I need a hint here, please! I'm missing something obvious, I think. I can't seem to figure out how to avoid getting the eyes in untenable positions. I kill the snake & then get stuck. A hint to change my train of thought would be appreciated. Thanks!

The snake was the second monster I killed...




After that, it was just a matter of watching my step to make sure I didn't trip off any eyes. You will trip a couple of eyes when you get the mimic potions (this is unavoidable since they are looking at the potions), but you can use the mimics at the end to go get those eyes.

Does that help? If not, can you explain more specifically where you are stuck?

Hi Stigant,
Thanks for the hints. While waiting for a reply, I went back & tried again. Wouldn't you know success! I read your hints but I solved the room differently.





Your way is easier!

The snake and eyes are no problem. But no matter what I do, I can't avoid getting roaches trapped beyond the force arrows at 1 and 2. How do I prevent them getting there?

It's all a matter of speed - you need to get west enough in time so that no roaches will move into the vicinity of those traps.
