Walkthrough[]

Part One

Wait for the crow to be out of the way, then climb the staircase.
Wait for the next crow to be out of the way and step onto the platform while it passes.
When it's out of the way, make Ida step on the switch, which reveals a gear.
Flip the gear when the nearest crow is on the gray part of the platform, flipping the platform into a staircase.
Climb up the stairs.
Wait for the closest crow to be on the high platform, then go to the close-by low platform.
Twist the gear to make stairs appear.
Climb up the staircases and the ladder, then step on the switch, avoiding the crow.
Avoid the crow and climb up the ladder that just appeared. Enter the door.

Part Two

Cross the platform, then flip the gear so the second platform flips upside down.
Step on the switch.
Change the switch so the Crows go upside down one at a time, enabling Ida to climb the stairs.
Don't make Ida climb all the way. Let the crow pass the purple blocks, then spin the gear to raise a platform.
When the crow walks onto the lower part of the platform, lower it into the ground.
Enter the door.

Part Three

Avoid the crows and enter the door.

Part Four

Spin the first gear to make a longer path for the crow to walk across.
When he walks onto the second segment, spin the path back. Enter the door.
When the next crow steps onto the patterned platform, spin the next gear to make the platform vertical. Once he is on the second segment, spin it back.
Enter the door.

Part Five

Step onto the second platform.
Spin the building so three platforms line up. Step onto the third one, then spin the building to make the next two line up.
Climb up the stairs and go to the end.
Spin the building to make the platform lower. Go on it, then spin it back to make Ida rise back up.
Step onto the patterned square. Spin the building so it moves and lines up with some more.
Climb the stairs, then spin until the ladders face Ida.
Climb the ladders.
Spin the building until Ida can walk to the end of the level.
