Hi,
i'm stuck at two places: stairs and plant & ship of captain silver
For stairs and plant: i manage to get the shell up the stairs, but i won't get it to the left, where it has to be placed into the hole. I'm trying this for 2 days now, maybe someone could help me with that? Maybe i'm missing some special-move like the all-destroying-fireball or s/t?

The trick to plant on the stairs (and to many other levels after it) is that while you can't push something along the back of a fish, you can 1) move the fish under an object it is carrying and 2) push it off of the back of a fish. So you need to lift the shell and manoeuvre the lifting fish such that you can push the shell off of the fish and onto the ledge.

thank you, i know this. But i can´t lift the shell near enough to the edge to push it on the edge. And i can´t transfer the shell horizontally. This is unsolvable for me...
Dunno, maybe my mind is too screwed for these things.

It's not unsolvable, you're just not using the fish together in tandem. Lift the shell up next to the ledge with one fish, then use the other fish to lift from the base of the shell. Then you'll be able to push the shell sideways. ASCII Diagram:

hi,
i thank ya well for thy help. I finally managed it by chance. I was that frustrated that i hit random keys, and from one time to another the fish was in a position where he was able to lift the shell in the needed way.
Dunno, a known problem of mine is that i often think way too complicated.
thanks.

Any hints on Second Mate's Cabin would be appreciated. But it's oh so small a level... how can it be so hard? :'(

argh, i'm again stuck everywhere since days.

Independence-day: i KNOW i got to take the head onto the steel-ladder, but i can't get it to the left side by no means.

last journey: no idea

kitchen: i managed to put this wine-glass onto the wood and lift it through the hole, but it's still not high enough

reef: i KNOW the shell has to be put into the hole, but i won't get it over the big shell.

I'm still missing some ways to interact with the items...
