Objective
To keep the cement barrels from overflowing and falling down onto the people onthe ground. This is done by pulling the levers and dropping them from the topbarrel down into the bottom barrel then into the cement truck. You must alsokeep yourself alive, by making sure you don't move into open air or get jammedbetween an elevator and the ground or ceiling.

Gameplay
This is the most complex of the mini-games. The idea is to let the cement fall from the top tanks, down to the lower tanks then down into the trucks, without any of the four tanks overflowing at any time. This can be very hectic, especially trying to move between tanks, where the elevator systems can be very erratic. You appear next to the top left tank at the start. Cement alternates in falling from the left and right conveyor belts at the top. To drop cement from a tank to the tank or truck below, you must move up to the side of it and press 'A' to pull the lever. One lever pull will drop one part of cement to the tank below.The left set of elevators in the centre of the building move down and the right set of elevators move up. Use these to move between the top/bottom and right/left parts of the building. If any tank overflows, it counts as a mistake. If you get caught between an elevator and the floor or ceiling of the building, it counts as a mistake. Moving into open space and falling down to the elevator below also counts as a mistake. You receive one point for each part of cement that is moved from the top tank to the bottom tank on either side. You receive two points for each part of cement that is moved from the bottom tank to the truck on either side.
Hints & Tips
- Obviously you need to take care of four different tanks simultaneously. To manage all these, you need to go between all four, making sure none of them overflow. It is best to go in a counter-clockwise pattern. Move all cement from the top right tank to the bottom right tank, move across elevator from the top right to top left, empty the top left tank into the bottom left tank. Use the left side of the elevator to drop down to the bottom level and empty the bottom left tank into the truck. Run from the bottom left to bottom right and empty the bottom right tank there. Then simply repeat. It is better than moving clockwise, because when you need to move up and down, then you'll be moving needlessly across an elevator that will try and take you in the wrong direction, something you don't really want.
- Try your best not to break the cycle, but if you must (a tank is going to overflow otherwise), make sure you're as quick as you can be. Don't rush though, as rushing leads to mistakes.
- If you get stuck in a crevice just before the top or bottom of the elevator and you're about to get crushed between the elevator and floor/ceiling, you need to be patient and allow two elevators to line up, then run straight to the one on the far side.
- Don't rush when using the elevators. They can disappear very suddenly. Instead, be patient. Although you might take a bit longer, you're going to be much less likely to make a mistake. You should still be able to keep up a sustainable pace anyway, so don't worry too much.
