Sorry for asking about two rooms at once, but I really can't figure this one out either. After playing it for an hour or two, this is what I think I need to do.

I'm stuck, sorta, in the same part.

I assume that were I to be super-duper efficient, I could control the tar babies while dispatching the tar mother, but an inaccessible snake is something else again. Am I going way down the wrong path?

Thanks -

Yeah, this is a real brain sprainer. My entire strategy changed quite a bit when I realized there's only one way to get the rattlesnake through the maze:

I did, actually, get the rattlesnake all the way through the maze.

If I'm still stuck in a few days, I may need to post a demo of my dilemma. I'm not being particularly articulate here.

My solution is almost four times as long as the best one, but what I did was

Then I was able to clear out the tar mother, approaching from the north.

I'm not sure why that rattler is not behaving. He should come right in after you once you clear the mother and drop the trapdoors.

Got it . . . thanks for the confirmation I was on the right track.

The snake wouldn't come to me at first because - duh - I'd not yet removed all the tar.

What's the well know trick to stop further babies spawning at 3? I don't know it and am desperately running from top to bottom trying to clear all spare tar and babies with no success. I'm beginning to get really fed up. Please help. :~(
