This is perfectly normal. You can press on to new places for now, right?

first, to quell your fears, a secret room cannot be required to open a blue door.

secondly, you've been to all the room on the level that you need to go to

So where are you stuck now, if not in these ten rooms on level 15?

Well I am clearly missing something. I've done everything except the secret room here - but can't find a way to get the blue bar to drop. I've done every other room in the game - been back up to 14 and 13 and back down again and still the bar is up. Any chance of some help O Legendary Smitemasters?

You need to do all the required rooms on the 15th Floor from the same *save*, then walk back to the Entrance. If you look at your minimap after restoring to the Entrance of L15, you should note that there's many unseen or uncompleted rooms compared to your more complete map in the Restore screen. This is because the save for that room is from when you first entered the level.

So your best bet is to restore to Fifteenth Level:1S1W, complete that again to drop the Blue Door (as seen in Fifteenth Level:1S), and then walk *all* the way back to Fifteenth Level:Entrance, starting by taking the stairs up from Fifteenth Level:1S.

Thanks - so subtle! I wasn't going up at Fifteenth 1S.

This is my last room before the dreamplane. I thought I understood what was being said both here and in the other two threads but I remain confused.
I cant see how to place a decoy to kill the isolated roach to the north as I have to draw him to the right first.
Any chance of a demo please? I have spent hours on this and keep coming up with the same problems.

Here I am stuck again years later. First time I played I couldn't
make it to the Dreamplane. I only need to find & complete the
secret room on 15. I've tried to follow the posts but I'm
obviously doing something wrong. I keep returning to 15, S1 which, as far as I can tell,
is isolated from the rest of the level. Could some one please
tell me the location of the rooms containing the stairs on the
levels I'm supposed to run through? I've been running in circles
for days & I'm ready, once again, to throw in the towel. TIA Doris

From 15 Once South, take the stairs up (the ones that are further from the checkpoint) to Level 13. Go to Thrice West and back down.
