mini and max story help.

[julee ☮]

hi, i really love mini and max, and seem to have done most with it (like i'm only missing 4 items). i seem to have done most of the quests, but i have no idea where the "questline" to get to the doorknob would actually start. i don't mind spoilers, but all my leads have gone dry :( no online playthrus to check my progress. so any little help would be appreciated. I've done the lamp, moldak, plant quests (NO WATERBEAR tho, idk where he is help) spider, cockroach, clock, books, tank, etc theres sooo many .. only thing i havent done is the dungeon with the falling rocks in the flowerpot. just need a hint to get me to the endgame, since theres not much i'm finding in the overworld now :)

If you got the item (a book, I think) that allows you to command bugs, then you can jump on a flying creature and make it fly as high as you need to reach the doorknob.

I wouldn't mind a hint on the cockroach, though, I missed that (I'm near the full end game).

of course :) for cockroach. super cool. so FIRST, you have to have the power outlets exploded. do this by talking to the scientist on the bottom, rightmost power outlet by the door (there is a little dot indicating). when those explode, walk thru them like a door. this will lead you to a new area that allows you to open up all the guard doors when all is said and done. one of those guarded doors has to do with cockroach. lmk if you need more help

Thanks!

As for your question: if you jump on a butterfly or a flying microbe, if you have the right book, you can command it to fly up by going up. Go up repeatedly and you can fly to the doorknob (start from a high point).

You can also go from the shelf, there is a trampoline thing that allows you to reach a high platform. If you glide from there using a flying thing (butterfly or microbe), you can glide to the doorknob.

EDIT: thanks again, beat the cockroach and got the armour, I only miss the last item and I know how to beat mission 2. It would have never occurred to me to use the damaged power outlets as doors.

Do you mind me asking where you can find the item that let's you command the bugs?

i think that item is one you can find in multiple places around the map at the lowest size level. but ik most traders sell key items. thats why you find some traders with only 2 items for sale, because you already found the third item they sell. searching my memory, i vaguely remember possibly the wheels around the train car? that or up by the pencil.

I think I found that item in the micro world, randomly.

could I ask for any hints on finding a bottle for the various quests that require it? I feel like I've searched everywhere ;-; Also the tank please I'm clueless lol

also as for the water bear it's found 7 tiles from the left side in the area west of the algae town on the left flower pot!

@TheHelmetCrab

Your first question: the bottle is sold by the dust bunnies to the left of the shelf.

Your second question: do you mean the tank enemy? That's in the WAR book on the middle shelf.

With the thanks you're supposed to go at the end of the level to the right and find an item. Like most quests in the game, you're then supposed to give it to someone (who says so explicitly).

For the water bear, you can defeat it by jumping on it then attacking its tongue which got out. It's easier if you found several powerups (health, attack). You can use blue chitin to attack more effectively. You can also use the item found at the end of the tanks, I think.
After you defeat it, a micro-city will be relieved.
