Working on this one Chip!

It's really good fun, and very inventive.
I've practised so long that my timing is perfect on the first 3 games, but I hit a brick wall when it comes to the puzzle. I thought I had a cunning plan but the blasted box didn't get blasted but escaped.

Back to the drawing board and back later ...

Hi Anne
Thanks for your encouraging comment.

It's great to have you and so many other players aboard.
Amnon and I will do our best to keep up the fun...

Nice puzzle Chip. It took a few minutes to figure out how to destroy the box at the top but aftyer that things went fine.

Thanks for a fun one.

Well I have to admit defeat on this one.
I just can't solve the Blast-a-Box puzzle at the top.
And then I foresee major problems with that last box.

Could someone give me a hint for the top box puzzle please?

I just can't solve the Blast-a-Box puzzle at the top.

Hint: It's not the barrel and prism that do the trick: that box is destroyed by neither fire nor explosion!

Hi Liz

1. Did you ever try to go back to the previous puzzle?
2. Oh, oh! Bad things can happen there...

Good luck.

Thanks all for your hints.

Bob helped me too and his way worked for me, which was a slight variation of what I was doing and failing with. Thanks Bob

Then it took quite a few more tries to work out the final one-life box.

Finally got out with the gold.

Excellent fun Chip - very clever timing.

Thanks for the video Chip! If only I'd thought of that easy way to get rid of the top box.

I hope Bob doesn't mind me telling, but this is how we did it:

Put the prism on the conveyor button, the barrel on the left green button and the box on the right conveyor. Ride across the conveyor below, and voila, the box is blown up.
I was going wrong because I put the box on the left conveyor so it always ran away instead of getting blown.
The bonus coins can be collected by sliding across from the stopped conveyor.

I think I like the blast the keg, the box and the prism solution better. Lots of stuff blows up.
