I've come back to the forum after a couple of months and... what is this madness?

Neat little puzzle. The input method was rather annoying though, in the end I installed a keylogger and played through jatopian's cloan of it, removed the errors and c/p that. Might be interesting experimenting with things like hydrologic boots (to carry that really big sword), and thus you only have to input 6 moves at a time, and then you get another go. Of course, there are pros and cons of both, but eh.

Yeah, if you missed the revealing of the board, the game was a bit anticlimactic. While it was partially obscured still, inputting 6 moves at a time would have given out more information than I wanted to.

It's certainly not a game everyone will love, but I was surprised at how much some people DID love trying to solve it while it was still half covered.

For those who don't check the bar game regularly... this has been done. The reward is the same! I just reset it for the fun of discovering and solving a new room.

Someone has stolen two of my swords :-O that's just a wee bit mean :weep

I know I volunteered one to anyone who wanted it a while back, but it would have been nice if I had been told who was taking it/them. And now that there is a new game they would have come in handy.

Sorry, Elfstone. When I opened up a new room, there were a LOT of swords out there, the game would have been over much too quickly. As such I decided that nobody should have more than 1 sword, and I stole the rest to redistribute to the poor.

Step 1: Find Beethro.
Step 2: Find Stairs.
Step 3: Sovle!

Yeah, Step 1 requires quite bit of sword usage.

I see beethro at (10,13) facing south (so this is his initial direction). Besides that, trapdoors at (14,11) and (13,12) are falled.
PS I assume that top left coner is (1,1).

Ah, I see; that's different. :yes I find myself wondering Deadly (may I call thee Deadly? I hope I may call thee Deadly; Mr Death doeth seem a little formal) anyway I find myself wondering if thee is related perhaps to Robin Hood of great reknown?

After several blind runs through the room I think I've figured out what the central part is: a 7x7 trapdoor box centered at Beethro, with walls all(?) around except for the corners.

There are some free roaches outside the box. I've seen two of them trapped on the force arrows. And one of them killed Beethro at the very exit (16,8), which is marked by cyan square on the image...

From the arrows, I suppose at least the middle section of the room has rotational symmetry?

I created a script for Paint.NET Code lab plugin replaces all master walls with transparent pixels. Usage: select the whole image, Effects->Advance->Code lab, insert the code below, press OK.

It usefull when you want to update your findings with recent room image. This way master walls will not paint over your drawings.

Has anybody decided to drop all the trapdoors in the 7x7 square and see if that toggles the red doors or not?

Greetings! How does one get swords? I occasionally get one when I click the bar. Is it just random whether you get one?

Yes. The bar gets the sword after some random amount of time. Then the first one who clicks will get it. Also there are limits for amount of swords you can get in total (not sure about that) and in a given time.
