I can't seem to get the Aumtlich & Gentryii into a position that'll allow me to safely head for the north section. I've been at it for a while and am completely out of ideas, so would appreciate major hints or a demo. Thanks

I'll start off by saying that:

I thought it might be something like that, but to get there I need to free the Gentryii from his starting position, and I'm not good enough to manoeuvre anywhere helpful with both monsters chasing me. This is my last room in the level, so if anyone could post a demo I'd be very grateful.

You don't need to move the gentryii until the aumtlich is in position.

Thank you! Got it almost instantly - now I feel very stupid indeed...

Well, well. This level got me completely confused. I’ve got no idea what I’m supposed to do in almost any of the rooms.

Might as well start here. So, what’s this room even about?

Okay, correction: I get the most obvious part (the second hint) and the third hint is kinda implied by all of the above discussion. So my question is more like: where does the aumtlich go? How do I use it to help me with the gentryii?

1. Get completely confused by a level.
2. Post a hint request for a random room.
3. Receive no reply.
4. Go ahead and solve all other rooms.
5. Return to the original room, still having to response.
7. Solve the room and leave–oh wait I forgot to kill the aumtlich–go back–solve it again–done.
8. ?????
9. PROFIT!

I imagine Cairos and Occasio have been waiting for me this whole time. Because they can’t start the experiment without Beethro, for some reason. Oh well, shouldn’t keep them waiting.
