Grab and Swing | Da Vinci's Hideout LittleBigPlanet 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Collectibles: 43 items

You will get the chance to play with new features on this level - you can get the first item by placing a sponge below it and jumping from it. [1] Repeat the manoeuvre a bit further - this time using a sponge and a cart. [2]

In the next section you need to grab one of the boxes from the tower and this way drop down the bubble. [1] Use the sponges to move on. The next item can be obtained by jumping off the ledge (it's right above it). [2]

Behind the stairs made of books, use the cart to gain the item and move on. [1] You will reach an even bigger object on tires - Da Vinci is sitting on it. You need to pull the "vehicle" towards the slope on the right and once it's right beside it, jump onto it and hold onto the left side. You will get the item below only if you're at the highest spot. [2]

Below, don't go right but turn back and head left - once by the ramp, you will see a path leading down. [1] Take it to the secret part of the level - use the sponges to get higher and collect the items hidden in the tubes above the launch pads. [2]

Now you can continue your moving right - you will reach a pit, with a sponge above. Jump down to collect the item - a launch pad will appear. [1] Jump off it and grab the sponge - swing on it and jump further. The next pit has three hanging sponges - swing on it and jump from one onto the other to collect the key (it unlocks a bonus level). [2] Don't continue to the right, instead fall down.

Below the three sponges on the right there's an item - take it [1] and move on to the right. [2] This way you will reach a secret spot with more bubbles. You can go back following the previous path or by using the launch pad on the wall.

You can continue moving on - jump between the three sponges which led you to the key. Jump down from the books - don't go the level link just yet, instead go behind the books and collect the bubble. [2]

After collecting the secret bubble go into the level link. [1] You will wake up in... well, not the best of places. Jump down from the toilet and go towards the background on the right. Behind the fragment of a wall there's a button which will open the door. [2]

Move on and Da Vinci will give you a grappling hook. [1] Return to the toiler - use the grappling hook to "flush the water" (the switch by the container), which will give you a new item. Additionally, use the hook to grab the toilet paper to make the bubble fall down. [2]

Having those items, you can move on. You will reach more bubbles hanging from the ceiling - swing on them and collect the items. [1] Also don't forget about the bubbles below. [2] Get through the next sets of obstacles in a similar way.

A bit further you will have to climb up the rope - don't forget about the bubble on the left. [1] By the next sponge, you have to do the opposite - go down the rope. [2]

After getting to the lowest platform, go to the furthest layer and move left - here you will find a secret passage and a bubble with glasses (hidden behind the books) - needed to activate the image on the first level. [1] Once you jump even lower - onto the starting gate level - collect the two bubbles below the platform on the left. [2]

Time to participate in a race - if you're playing for the first time and want to collect all the items, you should ignore trying to get the highest score and instead focus on collecting he bubbles. In the first part of the track, swing above the electrified ground - the bubble is in the middle [1] Further, pull up with the hook and use the launch pad. [2]

Here, on the high platform, there are three items - in order to reach them, grab the sponge and lower yourself onto the launch pads on the wall. [1] Launch yourself and quickly let go of R1 - your sackboy will let go of the rope and fly up. [2]

A bit further you will reach a rotating wheel - high above it there's an item bubble. [1] In order to get it, you need to grab the wheel with the hook and let go when your sackboy is on the left side - you should then fly up. [2] After collecting the item, go through the gate/flags, collecting the last bubbles on your way.
