Good, I never look at the bee tails before. :o

I cannot finish this! I make it to the last turn stile and get my bubble popped everytime. I tried for a half hour last night doing it over and over with the same result. I get through the first small turn stile fine then either get popped by the second one or I hit the corner of the wall. I can see the finish but just not get there.

The circular bees follow the same circle each time. You can sneak past them once you have seen
the space they leave, to the left of the circle.

Great, I was so excited to finally make it past the double turnstile and then I ran into the bees! Almost had it and then POP!

Just imagine this: a way for them to make it harder...

You know the dark bit in the Wii Fit Plus version? What if they put bees in there? :shock:

Utter death and destruction! :twisted: Unless they made them glow in the dark bees, that is.

The general trick with the bees is to watch them carefully. There are two types: straight and circular.

Straight bees wiggle their tails before they sprint along a line and then rest before turning round to go back. Most go across the river, a couple go along, and the one just before the finish line starts to cross, but stops directly in your path.

Circular bees fly in circles, either singly or in a pair.

Either way, they all fly according to a time-based pattern which you can exploit.



With all due respect, Cynique--you need to "get a life" :lol: Or maybe I'm just jealous--how do you remember this stuff?? It's all I can do to finish a course in any of the Wii Fit Plus games let alone remember what happened when :shock:

jilntom, I think we all need to get a life :D :D and we found it in Wii fit plus and this forum :D The more I do the more I remember. I never thought I could find my way all around the islands many locations but look at us now. Getting the better half involved also helps. :D

I love this one - it's just about the only one where my hubby can't beat me. The tip about hanging the toes off the end of the board was invaluable - but be prepared to really move. Yesterday I decided to take over all 10 of the best times so I just kept at it over & over. I am looking forward with great anticipation for him to discover that I have knocked him completely off the board. :twisted: It becomes much easier once you have the route memorized & know what to expect & when to expect it.
