I've never had to ask for help (or check a FAQ) in a puzzle game before, but I guess there's a first time for everything.   According to all the engine physics that I know of, level 15-5 is just plain impossible.  It's not like I'm simply missing a complex solution; I just can't GO anywhere from the start without dying!  I never did solve this level in the original PSP version, and once again it's defeated me.  Ugh.

Does anyone have a clue?  It's all I have left for the 15,000 achievement.  And this scenario isn't covered by the PSP FAQ at gamefaqs.

I haven't figured out the whole level yet, but at least to get you started, you can make a running jump to the right and hang on the far platform.  You have to jump right at the edge, and it helps to hold UP when you near the far side to make sure you grab on.  I'm stuck now after grabbing the fire extinguisher, what else to do with the crate without falling to my death...

If this helps you, maybe you can return the favor. :)  I can't get full points on 12-06 and 12-08 for the life of me.  The best times I've gotten are 45"27 (88pts) and 1'05"45 (78 pts) respectively.  Care to share any tips?

Ahh, thanks.  Of course, it turned out to be a control that I didn't know about and had NEVER needed in any previous level.  I didn't know you could grab ledges from a longer distance by holding up.  Tried that jump a hundred times, and it LOOKED possible, but he would never make it.   Even with that to start me off, 15-5 was still easily the hardest level out of Scenario 15, which was by far the hardest Scenario.  Absolutely brutal.

Hmm.  For 12-6, I assume you know you can jump down the ladder instead of climbing down?  Aside from that, the level's straight forward.  I don't remember the details of 12-8 except that it was really painful.  I think you had to go up and around while the fat guy pushed the safe, pull the fat guy up, then go up and around all over again.  And you had to give people orders while running...

Glad I could help. :)  I may have to reopen this thread to ask how you did the rest of 15-5, but I'll give myself some more time with it first.

For 12-6, no I hadn't thought of jumping down the ladder.  I assume you mean to jump into the ladder's hole and snag the ledge, then drop the rest of the way?  I'll give that a shot.  For 12-8, that sounds like what I'm doing already, but I can probably be more efficient about giving orders.  The orders have always been the clumsiest part of the controls for me...

Ok, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to put out the fire burning on the breakable ledges here. If I could just break the top ledge only I could life the little girl up, but I can't seem to break only that without breaking all 3. If you drop the box down, then the fire is still too high up for you to reach. I've even managed to break the ledge under the fire and try to crawl under but that doesn't work either.

I think I'm gonna end up stabbing myself in the brain...

Of course I figured it out the second after posting this. Man that was one brutal level....

Have you checked the thread titled situation 12 yet? Someone posted some very helpful YouTube videos for both 12-6 and 12-8.
