ledge for the flower, then jump back onto the route.
Smiley Flower 4 — Next low clearing
Next low clearing: collect the flower on the brown floor between the raised pale-blue platforms.
Smiley Flower 5 — Before the vines
Before the vines: drop onto the lower pale-blue platform on the right for the final flower, then climb out.
Creatures and additional discoveries
Grab-Grass is a chase hazard. Staying still to observe a platform wastes your lead; learn the lower flower detours and make one continuous run through them.
Before leaving
- Check the habitat’s flower counter against the locations above.
- Finish the main objective before entering the sparkly exit.
- Review the creature’s book entry for an unrecorded interaction or a later discovery event.
