Taking a break and ending a "war"...

This room doesn't seem possible. Any hints on something I'm missing? TIA

I've not played that room, but it looks quite simple in the picture.

I know it "looks" simple, but count the moves from the nearest entrance... with the red goober moving to the left each step. I'm always about 2-3 moves shy.

Seems like... hmmm. Just had an idea. Oh yeah, that'll work. <ahem> Never mind. :blush

Hey Django - like to share your idea - I've been stuck here for ages.

Thanks

Well, I've completed the room after giving that first reply and I don't really have a lot to add.

×Try entering the room with different sword directions and try to drop the trapdoors in different orders. There aren't many possibilities...

No still can't work it out

I've now run out of papaer and pens working out a route!

×I reckon I've got 14 moves to get level with the force arrow and still knock out the trap doors

Ah, I see your problem now.

Thanks Doom - I can go out and buy some more paper and pens - I can see sword direction is the key - finally carcked it.

Thanks a lot
