How do you finish this room? I assume you have to let the vines get on to the bridge to keep it from collapsing. The eye can easily kill the globlin. Maybe I need to keep the character with the sword from moving onto the trap door? All in all I'm sure the answer is simple, but not obvious to this slow minded senior.

Thanks for any help

Beethro will drop the bridge (and thus the goblin) for you if you get close enough. The briars really don't do anything. There's no need to kill Beethro himself.

The next room is to the left, not up.

I am still confused. I can't go left. The eye won't go into another room or end the level when I try to go left. I did think I had to go up. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Yes, you can. Go west along the long path between the briars. To here:

Thanks for your reply CSR. I can go to that spot and then nothing happens. I can't go farther west. I can stay there until the briar kills me. It doesn't matter if I drop the bridge or not. Nothing else happens in that position. I wonder if this is a software problem like I had in the past that you found. I am using the mac version 3.2.0.81. Maybe this is a glitch.

Thanks.

Mac versions older than 3.2.0.83 do have some bug with NPCs, it'd be best to upgrade.

Jeffrey0 is correct. In 3.2.0.81, the briar is killing the NPC that is supposed to take you to the next level. You do need to upgrade.

I just upgraded to .83 and I was able to move to the next level. Thanks for all your help. I just couldn't understand what I was doing wrong. It was very frustrating.


Thanks again .
