Ahh, the wonderful orb/trapdoor puzzle. This is a tough one, and it's one of those which is really hard to give hints for.



And I hated this room as well. I still do, in fact.

Hi, I am stuck on this one also. I tried drawing it etc, but couldn't work it out. Can more help be given?

Cheers,

Snufke

This room was one of the ones that took me longest to solve. It really does take several tries - what I did was try one method, and if that didn't work, do it again with one difference, although that took a while. Once you've got the first orb correctly, the rest is easy.


If you really can't get it, then I'll post a complete spoiler. I thought there were some other hints elsewhere on this room, but none of them are much use...

Alas, I am also stuck on this room. As for figuring out the order of the orbs, i can't get past 3 or 4 orbs before i get stuck anyways. Right now i'm trying the 'bouncing off the walls' technique... it isn't working too well.

Well, then, take it slowly. Write down the sequence that you know, and then figure out how to move so you get to the last one. Trust me, draw a map. You'll have to re-do it after you figure out what the later orbs do, but it's not so bad (and the last one will be obvious by process of elimination).

Game on,

Okay, I just finished this room a couple of days ago, so I can give you a hint. First of all, it's a good idea to export a pic of the room and work on that (for example erasing the square where a trap door is to symbolise having gone over it). Otherwise you'll get tired pretty quickly of running from the room door to the first trap door. Here comes a useful method which may help:



And here is a half-spoiler:



Hope that helps.

For those who don't want a complete spoiler, but want a definite hint:



Alright, that was poorly worded, but it's late.

Try leroy00:s sugestion (although squared paper will work just as fine as a printout of the room). It´s fun to try and find a path with pen and paper, and it´s not that difficult to see when you shut yourself in and have to try a diferent path (or change something in the old one).
