Level 4 secrets: rain in the woods

· The Turbo Pudding team · 4 min read

In the Pinecone room of Tirralee’s woods, a little white rain cloud with a sleepy face rains on a Stompling, a round brown root with a green sprout and a gray scribble over its head, standing on the top ledge of a stack of grassy ledges, while Tirra, an apricot fledgling with a crest of three feathers, and Lee, a lilac fledgling with a curl on top and a curly tail, watch from two small ledges below, and a pale bubble with a tiny rain cloud inside floats up on the right

Level 4 is the second level of the woods, and it’s where the rain begins. Five rooms: the Pinecone, the Stone bridge, the Fairy ring, the Hollow log and the Picnic basket. The woods march plays twice through, first on an accordion, then on a flute. It’s Tuesday, so here are the secrets of all five rooms.

Rain in a bubble

In the first four rooms of the level, pale bubbles with a tiny rain cloud inside rise from the gap in the floor. A new one comes up every six seconds in the first two rooms and every seven in the next two, never more than three at a time, and only while there are critters left.

Pop one, and a little cloud with a sleepy face comes out right where the bubble was. It rains for about four seconds, straight down onto the first ledge below it, and drifts slowly toward the nearest critter underneath. A spirit in the rain slows to half speed. Keep it in the rain for a little over a second, and the spell washes off: it spins away and lands as a treat. Every next spirit caught in the same shower lands as a better one.

Here is the secret: a cloud never climbs. It only rains on what is below it. So let the bubble rise above the spirits you’re after, then pop it.

The Pinecone

The first room is a pinecone, with rows of short ledges for its scales and five Stomplings, little roots with sprouts, walking around on them. Apart from the walls, nothing in the room is solid. Ledges let bubbles through, so every rain bubble rises all the way to the top. That makes the Pinecone the easiest room for rain. Wait until a bubble is above a Stompling, and pop it.

The Stone bridge

In most rooms, the gap in the floor is four tiles wide. Here it’s twelve, because a river runs through. Fall in, and you drop back in from the sky through an equally wide gap in the ceiling.

Everything that rises from the floor comes up out of that river, right under the bridge. The rain bubbles bump into the underside of the deck and crowd there, and so does the golden note. Every ordinary room hides one note of the Song. Its bubble rises five to eleven seconds in, or sooner once the room is nearly clear, and floats away if nobody pops it within about fourteen seconds. In the Stone bridge, look under the bridge.

In the Stone bridge room of Tirralee’s woods, a glowing golden bubble with a music note inside and a pale bubble with a tiny rain cloud inside crowd under a brown stone bridge deck, while Tirra, an apricot fledgling with a crest of three feathers, jumps up toward them from below, Lee, a lilac fledgling with a curl on top and a curly tail, stands at the edge of the river gap at the bottom right, and above the deck two Stomplings, round brown roots with green sprouts and gray scribbles over their heads, stand next to a red ladybug Spotkin, with green hills and pointed trees behind
Searched “where is the last note”. Under the bridge. Always.

That also means a cloud let out under the bridge can only rain on what’s below the bridge. The two Stomplings up on the deck are a job for your bubbles.

The Fairy ring

Five mushrooms stand in a ring: one in the middle at the top, two at the sides and two at the bottom. A Stompling sits on every mushroom cap except the bottom two, Chirpets hop on the side ledges, and a Spotkin starts out in the middle. The Fairy ring also gets the longest clock in the level: 46 seconds before dusk.

The caps are ledges, but the middle mushroom’s stem is solid. A note rising from the floor stops right under it, so that’s where to look.

The Hollow log

The fourth room is a log, open at both ends, with a knot hole in the middle of its top. Two Stomplings start inside it and two more on top. You can walk in at either end or drop in through the knot hole. Tirra’s bubbles fly further than Lee’s, which helps along the inside of the log.

Inside the Hollow log room of Tirralee’s woods, Tirra, the apricot fledgling, stands at the open left end of the log and blows a round golden bubble toward two Stomplings, brown roots with green sprouts and gray scribbles over their heads, walking along the bottom of the log, while Lee, the lilac fledgling with a curly tail, stands on top of the log beside the knot hole, with one more Stompling on the log’s top to the left and another on the right
Search: “co-op game inside a log”. Lee took the roof.

The bottom of the log is solid, so the note and the rain bubbles stop underneath it, not inside. A cloud let out there helps on the ledges below. For the spirits in the log, use bubbles.

The Picnic basket

The last room is the only one in the level with no rain bubbles: just your bubbles, three Stomplings sitting in the basket, two Chirpets, a Spotkin and a handle of little ledges arching over the top. The bottom of the basket is solid too, so the note waits underneath it.

In the Picnic basket room of Tirralee’s woods, Tirra, the apricot fledgling, drops down past the basket’s left rim toward three Stomplings, brown roots with green sprouts and gray scribbles over their heads, standing on the basket’s floor between two tall brown walls, while Lee, the lilac fledgling with a curly tail, stands on a small grassy ledge of the handle up on the right, with more small ledges overhead and green hills and pointed trees behind
People also ask: “can you jump into a picnic basket?” Tirra can.

On the way up to level 5, Tirra has news: “Rain! The canopy must be close.” Lee answers with a sneeze.

The music-box hollow

Find all five notes of a level, and a secret room opens at the end of it: the music-box hollow. There are no critters and no clock. For twelve seconds, treats rain down from the ceiling while a slow waltz plays.

The music-box hollow in Tirralee, a secret night room with lilac stone ledges, a crescent moon and soft clouds, where apples, rice balls and buns fall from above and lie on the ledges, while Tirra, the apricot fledgling, stands on the top ledge among the treats and Lee, the lilac fledgling, stands on a lower ledge on the right next to an apple and a rice ball
Search history: “secret room bubble game”. It rains snacks.

A note you’ve found stays found, even if you lose the run. And if the fifth note turns up during a run, the hollow opens at the end of that very run.
