Yes I realise that, but how do I get into 2N? I can't find any access to it other than from 1N and that way is blocked by the blue door. :?

Is it that? Maybe 2N is set as required... let me check.

No, it's not set as required. Have you cleared every room?

Did Exit Level! appear?

- as far as I can tell. I have cleared all the rooms I have found, (and I have searched for secret rooms) except 1N. I gave a list in my post above.

Did Exit Level! appear?

- no it didn't, but as I haven 't cleared 1N, for the reasons given above, I didn't expect it to.

It's not supposed to be required. It's a big bug. You can use the warper if you're too stuck, or redo the level.

I started playing this hold today and was enjoying it until I reached level 4, 1E. Not only is the room boring, but I've made a silly mistake 5 times now, and had to restart the room. I suppose the solution is to not make silly mistakes, but mud - or tar - over trapdoors is just crying out for some checkpoints.

Well, I'm sorry to say I finally gave up. I managed 1E, but 2E has got me beat. I can't find enough moves to cut the tar just before the bomb goes off. It's maybe just inefficiency on my part, or maybe I am going about it the wrong way, but I've better things to do than restart the same room over and over and over, like take a shower and go to the pub. :D

On L4 and I have the same problem as bandit: 1E needs checkpoints, but you've already said you will do that.

I'm now stuck however, because (I think) I made the mistake of going from 1E to 1N with my sword pointing W and so don't have enough moves before the odd mimic guy blocks my way. I can't back out of the room to change sword direction, because of the force arrows and if I restore to the previous room, I will have to cut my way through all that mud again and I'm afraid I just don't want to do that. I'll wait until you do the checkpoints, but PLEASE put one just on the way out of 1E ?

Elfstone.

A small warning:

This hold won't be very easy, so be careful if you want to select this as your first hold or if you haven't completed anything major. It is pretty hard and needs to take a while. Just to warn begginers.

The force arrows at the entrance to rooms in level four are nothing but an annoyance, as all they do is force the player to restore if he steps into the room with his sword pointing the wrong way. In fact, I'm going to be controversial and say that force arrows shouldn't be allowed at the entrance to *any* room. Even the ones on level 25 of KDD were a nuisance. Umm.. so there!:D

Level 4 1N1E. I think you need to make the player do a bit more work. After clearing the tar, even being inefficient, you are waiting at least 50 moves before the yellow door opens.

2S2E. I killed the roaches but couldn't reach the door before the mimic struck the orb.

Level 5 1N1W, a checkpoint or two wouldn't go amiss in this one, for me anyway. I like it, though I haven't beaten it yet. (I have now)

edit:

Level 5 1S1W (great room btw) If you complete the room and exit north, you can't reach 1S.

The blue door hasn't dropped. Is 1E or whatever is beyond there marked as required?

It makes it much easier to test and report problems if the hold is anyone edit.

Level 6, 3N1E. Your automatic bomb exploding tuition mechanism doesn't work. I think it's a dud.

The stairs in Land's End say you have access to level 7, but take you back to level 6, 2N1E.

It's been a great and entertaining hold until level 7, 1E. Having to clear the tar and leave the mother alive to make sure you can destroy it all, whilst avoiding a goblin, is difficult. Making the player do it four times is bordering on ridiculous. Actually, you can kill the goblin on the last pass through, making it easier, but I gave up before that.

Ok, i'll sort this.


But the stairs thing on Land's End is supposed. Land's end is on seventh level, so it leads to sixth level, making you able to go to seventh level...

But doesn't that mean you have to go through half of level six again, only to have the stairs take you to Land's End, thereby putting you in a loop? Either way, I can't get the goblin around the south east corner without getting killed. Maybe I should wait until you make it so level 6 can be completed so i don't have to use the warp level.

I mean the second set of stairs. When you get thru the blue door, the stairs there leads to level 7.

But as I said earlier, you can't get through 3N1E because the bomb doesn't go off, meaning you can't complete enough of the level for the blue door to open.

NEW VERSION!

Level 9 and 10 finished, after some working.

One room isn't required in level 9, as i haven't tested it as i haven't solved it yet.

Changed 1E, the dreaded room, because it apparently needs some working. But you can look at it and comment. ;)

(Yawn... gotta go sleep.)

Level 6, 3N1E. The bomb still won't go off.
Lands End, 1W. It's no longer possible to start cutting the mud with the mimic. In fact, I'm not sure it's possible to hit the orb and still clear the babies that form, but as the hold is not anyone edit, it's not possible to try.

Why do you ask others to make their holds anyone edit when you don't do the same?

Is there a warper at the start of the hold? If yes, then use it to play other levels. But thanks for mentioning. Also, in Land's End: 1W, use the detonator, then put the mimic.

It's very weird. It blows up in my version. :?

The warper won't let me check what is wrong. I want to be able to play the rooms, not be able to skip them.

Edit: The detonator works in lands end but not in level 6.
