I'm mystified! I can find no reference in the Monter/Game Element sections to these bomb things. I have no idea how to get round them - the mimic seems to be as good at exploding them as Beethro and I'm getting awfully tired of dying.

Bombs explode, destroying most things within a 3-square radius if beethro (or any other character) touches them with a sword, or if a fuse burns into the bomb (there are no fuses in this room, so don't worry about those). So you have to beat the room without touching any of the bombs. I think, though, that the mimic should be placed in the area with the tar since there's a black gate on the other side of the bombs. You need to clear the tar with the mimic without beethro touching any bombs.

That was tricky! but my thanks to you stignant.

Actually I'm very impressed by the speed with which cries for help are answered on this board and the extent to which so many members are prepared to give of their time and expertise.

Hello! Yes, I figured that I needed to destroy all the tar with the mimic, but I keep on getting left with an oblong strip of tar at the top, and I can't work out how to get the mimic to it... I realise that I need to use the gap in the bottom row of bombs to give myself an extra row with which to work, but I can't manoeuvre my sword in the top row (just under the bombs) without blowing myself up. Am I doing something wrong? Should I not be leaving tar in that spot?

Thanks in advance...

Not to worry! I just figured it out. Hehe. Sorry.
