Ok, I'm sure I'll either bow to someone's mastrery or leave a red palm print on my forehead, but I'm stuck on Level 2, Thrice North, Twice East.

PS Many thanks for this great game!

Welcome to the forums.

Thanks, but that's a different level.

Here's the room I'm stuck in

I'm not sure this is correct, but it looks to me that if you turned that force arrow on at just the right moment...

Haaa! I got back as fast as I could, but I wasn't quick enough...

It's weird how sometimes I get stuck on these puzzles, but after a short break my mind seems to have subconciously worked out the problem.

Fun stuff!

Hi WQ fans and gamemasters !
I thought I was sure I did everything to try to run out by every possible means of this puzzle but as soon as I touch the below and leave (diagonally down then up) the roaches are JUST behind me and I'm still facing North so I can't toggle the force arrow back to white in time...

Help pleaaaaase ?

×The roach won't be able to go against the arrow once it is re-activated.

-Noah

Thanks, Noah, I promise I knew that but... to "re-activate" it I have to pass it again (coming from south) then TURN (from facing North to facing East) hit the above red ball. The trouble is that as soon as I do hit the red bowl below, the raoches rush and even as I escape they are just the cells RIGHT AFTER/AROUND. In other words, even when I pass the arrow at least two roaches pass it also before I reach the above red bowl.
Could you please be more accurate ? There *must* be something I miss here :-(

×Well, due to the relatvie locations of the arrow and orb, there shouldn't be any roaches that have gone past the arrow when you're in position to strike the orb.

And I fully agree with that ! ...but how ??
Is there a specific way to hit the below orb (facing some other direction than North than leaving diagonally twice ?) How can I create more distance with the roaches once I opened the below barrier when hitting the below orb ? Can you please at least point at the HOW ? I know the "WHAT" since long...
Thank you...

Thank you Noah, that was very friendly of yours, and it worked. Pfe www.
You actually learned me here something that I thought impossible (I even thought I tried that, out of despair, but seemingly not well enough ), as I had the feeling that my actions were not really *preceding* those of the roaches, where it here apparently does !
Thanks for your patient assistance -- you must have thought I was kinda stupid Thanks again !
