The title, level, and texture were inspired by one of our talented Wonderland crew. :D
Yes, you know who you are -- and I'm glad you're back. :wink:

Using Janet Galle's radiant RedTemple texture for the interior.

Yeah, great level, Mark. Every room was a challenge, and I cannot believe that I actually made it :!: I had to use every thinking cap I've ever had :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Thanks, buddy!!!

Hi Mark - what a lovely tribute to our Inspector Gadget, Lillie. 8)

Great to play one of your mind-benders and no surprise that I can't complete it, out of practise as I am.

I loved the first box puzzle - absolutely ace. Then it took me a few tries to do the cannon/prism part. But now I'm stuck with the trampoline/sphere/boulder/goobie.

Still working on it. :D :D

Thank you so much, Liz! :D
I'm thrilled to see you playing again! :D

The puzzle in the SW corner is particularly difficult
Here is a walk-through for the first part:
Jump D, D and roll the sphere up so it lands on the pink button.
Tramp goob up, and roll boulder down against the coin.
Jump U, L to get the coin below the Goob.
Jump R, U and slide the Goob down one tile.
Jump D, L to roll boulder up against aqua gate.
Now the boulder is in the correct position to destroy the sphere.

Hey Mark,
This is a really fun puzzle. I had already finished the above part and am now stuck about where to go from here. May I have a hint as to what to do next?
I'm assuming that I have to jump above the boulder. If that's true, will you tell me the jumps?
[Edit] Hold up a minute, Mark. I have an idea. Be back soon!

[Edit] Got i! Yea! Thanks, again, Mark. This level was really fun and a great tribute to Lillie.

If Lillie's "Inspector Gadget" then your "The Gadgeteer Mark".
Love these levels with a little bit of everything from a fine box pushing puzzle to the spheres with a twist and a bot ta boot at the end.
Thanks for the level. :D :D :D

This was a very interesting level. The box puzzle was amazing, the prism area need some thinking, but that goob/sphere/boulder puzzle was incredible. Thanks for a great level.

Nice tribute to Lillie, Mark :D
First two rooms were pretty Lillie-ish. I found the goobie puzzle more Marky because I needed a lot of thinking and many restarts to pass it :? (which doesn't mean the first rooms were easy to solve).
Did the final part with the bottie wrong my first time of course :roll: :lol:
Thanks for an ace level :D

Aha! Oho! Woohoo! I did it! :D Loved the box puzzle and the next part (needed the save game option after those two parts though) :lol: . Had to do some real thinking with the goob/sphere/boulder area but by golly I got it! More thinking was required (for me anyway) for the ending with the zbot. Loved it, loved it, loved it!

Great level and thanks for the fun! :D :D

Finally finished this one (with a lot of help of course :lol: )

What a marvellous level Mark.

Very tricky moves needed in every bit of the level, and the ending was so clever. Thanks for the ace puzzlement. :D 8) :D

I liked the box puzzle at the start, well at least the first 3 or 4 times I ran through it, after the 8th time I didn't need to see it anymore. :lol:

Tricky bits everywhere and good fun, thanks Mark.

I know exactly what you mean, Bob. I usually open up the editor and plop down Peegue in the next section. :wink:

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that too, its a nice save feature. :D :D :D

:D Finally the truth has been revealed. I always thought I was the only one who uses the editor as a help to play levels. And to find some hidden things. :wink: :lol:

I don't do it all the time, I only do it when I restart in one spot a gazillion times. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Of course. Me too, especially with big levels. :D

I would never, ever, never admit to doing something like that! :shock:

Of course, I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, I'm just not going to admit to it. :wink: :lol:

Me neither :shock: Image

I must say - this is my fave type of puzzle - moving from room to room instead of not having a clooooo where to go next! Each room was brilliant Markus - you have the most wonderful knack of being about to create mind-boggling puzzles using the minimum amount of objects - that is so very clever! The soko/box puzzle was fab (I must have done it about 30 times no joke :shock: )! The simpleness of the travelator room was fab and the next room was class! 8) I was completely stumpoozled on the last part - then :idea: Salin helped me :lol:

Ace from start to finish - I only wish I had used "less" gadgets in my orig! :D

Brilliant level Mark - muchos thanks :D

Great puzzle Mark. I got the boxes right off the bat but I sure needed the help with all those tramp moves.

I made so many mistakes with this one that my fingers knew how to do those boxes very well. I was really confused also with the end part so I just paused it and stared at it for a bit, then it hit me what had to happen.

Ace puzzle...enjoyed it. Thanx

Wow Mark this was truly awesome!

I was able to solve most of this on my own except the goobie area - drew a blank there :( so I needed your hint, thanks for the nudge. :wink: The rest fell into place now that you opened that box I was in. :lol: :lol:

Thanks for this brain strainer :D :P :D :P

Looked like a walk in the part - except for the humdinger of getting rid of the red sphere. Cool, Thanks!
