My request is for more ways of blocking evil eyes' sight. Currently the only way for a swordsman to sneak past them is to close a door in front of them.

So my suggestion is for the next long monster or tar variant to be opaque - so that EE's can't see through them.

If I remember right, orbs block the line of sight too...
And I'm not sure we really need these puzzles where you have to manipulate a monster (tar, whatever) to block the line of sight of an eye. Does it serve any other purpose?

To clarify, I'm talking about ways of blocking sight that the swordsman can control. So, orbs do but Beethro can't move them about.

The two main uses I can think of are monster manipulation puzzles (keeping them alive, getting them in the right place etc) and another kind of timer (finish before an EE becomes blocked/unblocked).

But I'm only proposing this as an additional feature of a new creature, so I don't see limited use as necessarily a bad thing.
