Hmm. We could re-feature this room in a future hold (along with some others ... possibly with some slight modifications) and enforce this challenge using the new floor tile that doesn\'t allow you to move diagonally.

A floor tile that doesn\'t let you move diagonally? That sounds very interesting...can you put in sections of it or does it have to cover the whole room?

Wherever you want! (This gives the most puzzle potential.)

This is more a point of order, but in the new KDD, there's a secret room that enforces no diagonal movement, and the scroll suggests that completing it is the same as fulfilling this challenge. However, its not really the same since the floor tiles restrict the movement for the roaches as well.

Yeah, that was pointed out elsewhere. The scroll should have said that it was inspired by this challenge, not that it was this one exactly. Sorry about that!

Game on,

The funny thing is, that when I did the orthogonal tile version of the challenge it was very hard. When I tried the original challenge I was expecting something even harder. I then beat the original challenge very quickly and easily.

The orthogonal tiles makes the challenge more difficult because the roaches take longer to get to you.
