Yup! Britta is right! The trick is IGNORE the stupid otter thingies completely & don't worry about the X's. Work your way downward ASAP - ideally by smashing jars, etc. As the game moves down, it "pops" the X's off automatically. It's still tricky to get to the bottom & finish ... But you'll NEVER get there if you're concentrating on plastic bags & feeding critters on the sides - that's a ruse!
