Elefunk Guide - Part 2

The first part of my Elefunk Guide went down well, but most people are stuck a bit further on in the game so I am going to try and finish it as quickly as I can.

Here is the Elefunk Guide Part 2

This time instead of the elephants walking across your bridges, they are now dropped from a height and they roll along them. You also have to make sure they collect every Golden Statue along the way. Some of these solutions are a bit messy and will normally end up with the structure collapsing behind your elephant, but your elephants should still make it to the end which is the only thing that matters.

Level 2-1 : Rolling, Rolling, Rolling
Girders Used: 0
(Thanks to gott1rott at gamefaqs for this method)

It's a bit of a cheat this, but it's the best way to finish the level so there's no point in offering a different solution. First you need to remove the dotted triangle in the picture below. Then you rotate it twice and place it where the blue triangle is in the picture.

With this level (and a few others) the elephant may slightly miss one of the golden statues due to the physics varying slightly every time. If that happens just restart and try again, it should get it after a couple of tries.


Level 2-2 : Cross the Cartouche
Girders Used: 17

This one is fairly simple. Two elephants are dropped and the bridges are at an angle, which works in your favour as instead of making sure the structure is strong enough to hold the elephants impact, you can instead concentrate on using the elephants momentum to your advantage.

As you can see in the picture below, you only need to use 5 triangle and the 2 single girders. With a lot of these levels now, the structures I built were right on the limit, so you may miss a statue by a tiny amount of just not quite make it to the end. If that happens just try again and it should work.


Level 2-3 : It's a Pharaoh Way
Girders Used: 39

This one is also very simple. You can only use triangles but that shouldn't be a problem, the main problem you might have is the elephant losing all momentum if one of your bridges is very weak. If you follow the picture below then your elephant should very slowly make it across to the exit.


Level 2-4 : Trunks Across the Nile
Girders Used: 76

Another tough one. Each structure has to withstand the force of the elphant falling onto it and also remain rigid enough to keep the elephant rolling in the right direction. The structure I built is right on the limit, changing any of these pieces or even just rotating one will probably cause the whole thing to collapes.

Update: Now uses 76 Girders instead of 85, and actually works this time (hopefully).


Level 2-5 : Herd It Thru the Grapevine
Girders Used: 29

I had to go back and get the photos for this level again and in doing so, I was able to reduce the number of girders from 37 to 29. As the elephants fall quite fast, it is not too difficult to get them rolling over to the exit, and you don't need to build any complicated structures. The bottom right section doesn't require any supports, and the upper middle section only requires a single triangle support. The other sections just have 3 supports each.
