Hi Liz,

I know what black & white & red all over.

But I can't sort out all those boxes without getting Kaboomed!

EDIT:

I appreciate all your help Liz.
Wouldn't have crossed the finish line without you.

I was doing everything the wrong way at the wrong time.

What an imagination you have to conjure up something so grand!

Mucho Thanx

I didn't mean for this level to be such a stinker as it turned out to be

Mark has very kindly made this video solution for anyone who wants to watch how this level should be played. Thanks so much Mark!

Though I don't suppose many of you will have time for this as the Holiday Competition levels have now been posted! Whoopeee!

Must admit to having to watch the video, Lizzie. Got the beginning portion on my own & even trapped the one Kaboom but then didn't do the right thing with the rest of the boxes & the sphere so ended up stuck

This was an excellently designed level & just wish I could have solved it myself. Great answer to the riddle too

Oh, that would've been SO much easier!!!

Would you belive I actually left the two walkers around and then tried to avoid them and time my run through the gates when they were walking on those buttons. No wonder I died about 100 times in that last room! I was pretty rpoud of myself for actually getting it done, but now I feel a bit silly for taking the hadest possible path.

Daaaaangy Liz! That was a humdinger and I must admit, I had to look at the video, I don't think I would have got this one on my own.

Top notch box pushing puzzle. Thanks for the ace fun.

Loopy! You nutcase!

Wow, you certainly should feel proud of yourself if you made it out under those circumstances. Well done for finding an alternative solution - but then you didn't get your nickname for nothing!

I thought I had this one - but then I didn't

So thanks for the spoiler because actually I didn't have it at all

Thanks Lizzie and I am looking forward to the next in the series hon

Took an age to sort this one out and trap the kabooms where I needed them but eventually the gold was ours!

I haven't seen the video yet but I'm curious to see if I did it the intended way

BTW, aren't they dark blue, not black

Thanks Liz!

Tried this and that and finally had to peek at the video

Quite a stinker but fun to play. Thanks

I have done this one before, but I forgot it all, so I just did it again.

The number of boxes is sufficient, but not a single box is extra, so think carefully where you want to place them.

I've BEEN thinking carefully! LOL for a few days now :O:O I'll keep tryin

I know it's just a matter of placement. do I use one of the bottom boxes to block the boomer on white? and the other shot over to the red button? If that's right just a hint as to which side to start with would be great!!

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Sat Apr 11, 2015 8:09 pm

Yes, you are correct about the white and red buttons.
You start with a path upwards from the right side.
