OK, I admit it...I like to look at the rooms in holds even when I'm not playing the game. Sometimes I see something I hadn't noticed before, like a crumbly section of wall.

But lately, I'm finding myself foiled on a couple of rooms.

I've been dutifully slogging through Journey to Rooted Hold, and I've made it up to Level 23. However, I found a secret room...keeping the rest secret so I don't give anything away to those who care:

Any ideas why this could be the case?

Try 'Upload Scores' in the Settings screen.

Oh, and good luck with 23. It's a tough one.

Yeah, I did try that...doesn't seem to have had any effect.

The only thing I can think of is that you didn't exit the game before checking the forum...high scores for a room is separate from the level progress statistic that determines what rooms you can see. Perhaps this is not the case?

Game on,

Afraid not. I've been in and out of DROD multiple times since posting the original message, and I am definitely getting updated. I can now see all of Level 23, and almost all of Level 24...but I still can't see the Entrance of Level 23, and I've been back through there multiple times as well.

Weird...

Bumping this topic up a bit. I've now conquered Journey to Rooted Hold and have 100% explored on all levels (except Dreamplane, as I haven't actually solved all the secrets yet).

However, I still can't see Level 23, Entrance or

on Caravel.net.

Should I post this on the Bugs board? As I noted, it's not a really big deal, but it would be nice to figure out why...

Can you try again? I might have just fixed a bug that prevented your viewing them.

Hi Schik --

Whatever you did appears to have solved the problem. Thanks!!!
