Basic Strategies

Image
  Basic Strategies Granny can handle anything that Mr. Fang throws at her! Here are some basics to get her going. When Going for a Maximum Score, there are a few tricks to getting there. Collecting all the flowers in a level is a must, but first focus on cat rescue before finding all the flowers. Rescuing as many cats at once is critical to getting a High Score. On some levels, every cat can be rescued at once, on others, this is impossible. Granny’s score will stack up with each subsequent cat rescued rewarding her more than the last. If Granny only rescues one at a time, this will result in the lowest score -but won’t otherwise effect her progress.

levels will challenge Granny’s reflexes and skills at using weapons & items properly

  Beating a Tough Level with enemies. These levels will challenge Granny’s reflexes and skills at using weapons & items properly. Keep in mind that a rescued cat will stay rescued, even if Granny needs to start over. Moving quickly to rescue cats and water Vines and Killer Tomatoes will make the level a bit easier if Granny dies and has to start again. Leaving a level and returning, or if Granny has to Continue after “Game Over” will reset the level, however. Use Dog Bones sparingly and only on the toughest levels. Granny can take her time when a Dog Bone has been used. Pausing the game will also allow for some time to look at a level and plan a strategy. Hit “Esc” or click “Menu” to pause.

Beating a Tough Level without enemies

  Beating a Tough Level without enemies. Levels without enemies are generally of the “puzzle” variety. This doesn’t mean Granny can’t die though! Falling into a Bog, getting stuck, or falling off the level are all possibilities. Take time to study the level. Try to work backwards from the goal if the solution isn’t straightforward.

Working with Crates.

  Working with Crates. Granny can build bridges, span gaps, open new paths, and walk safely over bogs by pushing Crates into the right spot. Be careful where she pushes them, however. A crate in the wrong spot may mean that Granny has to restart the level! Try different ways of getting a back into the right spot. Sometimes Granny can find a way around a Crate and push from the other side. Digging under a Crate will destroy it when the ground fills in again. If a Crate falls of a level, it will reappear right back where it started!

Doors, Switches, and Gates

  Doors, Switches, and Gates. Cat Doors can serve as a handy place to put cats while Granny is busy fending off enemies. Be sure not to rescue cats until all the cat doors have been opened! If Granny hits a Conveyor Belt Switch or a Light Switch, remember that she can run past them again to reverse their effect. Gate Switches can be held down one of two ways: with a Crate on top, or when Granny stands on one.

Weapons & Tools

  Weapons & Tools Granny has a bigger arsenal than ever. But not all pots and pans are equal. Know how and when to use each item. If Granny is carrying a Tool or using a Weapon, picking up another will cause her to drop the one she was carrying. Umbrella. Picking up an Umbrella can allow Granny to float down slowly and get to hard to reach places. Walking over an Air Jet will cause Granny to lift into the air. Umbrellas do have their downside: they’ll slow Granny down when she’s trying to outrun enemies.
