What defines a "Smotherpuzzle"?

My "Iceberg" and ab-47's "Magic Cave Of Freeze" both have puzzles as hard as this (Cave Of Freeze might be harder!). I think we should try making even more in the future.

My 48th adventure topic wrote:This adventure houses one of my most devious puzzles yet. I call it a "Smotherpuzzle," due to the way that many puzzle elements are smothered into one claustrophobic room. It's inspired by the puzzles made during Return to Wonderland's Golden Ages.

It's been almost 10 days, so here's the solution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqB3iOHxAio

The video just shows how to solve the puzzle, but it doesn't show the ending cutscene. You'll have to complete the level yourself for that!

THANK YOU!

EDIT: I finished it. The ending was freaky. I can't wait for the next level!

I actually haven't gotten around to attempting this. Smotherpuzzles were why I never did any good at RTW levels.

BUMPED. I managed to finish this using the video...seven times.

*shot for being completely stupid* The cutscene with Carnifex at the end creeped me out...brr...

Smother puzzles are the hard puzzles I can see nowadays, Snowstorm and The corrupted folder are the hardest, so I really don't blame you for using the walk through video.

Snowstorm wasn't that hard, it was just tricky. This level was hard for many reasons. For me, the top reason is that the VR texture makes everything hard to see...

Oh, have you found the right solution yet?

In any case, this adventure didn't have 4 alternate solutions. That makes it better than Snowstorm in the first two seconds.

Actually, I discovered you can do some things in different order than what was intended. You can get the second blue key before or after you get the green key and open the green gate.

Once you gain the ability to hold down the orange button, you can do either of the things first. In the video solution I just chose to remove the Cuboid before retrieving the blue key. So no, that doesn't count as an alternate solution.
