Jigland by Rob Allen
t
Rob Allen is back with another banner game for you to enjoy. This one we're titling "Jigland" and it's similar to the others we have featured. If you've played our previous banner games you'll know that it includes a variety of puzzles and mini-games to complete all the letters of the Casual Gameplay logo. The game is located right within the banner at the top of every page of this site, when the appropriate stylesheet is activated.
Just click on it to load the game and play.
We'll have a walkthrough published here for it soon, but do yourself a favor and puzzle through it at your leisure, you'll be glad you did. It's not going anywhere, so take your time with it, and most of all, have fun! :)
You can visit his site at foon.co.uk.
Thanks, Rob!

Jigland Walkthrough
C
Walk the guy to the bridge.
Open the bridge when he's standing on it.
Play the surfing mini-game (see detailed notes below).
A
Plant a purple seed in the dirt patch on the left.
Create a cloud from the house.
Use the windmill to move the cloud over the seed and water it by clicking the cloud.
It will grow into a yellow seed. Put this in the dirt patch on the right.
Put any seed that isn't red on the left.
Lower the bridge and click the monster eyes to send it out.
Click the newly revealed button.
Walk the guy to the star.
Roll through the maze - there's a few different paths, but you're aiming to land in the green slime. Any way that doesn't drop you in lava will get you there.
You'll be teleported back to the start once you reach the green slime.
There's nothing else in the maze despite a few different paths through it.
S
Walk the guy right to the river, before the bridge, where you can see a ripple in the water.
Click the ripple.
Balloons will start to fly up. Each time, click only the one with no match; e.g., if one purple, two greens and three yellows fly up, click the purple.
Balloons can appear on any part of the screen, even in the background, so pay attention!
The letter will be given if you complete the sequence.
U
Note the order of the lights on the tower (see A in plAy).
The colored items are the yellow torch, the house explosion, the green torch, and the exploding monster (feed it the red plant).
Click them in the order the tower lights play.
A
Remove the top left plants, then fly the bird right.
Wait for the plants to regrow, then click the bird to fly right again.
As he flies over the house, click the window to explode him.
L
Make a cloud by clicking the top left of the house.
Drag the windmill to blow the cloud left, over the reservoir (but not too far! or else the cloud will disappear).
Make it rain.
G
Walk the guy to the bridge.
Open the bridge when he's standing on it.
Play the surfing mini game (see detailed notes below).
A
Put the bridge up.
Plant a red berry in the ground left of the bridge, and any color in the right hand dirt patch.
Click the monster's eyes under the trees.
M
A birdcage appears if you reload the game after collecting a few letters.
Use the windmill to blow the cage around until it drops.
Fly the bird to the nest.
Fly the left hand bird to join it (remove the plants first).
E
Drop a few seeds into the balloon door.
P
Right click and select the second option (Windows/Mac). Linux users should get a little number puzzle instead of the J-I-G phrases that Windows/Mac users see.
You are in a maze! Direct your movements with the mouse: Right of center (of the banner) rotates your view to the right, left of center rotates your view to the left. Above center moves you forward; below center moves you backwards.
Move your mouse (slowly!) from center to move about the maze in a controlled manner.

Video of it being solved
L
Click and drag the windmill to the tower on the right.
Hold it just left of the banner until it blows away.
A
Plant a non-red berry in the left dirt patch, and a red one on the right, then click the monster's eyes under the trees.
He will explode and reveal a letter.
Y
Use the berries from the tree (drag and drop) to block the lower waterfall.
Surfing Mini-game / Underground Maze 1
Walk the guy to the bridge.
Click the bridge as he's walking on it, so he falls in the river.
Surf's up! Click to jump over the spiky objects.
Click to jump when the grey object appears, timing it so you land on it - it's a boat.
In the boat, click to jump over obstacles again as you head right.
Jump and land in the tunnel when it appears.
Explore the underground maze on your boat until you find both letters.
Bumping into a wall will turn your guy around, rather than restarting the maze.
If you accidentally exit the maze early, jumping into the river again takes you to the maze entry point, not the surfing game.
Thanks to Ben for the walkthrough!
