Go With the Flow was discussed briefly in a few threads back in early october.
here is my tips on it:
"Go with the flow is a version of "Pipe Dream" , all the older gammers like myself know this game too well. the trick to getting all the coco prizes is to build the largest pipe that you can on the early levels. since it will get harder as you advance. By makeing pipes over 30 pieces each level you should be able to get 3000 point before level 10. "

I am not a big fan of this mini-game, but that is mostly because it gives you levels that are imposible to solve and you cannot even get a single point from trying to solve it.

other tips, use the 4-way and three way pipes, as much as posible since they give more points.

use the cork to seal up the loose ends and you can go back and add a pipe to that cork later.

When the board just starts focus on getting a few wide pipes onto the reservour. these are the pipes that take longer to fill, and give you more time to get the rest of the path layed out.

If you do not get the pipe you want then through the pipe either where you think you may need it or just out of the way. DO NOT put the pipe on top of another pipe unless you have to because it takes a lot of time to replace a pipe and it is quick to just drop it.

Practice filling the Maps on the first few levels. this will reach the High score the fastest and easiest.

hold the button down to make the water flow faster.

try to plan pipe paths based on the pipes comming up, and try to route loops to fill the loose ends of the three way pipes, remember you can always replace it with a four way pipe later.

THe freeze power up was not very usefull.

IT takes time to Rotate a pipe, switch a pipe, or wait for the pipe you need on the multi-pipe, so decide if it is worth the wait.
