Re: Beethro's Mission: Spiders (0)

I have a question, about locations of secret rooms . . . I'm missing one each on level 5 and 6, but I'm thinking a little more poking around will see me through . . . my immediate problem is on levels 2 and 3, where I've been all over, and no secret rooms to be found anywhere. There was a promising crumbly wall in L2, 2S, but it turned out to go nowhere, haha.

I'm starting to think there's a series of stairs accessibly only from someplace I haven't been yet. Where should I turn my attention?

Thanks -

You don't need to find any special stairs -- all secret rooms on each level are accessible from the main part of that level.

On the second level:

The room fills in a fairly obvious gap in the minimap.

I'd actually cast my eye on both these locations, but since none of the rooms around those spots have crumbly walls (that I can find, anyway) I figured I was on the wrong path.

Even if I can find my way in to the second level room you noted, there's still one other . . . and I probed as much of the perimeter of this level already as I could find.

Thanks for your help anyway -

Thanks. I swear these purple rooms are the worst for finding crumbly walls.

Here's how ignorant I am. Even when presented with this direct hint, I still can't find the way.

×I can get into 1N2E, which is the exit room. I can't get into 1N3E from either 1N2E or 3E. I'm guessing 1N3E is the secret room . . .

Whoops...that's my fault.

Should read as follows (I will correct it above as well):

Transpositions. Bad.

Sorry.

Could I trouble an admin to please edit the confusing red text out of the first message in this thread? The hold attached to the first message is the most recent one.

Re: Beethro's Mission: Spiders (+1)

Well, I just post-mastered this hold, and I enjoyed it alot!

I hope you're still around Dali, I'd love to see what you could do with TCB elements.

Re: Beethro's Mission: Spiders (+1)

I really enjoyed this hold. There are plenty of rooms here that I loved the lynchpins and tricks to, too many to list and remember. Also, a lot of variety, with each level focusing on a different element.

I think the architect has somewhat of a unique style. Rooms look fairly open-ended, requiring you to decide which part of the room you should do next. Often, very exotic and interesting move sequences are required to complete certain parts of the rooms.

There was lots to love here, and very, very little to not. Definitely recommend it.
