Ground Hog Day Level 1-36 is solved in two steps. Build a four metal box square contraption. Place a horizontal power wheel on the top left and vertical power wheel on lower left frame. Place the turbo engine below the pig and the wood wheel horizontally on the right. Do not use the steel wheel as it is a forbidden part. For our second step, we built an “L” shaped three box cart by replacing the top right frame with the steel wheel for speed. This should allow you to navigate your vehicle to the finish line within the time limit.
If you have a different strategy for completing this level feel free to leave a comment below.
I tried this method and built exactly the same vehicle. But I can’t finish within 9 seconds. Either the pig falls out or the vehicle breaks.
Or I finish in 10 seconds.
And in addition to that, I wasted a mechanic. The mechanic only helps to finish the level (what I already did), but he does not help to finish in 9 seconds., so it’s really useless. I did not buy it, it was one of the 3 free mechanics.
Swap the wood and small wheels. Then move the large wheel down from the wood box to the box with the engine. I finished with almost .3 seconds to spare.
Thanks, @danbarth. I think this has to be the trickiest level in GHD, and your method was pretty reliable after a little practice.
The most notable thing I can say here is: Notice at the top of the first climb, I toggle the motor off then back on. This has to be pretty quick, but you need to
1) Slow down enough to not wreck, AND
2) Keep up your speed since the timing is tight (I think I had .17s to spare).
I followed @DanBarth suggestion (by the way, thank you) but made on small change. I omitted the top wood box all together. Wait for the vehicle to come to a complete rest after starting level then just “go”. I never had to stall the engine, just let it go. Thanks again.
SpyderVenom’s method works, but I had to toggle the motor off briefly as in the video.
This worked on the first try after dozens of failures using the video strategy.
Thanks Venom. Worked the first time.
Thank you all. Let me try again.
well, I swapped all metal box into wood, then I suppose to wreck it at the top of map, when it wrecked the pig was thrown to finish line, got about 0:28 left lol that was lucky wreck.
Timing is everything on this one for the time icon. After trying several configurations that came up short time-wise, I got the configuration here to work, but it was only the block with the pig and wheels that made it across. :)
On the time portion of this level, lose some weight! Change out two grey blocks for wood(top and right). Leave the grey one with the engine in it. Otherwise like the setup in the first part of the video. I had approx. 1.5 seconds at the finish.
One-time method ( video ).
Excellent solution!
thanks 3 stars first time.
Thanks worked for the time challenge on second try with almost 1 second left! (0.85)
Definitely the best solution!
Wow! That works absolutely brilliantly! No driving skill required, unlike all other methods, so it works every time.
Awesome, this worked second try. First try I didn’t shut off the motor and the wheel dragged me to a stop, LOL.
HUGE THANK YOU.
this method is the best!! Thanks so much!!!
Ha! I krak’d just before the top but the silly device kept pushing me along, rocketed me down the slope to the finish with 0.28 to spare.
wew I got 0:28 to spare, wrecked almost the way to the bottom too
@DanBarth, perfect, thanks!
can i have the 2nd contraption pic? following the written part not working for me
