Switcheroo! is the fifth level in Robot City. Switchers are introduced here, and Stinky must use them to direct Wooden Boxes into water to build a bridge to the Rainbow Gate.

A bracket before each step denotes the room that Stinky will be in at the start of the step, whether that be northwest (NW), southwest (SW), west (W), northeast (NE), southeast (SE) or east (E), assuming north is upwards.

The upper and lower switches can only be reached from the middle switch; this effectively dictates that moving onto the middle switch would cycle between NE, SE, NW and SW rooms.

  1. (W) Go right, collect the coin and move onto the conveyor.
  2. (NE) Ignore the box here. Step onto the conveyor leading down.
  3. (SE) Push the box near you upwards onto the conveyor (it will fill a tile of water), then step onto the same conveyor yourself.
  4. (NW) Go to [W], move onto the middle conveyor again.
  5. (SW) Push the box near you to the [W] room, then right onto the conveyor. It should end up in the [NE] room. Now walk to the [NW] room.
  6. (NW) Push the box in this room to the [W] room, then right onto the conveyor. It should end up in the [SE] room.
  7. (W) Move onto the middle conveyor three times.
  8. (NE) There are two boxes here; push one of them down onto the conveyor, then step onto the same conveyor yourself.
  9. (SE) *Ignore the box here; step onto the conveyor leading up, push the second box into the water, then return left.
  10. (NW) Go to [W], move onto the middle conveyor two times.
  11. (NE) Push the box down onto the conveyor, then step onto the same conveyor yourself.
  12. (SE) *Ignore the box here; step onto the conveyor leading up, push the third box into the water, then return left.
  13. (NW) Go to [W], move onto the middle conveyor two times.
  14. (NE) Step onto the conveyor leading down, then return left.
  15. (SE) Push the box up onto the conveyor, then step onto the same conveyor yourself.
  16. (NW) Go to [W], move onto the middle conveyor two times.
  17. (NE) Step onto the conveyor leading down. Complete the bridge, collect the bonus coin and exit.


Note that (*) here is due to a bug in Stinky and Loof in Wonderland that destroys a box at the end of the switch if another box is moved onto it. This doesn't occur on RTWD, so a slightly faster solution may be taken as follows:

  1. (SE) Push the box here onto the conveyor leading up: it will squeeze the second box into the water. Step onto the conveyor.
  2. (NW) Go to [W], move onto the middle conveyor two times.
  3. (NE) Ignore the box here; step onto the conveyor leading down, push the third box into the water, then return left.
  4. (SE) Step onto the conveyor leading up. Return left.
  5. (NW) Go to [W], move onto the middle conveyor two times.
  6. (NE) Push the box down onto the conveyor, then step onto the same conveyor yourself.
  7. (SE) Step onto the conveyor leading up. Complete the bridge, collect the bonus coin and exit.
