I have to say that all the entries have been great, congrats to all.

My biggest nightmare has to be Lightning! I just can't get through this one at all, definitely a CHALLENGE.

My vote goes to Stinky Crusoe ( still not completed ) I think it was well planned, great stuff!

My second choice would be Just 3 Coins, another good puzzle.

Last but not least, Surprise, it was good fun.
Whoever sent this one must have the same warped mind as myself!!!!
Hint; We both seem to enjoy hiding chompers. teehee.

I agree with Eeyore31, everyone should receive a prize, after all 14 isn't a lot to MS is it Patrick?

Well folks, that;s Maureen thrown out of the forum. ha ha.

Hi Wonderlanders,

As I stated in an earlier post I wasn't to keen to name my top 3 as this really does come down to ones' preference in level type.

I am another who prefers a logical challenge so bearing that in mind, and of course excluding my own (Yes I did find out what the Level Editor was all about) :-

1 Diversionary Tatics

2 Stinky Crusoe

3 A Small Adventure

I would also like a special additional prize for 5 year-old Andrew (unless his was one of the above of course !!).

Sorry Majic1, it was you who mentioned a prize for everyone.

Just getting confused in my old age!

Well, mine would basically be the ones I listed in the "Fun" section of my comments. I'm not sure if I can narrow things down to 3. I also just can't rate my own level, because...you know, if you make it yourself, your experience playing it just won't be the same as someone else making the level, since you know nothing about it when you start playing.

For those of you who haven't completed Stinky Crusoe (ie. CASTAWAY) yet, here's a hint: Kaboom is your friend, don't blow the poor guy up

. He's there to help!

Let me know if you need another hint.

PS. Majic1 commented on this earlier, but I thought I'd elaborate a little further.

Ah-ha! I guessed right! I knew this is your level! Only you can make levels that have me try over 50+ times before figuring it out, and then 50 more times because I keep messing up.

It really is a very good level, though I think I really learned to hate the chomper and the coily a lot after my 15th try or so.

Rumor Department-
LeanDemon and LinkyNStoof are the same person.
The Jekyll/Hyde of the Wonderland World.
This has not been confirmed.
It is just a rumor.

Seriously- Great levels you two!

I was expecting great things from both of you. Crusue and Diversionary Tactics are in my top three.

Who will be the third?-
Surprise
Three Coins
A Small Adventure

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Mon Feb 09, 2004 11:54 pm

My picks? Boy, what a decision! Guess I'd pick Stinky Crusoe, 3 Coins, hmmmmm, not sure which one for the 3rd!

jperleevt · Post by **jperleevt** » Tue Feb 10, 2004 12:39 am

Top three very hard to choose but here goes:

Just 3 Coins
A Small Adventure
It's a Contest

Everyone's a winner in my eye though!

Hi all,
I guess I can't put this off! I had a hard time picking three, but here goes.....

I would say that my three picks would be Stinky Crusoe, More Than Meets the Eye, and Surprise! . They are three different types of puzzles and different difficulty levels. The order does not indicate placement, because I can't compare apples and oranges. As for the most difficult, I would say Divesionary Tactics, Coins 3, Lightning Strikes, and Stinky Crusoe. I still haven't completed those!

I agree with majic1, though, every one of the levels entered deserves a prize! They were all so inventive!

Absolutely! The best part about this is getting 14 more levels to not only be played, but to get inspired by.

For example, I was thinking about one of the levels and how if I made it, how I might want to jazz things up...and voila, a new idea is born!

But I might not have time until this weekend to flesh it out into a level though. (And don't worry, this time I guarantee you'll have no problems figuring out what to do; the difficulty will solely be in the "doing" part.)

Basically it's an idea of making a hedge maze a little more dangerous, but not via hidden monsters...

Davimad · Post by **Davimad** » Tue Feb 10, 2004 10:54 am

Lean Demon, great level love it to bits.

The only problem is; How do I stop the kaboom from getting blown to kingdom come?
Secondly, I can't stop that steel box from moving onto the conveyor!
I have tried countless times , please help.

Incidentally, I agree with maldelsol on the subject of Andrew, he should get a prize for being the youngest contestant!

SORRY PATRICK! FORGOT THAT I WAS BLOWN UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Milchi · Post by **Milchi** » Tue Feb 10, 2004 11:06 am

Seriously, I think those levels are far too difficult and that ruins all the fun for me.

I just don't like thinking uncounted hours how to solve something and then play five minutes.

How about posting a solution for every level submitted to this forum as a seperate entry (clearly marked as SOLUTION TO). This would be a real benefit; maybe I could even understand the principle behind levels like this...

Good idea... I will start a new thread labeled "Small World Level Solutions". Could you write (or copy/paste) a solution to your level on this thread (no obligation, obviously). That way the full solutions are separate from the hints/discussions.

SharonM · Post by **SharonM** » Wed Feb 11, 2004 5:25 pm

Robbie,
Apologies for not mentioning your level

! I meant to say that as far as pure creativity goes, yours stands alone! I like the story theme and alternative play (meaning, not the usual Wonderland objectives)! It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I usually play RPG's and this is sort of reminiscent of those. Keep up the good work!

Muzozavr · Post by **Muzozavr** » Wed Sep 20, 2006 7:12 am

Lightning Strikes is not an arcade level? Or my fingers are just too good?

OK, if you got me wrong, I mean that all this action was really easy for me. BUT I was stuck on HOW to get Stinky out of the beginning for a really long time! Once it clicked, the rest was easy-peasy.

And no, I didn't fell for the ending trick because I knew it myself already.

I've solved this level with 2:15 left on the clock.

Sorry for picking up such an old thread, but seeing your sayings about lightning strikes, I couldn't resist.

I'm new to this, and can't find the location of these 14 new levels. Can you please send me the path/link to find. I even went to Midnight Synergy to see if the games were posted there, but found nothing. Thank you in advance for helping a newbie.

Here you go Foxy

This was the first original Small Worlds Competition: http://pcpuzzle.com/forum/viewtopic.php ... ompetition

Then there was another Small Worlds Competition more recently: http://pcpuzzle.com/forum/viewtopic.php ... ompetition

Have fun

janetgalle · Post by **janetgalle** » Wed Sep 20, 2006 3:06 pm

These are not "new" levels.
They were created for a competition in 2004.
Have fun, we did...... way back then.
