that seep shouldn't be a problem because there's a handy decoy potion on the screen. are you using the decoy for something else? what? perhaps you need to think about another way to do that.

Do I need to clear all the tar or are 2x2 rounds OK?

When do you need to clear out tar?

Only when there are some black doors; then, you would need to fully clear mud and tar, though babies are fine.

Since there is no black door here, you do not have to worry about tar - not too much anyway.

Also, I think that if you want to go to a certain room from here, you need to not solve this room first.

Know what I mean??

You can always restore back to this room before it is completed and you will still get credit.

Game on,

I am also having a problem w/ the lone Seep in the lower SE corner.

The yellow door goes up between the lower east and west sections; also the post upon which a Seep is sitting in the upper NW corner disappears but I still don't see the connection among these elements, and the decoy, and the lone Seep sitting atop the wall in the SE corner. What am I missing?

Thanks all. I got it. I had made the mistake of going to this room first (on this level) before I had understood about Seeps (I thought they were nasty little light bulbs).

Read all the thread & still can't solve. If I use the decoy in the SE to kill the seep, how do I get the seeps in the room with the bomb? Hitting the orb breaks the fuse, when the gate closes. So I don't understand how to set off the bomb. Am I missing something about fuses & bombs?

What happens if you strike the orb twice?

Hey, means that all that you never can turn back when you first clear this room, then go to the secret in the east?

By the way: How to solve that dammed secret room? I try to clear out all the tar before the fuse has past it so it can grow, but it doesn't work.It grows into all arrows! Yucky. (From the biginning of the room to the first tar of 2x3 takes 31 moves/steps, you can't reach it early enough.)

Yes, you'll have to restore back to this (or any other room if you had already progressed further) to go back.

But the nice thing about secret rooms is that once they're solved they stay solved no matter what, so restoring back doesn't impede on your progress.

As for the room east of this one - take a look here...
