:D :D :D Hi Amadeus. I finally found the luck of the Irish, It was in the shape of a round thingy on the ground. This was small wonder of a brilliant level, I kept coming up one coin short though, Until I did a very thorough search of the area, I really liked the ending, Those kind of exits are my favorites. Thank You, For giving me the luck of the Irish. :D :D :D

Lots of luck needed on this one! It took ages to get the kaboom to cooperate! A nice compact puzzle with plenty of challenge!

Thanks!

Well thank you very much Mark - it was truly so sweet of you to make a level for Kazzie and me! :oops: :oops:

You certainly put some muscle into this one Image I truly needed the luck of the Irish to complete it. Image

I have decided that I must run faster than you because I had to "make my move" about one step after the circle square :lol: :lol: :lol:

What a wonderfully challenging level - in every aspect 8) You are so minimalistic, yet find so many ways to puzzle us! The hidden coin was such a stinker - gave me a heart attack every time :wink:

Thanks so much for this level - I loved it :P

I got it finished but Holy Moly! It took me ages as well to get Mr Kaboom to do what I needed and then race around getting things set so I would be able to get holes filled. My head hurts after all that! :lol: :lol: Thanks for the fun Sir! :D :D :D

This one took numerous tries as I sorted it out part by part! Thanks for a fine challenge, Mark!

You were not kidding when you said you need a little Irish luck and some timing! I tried it yesterday but had to come back to it today to get it solved. Very nicely done, thanks Mark!

It took more than a few shamrocks to nail this one Mark, sometimes I did what was expected and other times it didn't work.

A couple of times I was too slow and then at last I got it all sorted but...

Begeez and begorrah, I was missin' one coin! :oops: :twisted:

Back I went and worked at it until Paddy McGinty's goat came home. :lol:

Thank you for a very clever level, it was 'dead on' as they say over here. :wink:

The craic was good in shamrock wood
and the pies were pipin' hot.
Along came Patrick Murphy's men
and ate the flippin' lot! :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

My my .. I think I'm very lucky for the kind dedication but haven't been so lucky on the level - I was hoping to post in triumph but its beat me so far. :cry:

Very challenging as usual Amadeus, thankyou so much for sharing it.

EDIT - Would you believe it ?! - That happens so regularly it's spooky :shock: .. Just had one more attempt and it all slotted into place - superb brainteaser. I'd got the timing right, it was all the other elements I couldn't get right - very enjoyable - thanks again

Solution to "The Luck of the Irish"
Cross the bridge and press sphere right.
Quickly run left into alcove with the coin.
When the sphere stops, push it down into the water.
Go back and push the other sphere right.
Quickly run back into alcove again.
When the sphere stops, push it down into the water.
After the second sphere appears from the teleporter,
go up the convyor belt to the other side.
Get the one coin there and push the keg into the water.
Wait until the next sphere comes down and stops at the wall.
Carefully follow Kaboom around the mushroom to the top left corner.
When Kaboom steps on the blarney stone, go left through
the hidden wall getting the coin and pushing the sphere to the left.
Now wait on the keg bridge until the sphere returns and explodes
Kaboom destroying the top sticky cube.
There are two things that can occur here.
One is the sphere and Kabbom will be destroyed,
The other is Kaboom will be destroyed and the sphere will roll into the
hidden wall at the right destroying the keg that is hidden there.
In the first scenario, wait for the next sphere to come and destroy
the keg and quickly enter the hidden wall and go up to grab the coin.
If the second scenario occurs, you will need to quickly grab the coin
after the boulder is destroyed in the wall. (You can solve the game either way).
After you get the coin in the hidden wall, you will need to quickly
get the coin that where the first cube exploded.
Now push the cube behind that coin, up and to the right, so that it is just one tile to the left of the hidden wall where the keg exploded.
The next sphere will come around and stop at the cube.
Now you can push it up into the water.
When the next sphere stops at the cube push the sphere up into the
water again crossing the sphere bridge you just built.
Wait for the next sphere to arrive and push that one down.
Cross the sphere bridge downwards and move the cube to the right
so that you can push the boulder left against the big mushroom.
Push the boulder down and then right again so it falls into the water.
Push the last cube into the water to make a bridge and get the coin.
Wait for the next sphere to stop before going back to the starting area
to retrieve the last two coins.
Now you can safely exit and collect the seven bonus coins.

Once again, thank you for the spoiler.

I had already decided that I would never, ever do this one, and when I saw the length of the spoiler, I wasn't much encouraged - and once I started in, at least I got a bit farther along than I had originally, but I still didn't hold out much hope of ever getting the timing just right. Something that was supposed to happen, kept not happening.

But eventually, after hours and hours of sweat, strength and pure, unbridled determination, I manged to squeak my way through the many and varied obstacles and deterrents, and finally reached the exit.

Oh joy and exhilaration.

Now, isn't that a nice thank you for all the work you put into writing the spoiler?? I hope many others after me will also appreciate it.

Thanks Mark, you're a doll.
