Woolly Boy and the Circus: Walkthrough Guide

Woolly Boy and the Circus
By: COTTONGAME

Woolly Boy and the Circus is a new point-and-click adventure from COTTONGAME about a boy with a woolly face who gets captured and taken to the circus. You need to use your wits and any items you can find to help Woolly Boy escape! It can be tricky at times, so this walkthrough guide should help if you get stuck. Feel free to ask for extra help in the comments section.

Walkthrough:

Here is a video for the full game:

Note: For the maze of rooms:

Room 1: Play the cups and ball game and wherever the ball lands, that’s the door you open.

Room 2: Turn off all the lights in each room (there was a light in the room before this). If you didn’t turn off the light in the previous room, you can fail at one of the doors and you’ll start back at that room. If you do it right, you should be able to follow the light.

Room 3: Use the torch and pay attention to which door makes the smoke waft out.

Room 4: Once you have the pizza slice, go back to the start and place the pizza behind the locked door. When you’re back in Room 4, switch to the dog and have him smell for the pizza. Whichever door doesn’t have the smell is the one you should go through.

Room 5: Follow the clues. They’re based off the previous doors.

And that’s everything!

    Can you explain the safe in part one? How to interpet the parrot..my code is not the same as yours.

    1. AppUnwrapper

      I have to replay, but if I remember correctly, I just counted the quacks in each speech bubble.

  2. Gabdou

    Same trouble with the parrot, I count the quack and type the number on the safe but it doesn’t work..

    1. Gabdou

      I solved it by changing the language From French to english !

  3. Diane

    The dog is stuck and he can’t move on the screen with the magician and the teleporter.

    Why why do you always have to make it a video, I genuinely hate them. Instead of reading a single line of text you search through the video endlessly accidentally seeing all the clues you never asked for killing the game for you🤬

      I TOTALLY AGREE! APP UNWRAPPER normally types out their review. In fact, I’m shocked to see such malaise from them. Hoping they were just really busy and didn’t have the time here because this is the first example of video only from App Unwrapper that I’ve seen, tho I’ve not used them in a couple of years.

      1. Renfri

        Are you paying App Unwrapper for this service? Or are you just coming here to be entitled and demanding while providing literally nothing of value to the person making these walkthroughs? Maybe spend less time acting like an entitled a55hol3 and figure out your own way through the game if App Unwrapper is just not up to your high standard.

        1. Jennifer

          Perfect answer. I can’t believe the entitlement on display here. I have been using AppWrapper’s tips for years and occasionally contributing to Patron — which I need to do more — and I am grateful every time she helps me get past a seemingly impossible task. She owes us nothing!

    2. Renfri

      Sounds like a you problem. And you seems like a miserable entitled pr1ck.

    The dart pop puzzle is not explained at all. Can you clarify? Thank you

    1. Mel

      Once you target the worker with a dart, you can quickly sneak into the board thru the big gap in the bottom. You have to do it when the board is resetting and the tiles are spinning. In that room is a map of the 2 possible boards. Each indicates a 1-4 which is the order of the numbers in the chest code. To get those bumbers you need to pop the balloons with a dart. You don’t know which arrangement it will be, so check one tile in solution 1, keep going if it’s right or finish by popping solution 2s map. You get 4 numbers (# of dots per tile that are lit) and then remember the order from the maps in the room. Put those numbers in the right order in the chest.

    I can only find 4 bulbs! Can you give locations? I’m missing the upper left if that helps

    1. Mel

      Every room//area had one including the main spin area.

  7. Mel

    Follow the light clue answer:

    When you’re in the mazes of doors, if you turn out the lights in the rooms before that one, only one light will stay lit when you turn off that chambers light. It tells you what door to take but if you leave one light on before, it won’t show.

  8. Mel

    Further door maze puzzle info:

    The final door in the 5-door maze is given various statements- the clues change with each try but the some refer to Left and Right directions from a certain exit. This needs to be taken as if you are standing in the doorway and facing into the room. It took me ages to swap it around bc I was using my perspective (eg left of door 2 would be door 3). It also just might be a translation error, as these are not very well done in English, but this way worked for me. Also, pay attention to whether the clue is saying “to or from” a certain door meaning entering or exiting. It is quite easy to get turned around!

    The rest of the doors info:
    I still am not sure why/how the “wafting”/smell based door (room 4) is chosen but I wonder if I didn’t pick up the pizza if that would matter? That door did not seem to change during any redo so maybe it doesn’t matter and it’s just near the one guy who is talking about being hungry. I explained the follow the light clue in another comment (turn off all light switches when you can) and the fire/smoke does get sucked into one door each time if you’re near it (though the icons block the view), and whichever cup you get during the ball game is your door. So if anyone knows how to use clues for room 4 I would love to know!

  9. Cat

    I finally figured out the pizza issue! After having picked up the pizza slice in room 2, you’ll need to get sent back to starting point, there you leave the pizza slice by the locked door before you go through the other. (Remember to also turn off the light). Then when you get to room 4, switch avatar, and the dog will be able to smell the pizza through one of the doors.

  10. Cat

    Sorry, I meant the dog will be able to smell the pizza through 3 of the doors (which all lead back to starting point). You then choose the door without pizza smell.

  11. Geo

    Is there any skip code for the video shootout game? It is awful and slow and loud and just too hard!

  12. Margie

    I can’t find all the heads in the puppet part. I’m missing one. Would appreciate help if possible.
    Thanks
    Margie

      On the dump to the far left, there are two different tiers where you can walk. Make sure you check both “up” and “down.” There is also a chicken head in the puppet master’s house, and I think the last head (before you leave the area) is outside his house and to the right.

  13. Darren

    Stuck in the monsters belly. Is there an order to sprinkle the pepper sauce?

    1. Cystematichaos

      The pepper sauce only goes on the red one, you have to find other items for the other taste buds. For example, green gets a lime.

      1. Darren

        Big thanks!

  14. Blondieee

    Ich hab Probleme mit dem Affenzimmer des Spielplatzes. Ich hab dem linken schon die Schleuder gegeben, aber keine Möglichkeit mehr, ihm die Murmel zu reichen?

    1. Blondieee

      Hat sich erledigt, habe meinen Fehler gefunden

    I just got this game on steam and I can’t get past the rings of fire cause every click with the mouse is seen as a long one.
