Obviously, I need to be able to get to that middle area with the dirt door down.

Which basically means this level is impossible. Where is the flaw in my logic?

I got stuck in this one for awhile too. I just stared at it for a very long time and finally made out a trace. Basically, I backtracked from the end.

To hit the orb, the green door has to be down. So where did he come from? Can you come from the 3 arrow corridor? No due to the up green arrow. So Beethro must have came from the left, either through the opened white or brown door. White doesn't look promising as Beethro must have stepped on the down arrow, so it must be the brown door. etc.

The other trick - and the trick that I used - to solve stuff like this is metathinking. You should consider a few major questions:
A: What elements are there? and
B: Why were they placed there?
(Followed closely by C: Are they there to mislead me?)

What cracked this nut open for me was the white door, specifically the down white arrow beside the lower white <Edit: White, not right! Apologies!> door.

Ask yourself these questions: When and/or why would I use that? Once I go through there, what benefit should it have?

My answers to these were:


Good luck!

<Edited to fix a silly, silly typo.>

And I'm still staring at it. None of the above is making any sense, particularly the down white arrow beside the lower right position.

Which lower right position. There isn't anything at lower right

Since this is one of the more difficult necessary rooms, here's a bit more of an explicit explanation:
The room image:

I would welcome a PM or demo for this room.

Thank you for your prompt reply but I can't see the image you posted. All I see is the "Room Image Not Available" image.

This is because I have not uploaded a demo to CaravelNet for this room.

That is because I would have to have solved the room to be able to leave it and thereby save a demo.

So it seems I am stuck.

Whuh? You don't have to conquer the room, only visit it, to see the image. Try pressing F6 while in this room to tell the server you've been there...

That hasn't worked for me yet. Does it take more than a few minutes for CaravelNet to recognize that a demo was uploaded?

(Demo was made by using F5 to start and stop.)
