Can anyone offer some guidance to defeat this room or is it just a matter of efficiency. Seems to be too much going on in this confined space & no where to turn and attack.

I'm not sure that I'm the best to offer help, but I did manage to beat this room (in 150 moves more than the best demo). All I can say is that I entered heading SW and used the blue snakes to shield me from the eyes moving generally SW then W-E then S ( by which time I had killed all the eyes) then gradually N/NE . Some of the blue snakes trapped themselves in their tails which helped.

I could post a demo if you wish (and if I can find out how to do that) but there are better demos out there. Good luck!

Thanks Elfstone, kinda figured it just added up to perseverance.
