Mayabe I am the only dumbass around here as usual but this seems like a very tricky room. I think the only possibility to do it would be driving the goblin outside and locking myself in by removing the trapdoors. From the inside then I can by goblin manipulation working close to the roaches move one roach up without it being stuck however the roach the other side is stuck, which leaves me stuck too... :no I guess the strategy should be different, but as usual I do not seem to be able to find it, a hint in the right direction is what I seek ....

You're on the right track.

You must alternate moving the west and east roaches though.

Well I kind of figured that out, however I still get stuck just about the middle of the way when there are two 'notches' just exactly at the same level and when i reach there for the first time and I have only one goblin that means the roach on the opposite end gets stuck (if it was not already stuck before). Any more pointers?

It's true that the notches are at the same vertical level, but the room itself is not symmetrical.

There's a way to take advantage of that.

Well it still seems impossible to me so I'll attach a picture to be more explicit. I can get the roaches as far as 1 and 2 in the picture. I am inside with the trapdoors closed (or I wouldn't have been able to move the roaches) the goblin is outside and I can manipulate the goblin at will , however when I reach the vertical level of the 3,4 notches I am stuck, and cannot for the life of me see how any assymetry can help me. If you can please post more spoilerish hints or even a demo I'll be gratefull...

The trick is:

A roach "stuck" in 3 is not really stuck!

Hello
I was easy enough to drive the roaches to snakes, but that's to drive a goblin to the top of the snake does not work - it gets stuck on the forcearrow (both left and right).

or a solution so simple that I do not see it?

any help, please
