Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After saving Charlie, return to Mother Megg’s Buttery Goods and slap Ronny to earn the 'Sick as a Fig' achievement.
  2. 2
    Jump down the hole Charlie made. As you navigate the pipes, break the Commemorative plate by passing under it four times.
  3. 3
    You'll arrive at Marge’s Chippie. Jasper needs his spanner, screwdriver, and hammer to fix the fryer.
  4. 4
    Jasper's Spanner:
  5. 5
    Head to the fishmonger, Bish. Before that, collect the three singing mice (2/3) behind Mother Megg's and hit the postbox (3/6) in the parking lot.
  6. 6
    Go to Price Shaggers and knock everything off the shelves to get the 'A Fine Mess' achievement (this is your only chance).
  7. 7
    Navigate Bumberly Cl: climb boxes, trash cans, a ladder, and a pole to reach the roof.
  8. 8
    Enter the first chimney, get pushed into a house, spread soot, and exit through the window.
  9. 9
    In the garden, fix the water hose for the gardener by following it to a well. Jump down and slap the right wall to reveal a tunnel.
  10. 10
    Follow the hose through the tunnel, up boxes, and through the ceiling to the fishmonger's shop.
  11. 11
    Turn on the sink to fill the hose. Then, enter the fish display and slap each fish until cigarettes appear to earn the 'Done up like a Kipper' achievement. The spanner is in the second fish on the bottom row.
  12. 12
    Go to Sam's Ham shop. Enter the meat grinder to reach a new area.
  13. 13
    Explore this area: head left to the trash, then along houses to a postbox (4/6).
  14. 14
    Go down and left to the van food stall. Slap the owner to close the shutters for the 'Cheek to Cheek' achievement (1/3). Repeat this whenever the stall is open.
  15. 15
    Head up to Rog's Veg Hole and hit the trash bags and trash can to find the last singing mice (3/3), unlocking 'The Rat Pack' achievement.
  16. 16
    Go to Big Ron's Big Pies. Next to the Oily Baps cart is a postbox (5/6).
  17. 17
    Return to Ron's. Since there's no meat, go to Sam's Ham the long way around due to blocked roads.
  18. 18
    In the garden, turn on the water to grow a tomato. Charlie will appear and leave through a fence hole; follow him to the river bank.
  19. 19
    Cross the river bank to a roof. Jump on the cracked area of the roof to make a hole. Interact with the tree to talk to an owl (part of 'Friend of the Forest').
  20. 20
    Head towards the two houses. Between them is a postbox (6/6), completing the 'No Post on Thuesdays' achievement.
  21. 21
    Open the white door to the right, go through, climb the ladder, and clean the gutters by jumping on the gunk. You'll go through a pipe back to the first area.
  22. 22
    Before returning to Marge's Chippie, visit Thumbitt Inn and hit the police box.

    Go to Price Shaggers. Climb the shelves and push down the rat poison to deal with mice and knock down a ceiling panel.
  25. 25
    Go through the panel. Head left to a mouse guarding a door. Jump across the hole and right, climbing boxes.
  26. 26
    Slap the cardboard wall to open a new room. Push the ball of cheese left to distract the mouse.
  27. 27
    Go through the door into the mouse version of Price Shaggers. Get behind the till and break through the floor.
