×This was really, really easy when compared to some of the other puzzles of the level, making me wonder if the intended solution was to just do a quick circle around the guard and force him onto the hot tile. An easy and forgettable puzzle.

×I cannot say if this room was built to simply look difficult because it was actually quite easy to stand at (36,30) with my sword facing north, get the aumtlich to stay at (34,28), have the guard stab the goblin at (36,26), use the guard as a wall to kill the serpent, kill the guard, and use the aumtlich to light the fuse when I stand at (23,13). I did not use the fegundo for anything, nor was it necessary for me to activate the power token.

×Rather than try to use all six guards to shrink the serpent, I circled many times around the mimic trap to kill off the guards until I had a much more manageable group of three. I used this group to kill the serpent and proceeded to use the mimic to kill the remaining guards. This was probably the intended solution. Very enjoyable puzzle, this one!

×1N1E - Fairly easy to kill the mud mother before the other mud connected.
1N1W - I suspect there are many ways to do this. I had six of the seven wubbas following me around at the end.
2N - Unintended solution. Placed the mimic on the entrance square to get my sword back at the beginning.
1E - It took a little trial and error to get all the gel babies through the maze.
1S1E - I don't think I ever had to use the fact that an exploding fegundo doesn't damage a rattlesnake's tail before. I'll remember that. Anyway, I tied the snake in a knot, and there was enough time to use Beethro's sword to break the knot before the door closed.
1S - Came back to this one several times before I saw what to do. I used movement order to solve this.
3W - The only purpose of the mud baby was to make me go into the hot tile area, right? It's neat that you can run around and unbrained monster on orthosquares.
1W - Now why doesn't this room have a matching vision token on the west side? I could only solve it when entering from the west. I suspect someone was trying to trick me.
2W - This room is clearly impossible. I did finally solve it though, by making the goblin act unbrained.
Still working on the secret room.

×First Level
1E: All gel babies successfully arrived to the 19th row.
1N 1E: Killed mud mother shortly before 3rd spawn.
2N: What CSR said(possible to get Beethro's sword back with help of mimic).
1N 1W: Not too hard, fun wubba maze. left 2 wubbas stuck in orbs.
1W: Entering from the west did the trick.
2W: Forced goblin to move onto that pressure plate eventually.
3W: Cutting tar on hot-tiles&orthosquares was easier than expected.
1S 1E: Trapped rattlesnake in such a way that there was free square to NW of its head, then used fegundo to blow it up. Had a lot of moves to spare before adder down there closed the door near entrance.
1S: Firstly, got waterskipper to the south of mimic, then went for the orb.
Secret: Figured it out, finally, thanks to CSR's hint below... Killing SW eye was tricky!

Second level
1E: Made sure mud baby doesn't die too early.
1N 1E: Not too tricky tar cutting&efficiency puzzle.
1S 1E: Lured one of roaches away from its inital position, managed to sneak through to the east of roaches, then lured them all right above the wraithwing trap.
1S 1W: This one was tricky. Managed it eventually after some trial-and-error.
1W: Archieved rock giant arrangement which didn't allow any of them to step on pressure plate while I was going for evil eye.
1N 1W: Hmm, sort-of straightforward. Mimic hit the arrow rotator token on the next turn after Beethro did it - and that's it.
2N 1W: Not too tricky. Sadly, secret variation of this one wasn't much trickier, either.
3N: Neat! With help of clone, I've cut two neighbouring inside corners of gel at the same time.
2N 1E: After getting goblin stuck on SE-pointing arrow, managed to run away from it a bit - that helped to get him stuck on SW-pointing arrow.
3N 1E: This one wasn't too hard - just made sure mimic moves each turn.

Third Level
1S: Made poor guard think that moving on hot tile would kill Beethro.
1S 1E: Used asymmetry in NW oremite corner to get some distance between Beethro and guard.
1N: Just enough gel babies to kill 3 of 5 waterskippers and still *not* lure wubba away from diagonal where it starts. I like how aumtlich won't ever turn east or south at all!
1E: Neat! Used decoys to get some distance between Beethro and roach.
1N 1W: To be honest, breaking all of the orbs was pretty painful(although breaking easternmost one was tricky!)
1N 2W: Decent efficiency puzzle. No moves to spare, obviously.
4W: Really liked this one. Used passage with west-pointing force arrow to get some distance between Beethro and guard, broke some orbs, got back to that passage etc. It felt a bit repeitive after a while, though.
1S 3W: Killed all tar babies, then fried all rock giants.
1S 2W: This one had me stumped for a long time; the solution was more straightforward than I thought, though - managed to lure one of roaches to the north of Beethro using others as obstacles.
1S 1W: Not too hard golem packing puzzle.
Secret room: Umm, I'm not sure... did you intend me to use *fegundo* to light that fuse?(in which case, it's supposed to be much trickier than it is now, I guess... aumtlich makes it all very easy)

Fourth level
1E: Nice room. Got the adder to move to the west instead of circling in NE part of cage - after that killing serpent/getting speed potion wasn't too hard.
1N 1E: Used tar babies to block aumtlich's gaze. What's the point of broken walls?(EDIT: Allright, completed it the intended way now - much more interesting than using tar baby to block aumtlich beam)
2N 2E: It was pretty tricky to kill SE roach without making guard move on lowest row after that, but eventually I did it.
2N 3E: Made sure guards don't stab any mirrors too early.
3N 1E: Dropped aumtliches down in the pit. This was extremely easy, sadly.
3N 2E: Lower pair of guards were stuck in each others' swords for a couple of turns; and I made sure upper ones move vertically instead of diagonally/horizontally as much as possible.
3N: The trick of killing two roaches is *neat* and had me stumped for a while. Nice job!
2N 1W: After a while of planning, managed to get all adders to have equal length.
1N 1W: I felt that getting-back-after-killing-roach part is trickier than keeping roach away from that pressure plate.
1W: Circled around mimic, killing all but one guard - then used that guard to kill serpent... and killed guard. It seems that the trickiest part is actually avoiding guards in the beginning and getting near the mimic.
Secret room: Lured all guards near central decoy. It was pretty simple, especially for a secret room...

×The key was figuring out what had to be left in the room when the southwest eye woke.

×1S1W - Interesting idea. It wasn't too hard to make a path that would never be crossed by aumtlich beams.
3N - Just enough clone switching to keep new skippers south of the nest.
2N1E - Got enough distance between Beetho and goblin, so he wouldn't use vertical preference to avoid the final arrow.
3N1E - Danced around in the upper right corner to kill each snake one square at a time.
2N1W - Used precision guard manipulation to kill all the mothers between spawns 1 and 2.
1W - Made a pretty "flower" arrangement of rock giants blocking each other.
1N1W - Rotated arrows on two consecutive turns with help from mimic.
1E - As the tar grew, this room kind of solved itself for me. The mud baby stashed itself in a good spot. I wonder if I'll be so lucky the next time around.
1N1E - It's possible to solve this room by removing all the tar instead of being clever or efficient.
1S1E - Nice one! It's nice to see that, even in 2011, there are still clever puzzles to be made using only AE elements. Figuring out how to pass one of the roaches was key.
secret - Not much different from the regular version of the room. This time I waited for a spawn so there would be tar left. Much easier than the Level 1 secret.

×1S - The silly swordless guard tried to backswipe me and stepped right on to the hot tile.
1N2W - I did not press 5 on the trapdoors.
1S3W - Rather messy. I killed the babies with a clone and the giants on the hot tiles.
1N1W - The real puzzle was getting the aumtlich to destroy the easternmost orb. Arranging 16 mimics to do that took a long time and gave me a strong sense of deja vu... didn't I do that already in a certain postmastery room?
1E - Crossed the tunnel to unbrain the roach at appropriate times. Fun. (Sounds like mxvladi found a US though.)
1N - After lots of trying, I finally left enough gel babies alive to reach the 4th skipper without letting the aumtlich light the fuse.
1S1E - Clockwise seems the correct direction here, as the guard has trouble with a corner then.
1S2W - Needed a line of many roaches with scrambled movement order to get started on this one.
4W - Ran circles around the smart guard. Does the line of broken orbs really need to be 7 wide?
1S1W - I don't know why it took me so long to do this one, as it's clear what the goal is, and what a good intermediate step should be.
secret - As mxvladi mentions, this room is broken, because the fegundo can light the fuse.

×secret - This was actually the first room I solved, as it's so straightforward. I just moved all the guards to the other decoy.
2N2E - My trick was to avoid making too many wiggles in the top part of the path, so the loose roaches could get through quickly.
3N2E - Use the fact that smart guards prefer to move orthogonally.
3N1E - Moved some platforms together so there was room to run around an aumtlich.
2N3E - Guards touched the mirrors with sword west, but diagonal step.
1N1W - Used mimics and Beethro to trigger three rotator tokens per turn.
1N1E - Uses the rule that tarstuff blocks aumtlich beams, but not eye gazes. It was pretty tricky to remove all the crumbly walls while leaving cutabble tarstuff, but I finally did it. Mxvladi's way, using a tar baby to block the aumtlich is much easier.
1E - Broke the symmetry in snake movement by luring the adder west.
1W - It's annoying how the guards can kill the mimic. I suppose that's fair though. Killed 5 guards, then serpent (on guard and force arrows), then last guard.
2N1W - Even with the helpful force arrows on the pits, it was hard for a Rabbit to visualize what the adders were going to do. It would be easier for me if the helps were still arranged in a square, but offset from the snakes. I ended up solving this with a little algebra. Not sure if that made it any faster though.
3N - Given more than enough tools, which ones will do the job? This is an unusual sort of room for a BoyBlue hold. You should make more of these. They're fun. The "tools" I used were one aumtlich, one golem, one wraithwing, and a tunnel. I'm embarrassed to say it took me ages to see that last part.

×First you have to step on 33, 2 then go 4 spaces SW, then SE straight to the wall and then again SW and you should be on 33,16. Distance between guard and you is one space and you should always keep it at least that one space. You will get more distance by using the passage. Use diagonal lines while breaking orbs. I broke only one orb before reentering passage, and I also broke them diagonally.

×That would be second. Wake and kill only one other eye before waking the SW one.

LEVEL 1

2N – Only way how I was able to solve this room is to get Beethro's sword back. You should leave it that way. It is appropriate for the first level.
1W – I agree with CSR that there should be a matching vision token on the west side.
Secret room – It is hard as hell and tricky to the max. What madness inspired you to make this one?

LEVEL 2

Secret room – I agree with everyone else that this room isn’t much trickier than 2N1W. You should leave it out of this hold.

LEVEL 3

4W – Definitely too wide line of broken orbs. 5 spaces would be more than enough.
Secret room – Sorry that I have to tell you, but it totally sucked.

LEVEL 4

2N1E – I love the way how the player needs to find a way out of this level.
1W – Killed only 1 guard and used other 5 to kill the snake going zigzag in the room.
1N1E – I also used tar babies to block aumtlich's gaze. I needed to cut tar and break the walls carefully so that I can be left with only one wall inside of the final blob when cutting it before heading for the oremites.
2N2E – Personally I think that would be better if there is a wall on 0, 20 and 37, 20 and a floor on 0, 21 and 37, 21. Why? When I examined the room quickly I would find myself in the next room. I’m aware of lock feature but it would be easier this way.
3N – Why did you put rattlesnake with wraithwings?
2N1W – It would be nicer if all the snakes have the same length to the point of curve. It would be easier to solve the room that way. I hate when I need to count squares again and again. Suggestion: decrease number of potions to the minimum. I solved the room very easy when I wrote possibilities on the paper.

CONCLUSION:

I’m very pleased with the length of this hold and variety of the puzzles. Overall VERY ENTERTAINING AND ENJOYABLE HOLD, although I miss lack of citizens and stalwarts in it; they should be at least in the one room (new secret rooms, perhaps). I also found that first level was easy, second normal, third hard and fourth very hard, although there can be found fairly easy rooms in the last two levels. I don’t think that such a steep increasing in difficulty will appeal to all players especially inexperienced ones.
Oh, I don’t want to forget to tell you that I simply hate searching for so well hidden secret rooms. I felt that I’m loosing precious time examining every wall with my sword. That is simply TOO BORING.

×Now I need to use a flying fegundo to block an aumtlich beam.

×<<comments removed, as they could contain some spoilers>>

×L1 2S3W: With tunnels 7, 15 and 29, 15 this room is very easy, but without them it is way more challenging and interesting. I am sending you both solutions.
