BIG WALK Climbing Puzzle: Kick the Reward Block to the Top

Line up controlled kicks one tier at a time, keep spotters above the block, and finish on the top pedestal.

Direct solution

Enter the sunken tiered arena on top of the cliff and start beside the block containing the Red Blob. Do not try to clear several levels with one hard kick. Put one player behind the block, one on the next platform as a spotter, square the block with the centre of the next ledge, and use a controlled kick. Reposition after every successful tier. At the top, move the block fully onto the pedestal and wait for registration. If it falls, restart from the last stable tier and change the kick angle before adding power.

Where to go

The climbing challenge is a tiered pit embedded into the top of a cliff, not a tall tower. The reward is visibly enclosed in the movable block at the lowest active level.

Before starting

  • Use at least two players for safer spotting.
  • Clear loose players away from the kick line.
  • Choose the centre of each next platform as the target.

Player-count plan

2 players

Use one player for each information or action side. Use one kicker below and one spotter on the target tier.

3-12 players

Keep the two core roles unchanged. Extra players should spot, carry, or record the current sequence without creating a second caller.

Common mistakes

  • Kicking diagonally while the block is still turning.
  • Trying to skip tiers.
  • Crowding the block from several sides.
  • Leaving it beside rather than on the final pedestal.

How to recover

  1. 1.Stop kicking while the block is near an edge.
  2. 2.Walk behind it and square the next target.
  3. 3.Use the nearest stable tier as the restart line.
  4. 4.At the top, nudge gently and wait for confirmation.
