I can get the roach most of the way through, but I can't manage the last bit. I've gotten it as far as the upper-left heat tiles, but then it moves past the door before I can get to the pressure plate so I can't get the token.

Should I be trying to move it there or do I want to somehow manipulate it to the checkpointless heat tile in the nearby corner? If so, how exactly do I get it there? Best I could manage was one move short, and I could manage that if I could get it behind the westernmost wall, but that doesn't seem doable from any of the heat tiles I can use for the spike cycle before.

I was about to post about how I couldn't see how to do that and then I figured it out.

Well, I have no idea how to have the roach on both hot tiles and survive. Any further hints?

The answer is that is not needed. Though at a specific turn, both tiles must be occupied.

I can't seem to progress from the Nth wall tiles, beethro on the left & roach on the right
moving west to the corner tile leaves me 1 move short so one of us dies? any more hints please.

What do you mean "Beethro doesn't hide from floor spikes on the
5,20 hot tile". He dies if he doesn't duck for cover on the hot
tile. Very hard room, I'm always one move short for saving them.
Maybe I need a demo. Thanks.

Thanks Karl and Triple, I finally got it. Once I realized that
the wall directly below the two hot tiles could delay the roach one
turn then it feel into place after much frustration. I'm generally
pretty good with spike levels and I enjoy figuring them out but this
one had me confounded, thanks and onward we go.

i can't get the roach to the corner hot tile, he's one move too quick. the wall that's near the previous two tiles doesn't help, cause i can't stash him there from the hot tile near it................never mind, needed to position beethro different. got it
