New Level -- Bad Boulders

Muzozavr · Post by **Muzozavr** » Sun Sep 23, 2007 8:20 am

Suddenly got inspired by "The Boulder Caves" and made this level in about 30 minutes. Probably not as hard as "The Boulder Caves" but it will have you thinking -- definitely.
Call this a homage to TBC if you want.

Not quite as hard as 'TBC' but you're right, definitely some thinking involved!

I had to try a few moves this way and that until it finally clicked into place.

Thanks Muz, good fun!

Boulder and Buttons & Coins, oh my! I'm happy to see you back, my friend!

Even if inspiration came from last year, this was a brilliant placement puzzle!

Lots of logical fun.

I'm not even close to solving this level- I HAVE gotten out of the first room- though I'm not so sure I've done so correctly.

But just in case I get lost or trapped in this level I wanted to make sure I let you know that I love this level! I love brain teasers!

SO- I'm going to pluck away... and I have a feeling that this is one of those levels that may take weeks if not months for me to solve. Even though you just "threw it together" in about 30 minutes.

THANKS for sharing your stinkerish brilliance!

EDIT:

oh my gosh- I GOT IT!!! I just kept thinking of you saying it's not that hard so I tried what seemed "easy" and obvious AND I GOT IT!
I did have to restart once for pushing the wrong boulder first to smash the boxes....... thanks, stinker! Lots of fun!!!

angi-no-e, if you think this one is hard, don't even try Antrow's "The Boulder Caves" series. They are a lot harder (and mostly much more creative)

And without "The Boulder Caves" I wouldn't be inspired to make this level.

Bad Muzzie! Bad bad Muzzie!

This sure is a brain twister! I too got out of the first room and here I sit, pushing, grunting, shoving and swearing.

I just can't seem to figure this bad boy out. May I have a hint as to which boulder in the second room to push first please? Oh and which direction to push it, oh and what my goal is here....do I want green/red open first? I'm assuming yes cuz opening blue at this point doesn't really help me much but I may need it open now for future use UGHHHHH help perty please

do I want green/red open first?

Yes.

Big hint:

You need TWO of the boulders from the first room to be pushed in the second room. One to get out of the first room, another to solve the second room.

I can't even figure out how to get out of the first room muz, can you throw a hint my way please?

There's no way for me to get two boulders out of the first room and still be able to exit so I guess I'm doin' the first room wrong

I can't help, sowwy

Playing this for 3 weeks now and haven't found a way out of the first room yet. Tried everything (obviously not

)

May I have a hint, please

Thanks for the help on getting started, Kiki

Excellent boulder puzzle, Muz. Needed only a hundred more tries after leaving the first room

Thanks

Sorry, Lutz, for not seeing your cries of help. My cookies have glitched and I thought that no new posts were in this thread.
And thanks Kiki, for coming to help.

Hint for getting out of the first room:

Don't try to cover both the red and yellow buttons in the first room... That will do no good. You might try using the red button from the SECOND room, however.

Hint for the second room:

Actually you'll need another boulder to solve it correctly. Try to get one out from the first room. The bonus coins will help you in that.

Ouch, really bad those boulders, but they ended up where they should. Cool level!
