In this entry, we start Episode Two, and the maze-like paths of the first level bring this off to a slow start.
On an outer arm of the Milky Way Galaxy, the planet Glixer II glints purpley in its orbit like a tiny galactic eggplant...
In the Grand Hall of Glixer, the Glixerian Commander sits in eggplanty gloom, attended by one of is captains.
"Captain Escargoto, the pet Gruzzles have become a tentacle-witling bore. How goes the plan to import new pets from Earth?"
"I will send Zorja and Grizz to report, Your Slimyness!"
"Have the Human creasures we chose to honor as our pets yet submitted to their good fortune?"
"No, revered Scum Master, they do not seem overjoyed at their good fortune."
"Have you succeeded in stealing the Humans' numbers and rendering their technology inaccessible to them?"
"We had some problems, Your Scumliness. But we will get right back and try again!"
Back on Planet Earth, you settle down to watch TV when you realize that you can't change the channels.
The number stealers are at it again!
Level 1: Follow the Gruzzles Into Space
From Episode 2 onwards, multiplication and division problems will start showing up. The division word problems will usually mention a large number of something, then list how many of that item are in a container (Glixerians in a UFO, marshmallows in a bag, etc.), which makes them easier to identify. As for the multiplication word problems, they'll usually list how many of an object exist, then list how many people or things interact with that items (i.e., there are 4 theaters, and 6 Gruzzles go to each one). Some of them also mention something being done a certain number of things being done a certain amount of times a day for a certain amount of weeks.
This level is very maze-like, and the Gruzzles are positioned in areas that make it a little harder to get around. Thankfully, all you have to do to find all the secret ares is to touch all the warps.
