Big Walk: The Balloon Carry Case — How to Carry Two Blobs, Gourds or Beans
What the floating balloon in Big Walk marks and how the case underneath it works: pick it up, seat two red blobs, gourds or beans in it, and mount it on a backpack so one player hauls two items at once, plus the two things the source tried that do nothing.

Big Walk: Inside the Black Sphere (Beyond the Wall) — Final Puzzles & Main Ending

Split the lights from the buttons, hand the tomato timer across the yellow doors, pull the two facing levers, kick the red teapot to point at the wall button, answer yes/no at the window while your partner holds the symbol panels, then use body language and old props in the white room to roll the credits and end the main story.
