Um... Lot's of help here. Mainly for most of the level too!

I've already completed the rock golemns rooms. As well as the seep and both the snake rooms.

I would mainly need help with the eye room, this room, and some others.


P.S. I just solved the hot tile with queen roaches room!

That evil eye room, in which you have to get the evil eyes to do what you want to kill the other ones. The one with the serpent and the rock golemns, and finally, well, that's about it. The other ones I solved.

I ignored the slayer and he died.
But I can't kill more than one roach queen.

Try turning your sword towards the next queen while you're still on the "safe" part of the floor when you kill a queen, then run towards it.

If there are roaches coming at you step sideways to take care of them.

And, of course, don't turn your sword, wait or bump into something - if you do, make use of your undo key...

Well, I did this part of room after a few tries. First, I think you should reach queen before she create spawn. Second, you certainly shouldn't retreat to non-hot tile floor, so you must train and kill roaches without turning your sword.

I know it all. By the way, three roach queens are dead already.

Well, I've been working on this level for a bit...
I'm stuck. (see screenshot).
Which roach queen should I go for next, and how should I go about not dying in the process?

EDIT: Please ignore the fact that I'm on an arrow and trapped, and assume I restarted and got there without being on an arrow.

Is there any script/dialogue reward to letting the "slayer" live until all the queens are dead? Because I'm two queens away from doing so but I don't know if I'll be disappointed :<

No, there isn't.

Well, the Slayer’s movement rules are pretty complex. However,

×if you let him get close to you, you can move back and forth and sometimes he will back away. You may even be able to get him to step on an arrow this way.

Yeah, i know about Slayer movements, but hot tiles and constant roaches respawning keeps me away from exploiting this trick.
Anyway, i completed this challenge in traditional way
