Okay, I think I got the room correct...I think you meant 1N 3W initially (1N 2W doesn't have the Slayer in it). 1N 3W is the final room on level 3, the final room in the demo. Once you kill the roach queens and drop the green door, you need to go down the stairs on the bottom right...get Halph to open the door for you like he was doing on level 2.

Game on,

Well...you said you killed all the roach queens already in your first message, so the green door should have dropped then. So now I'm quite confused. Are you having trouble killing the roach queens?

Game on,

All roach queens are dead, and I hear clear when the last one was killed, but the green door remains in place. The slayer keeps saying the door can't be opened from this side. I am at a true loss as to what to do now.

The yellow door can't be opened from this side. Bump into the door and halph will help you open it.

Yes...I have never heard of a green door not dropping when all monsters were fully killed. So either you mean the yellow door instead of the green door, in which case we've told you the solution...or it's not the correct room, in which case we need to know what the correct room is...or it really is a bug with the green door that needs to be investigated. But I really doubt that last one.

Game on,

Well, I am beginning to think there may be a glitch in the game since the green door hasn't opened after the last roach queen was killed. I made it this far so I will try to re-start the game and try it again. Thank you for trying to help me. Just to confirm though, it is the grren door in Third Level-1 North, 3 West. I can see Halph on the other side of the wall but can't reach the yellow door for him to open.

The Slayer only says this when you enter the bottom part of the room...I just checked in the dev build. So you have already killed the queens, and already dropped the green door...and just need to bump the yellow door to get Halph to open it, avoiding the Slayer while Halph is running to the orb.

Game on,

Can you replay the room and tell me exactly where the Slayer says that the door doesn't open from this side?

Just to keep you informed, when I hit R to restart room, all roach queens are still dead, the slayer follows me in the room, I walk down towards where the green door is and the slayer says " a bad way to go Delver, that door doesn't open from this side.

If you hear Slayer to say those words, you've already passed the green door. The other door should definitely be yellow and openable by the orb that's behind. Bump the door to tell Halph to open it and you should get through in a short while.

Okay...this is indeed very odd. Can you take a screenshot of the room for me? The most basic way to do this is to use the PrintScreen button on the upper right of your keyboard, which copies an image of your screen to the clipboard. Then you can paste it into an image editing program (like MS Paint, which comes with Windows), and save it as an image file. Then post it as an attachment to this thread so we can check it out.

If you have the demo version...which I don't have a copy of...I suppose it's possible there's some kind of bug. But I'd still like to see what you see.

Thanks!

Game on,

He probably left the room and came back and pressed r so of course the monsters wouldn't come back.

Perhaps, but it is still the case that the green door shouldn't be there, so I still want to see a screenshot.
