Hi, I can make it into where you strike the orb that opens and closes opposite doors, but then the snake goes straight up and around and doesn't land on any pressure plates, and if I step off the one I'm on it releases the ball, I'm sure I've missed something, Help!

Hi, I'll post a picture here to help anyone who's also stuck here. This room is tricky.



Where are you having problems?

Sorry it took so long to get back to you - we were camping, anyway I can make it to #11 and then the snake hugs the forest and goes straight up, over and down the other side and comes to kill me, without hitting any pressure plates, if I step off of #11 it releases the balls at the bottom.

Hum.. You know, if you release the ball, you won't be able to finish this room. So the first hint: Always have an orange PP covered.

I've got a more basic problem. I can't get past the first part of this room. In trying to strike the orb at 1, either the snake traps me in the room or I cant get back to the buttons at 3 or 4 in time.
I don't see a strategy that would allow me to strike the orb at 1 and still keep the orange button covered.

You can solve this first part with a few tries. Sorry, I can't help you right now, because I don't have WQ installed here.







Hope this can be helpful. Post again if you need more detailed Help.

There's a special trick when dealing with yellow and red snakes:



The white dots shows possible player's moves and the red dots indicates the snake's reaction. It tends to maintain it's current direction. Once you master it, handling several snakes becomes far easier, very predictable. (Doesn't work with green snakes).

Thanks for the help. I finally figured out how to keep the snake around the buttons long enough to get the job done.
