Bomb Bounce (Bouncing Bombs in the UK version) is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Last Specter.

Puzzle

You plan is to drop a bomb from the top of a ladder and use some trampolines to bounce it over to your partner.

Arrange your trampolines carefully so that the bomb doesn't hit any walls as it bounces over to your partner. Also, the bomb needs to land right in the center of is glove or won't catch it.

Place trampolines on the grid by drawing lines with your stylus. You have a limited amount of trampoline material available, so keep an eye on how much you use.

The bomb travels faster the farther it falls. If it's moving too fast, your partner won't be able to catch it.

Keep this in mind, and give it another shot! What's the worst the can happen? Well, besides the bomb exploding, or course...

Out of the five vertical walls, try bouncing the bomb over the third wall from the right (the one in the middle).

If you can manage that, you should be able to get the bomb to your partner using only two trampolines.

Place a trampoline somewhere between the sixth and seventh rungs of the ladder (counting from the bottom), and make it slant down to the right.

Now watch where the bomb lands after the first bounce off this trampoline, and place your second trampoline in that spot. That should do the trick!

The bomb needs to land right in the middle of your partner's glove in order for him to make the catch.

So the second trampoline needs to be in just the right spot. Start it directly above the L-shaped wall, and make it slant down to the right.

This ought to do it!

Solution

Correct

Bombastic!

You bounced the bomb over to your partner without it exploding. Nice!
