It seem I'm silly but I can't understand what I must to do for solving this room. I can open all the gates but not the last. Please help me.:~(

...I don't understand too the indication about the coordinates in the others solutions. What is the point of reference? the last square on the left? the last in the bottom? :huh

This room might be trickier than you think, then! The last pressure plate can only be activated by a living giant. You can't split it into golems until the end.

Some tips about the game in general:
* Left click on pressure plates to see which doors they operate.
* Right click on any square in the room to see its (x,y) coordinates, as well as the name of the game element there, and its movement order.

Just a moment, I arrive until the end with the golem, but I'm not able to put him in the corner.

I just can't do it...

I managed to press all the pressure plates but I can't get the giant to the arrow in the corridor on the right.

I tried going up from the bottom right corner, with the giant follow me, but I can't get it to go right.

I tried coming from the left (having it follow me from the top pressure plate) but since I have to eventually move towards to bottom right corner, I can't get it to go up towards the arrows.


Can someone give me some hints?
I don't want a demo, I'd rather have a hint and figure it out myself than copy someone else's moves.

Those force arrows at the bottom of the passage are there to help you. You need to get the giant stuck on one of them while Beethro maneuvers around to the position shown in the above screenshot. That arrow is

Thanks a ton!

I hadn't noticed that you could get out of these arrows, so the only time I tried to lure it with me, I couldn't get out.
