New Level (Advanced) - Coin Quest 24

Hi All

Sorry the last one was a bit of a stinker - this one may look bad but it's OK really.

The texture file is the same as for Coin Quest 23 (mountain1). If you don't have it, download it here:

ARGHHHHH, this one is really mean - just as I think things are going my way, I get shot

Did you drink a "mean cocktail" before creating this wonderful level

But I must help poor little Loof, so I´ll keep on trying

This is a real devil of a level - I just get to the stage where I think I'm getting somewhere and suddenly out of nowhere I'm shot down. I'll keep trying.

Wow, this was a tough one to finish! The battle raged on and on but finally the fab 4 prevailed! Excellent challenge , Liz! Thanks!

I manage not to get shot, but since I play with the timer on, just as StinkSam and Loofro are about to head off to the the other side of the islad, time runs out! Back to it then.

Are you sure this is suppose to be better than the last one?!

I thought Quest #23 was much easier!!

I'm still working on this, by the way!

Goodness Liz, this one was a double toughie! Three times I managed to get Loof across the river only to run out of time. I finally turned the timer off and learned what I had to do. Then went back and turned the timer back on. It still took me several tries to finish this one off. I finally managed it with 1:54 minutes left. In all the times I re-started this one, I don't think those nasty mirror men ever moved the same way twice. But I did them all in! YEA! Thanks for the whopper challenge and the fun!

Hi Liz. This was one glorious battle, the first of its kind in Wonderland I bet, It took Fellowship awhile to take down the Orcs, But take them down they did, Another great challenge by the master story teller and level maker. Great job and awesome fun. Thanks so much for all your hard work.

PS The battle field looked fabulous.

I got out with a whopping 4 seconds left! Couldn't stop to read all the signs by the exit, though

Of course, I had a huge score since I managed a nifty 250 points for each fire stinker and I did kill each and every one of them!!!!

Muhahahahaha

I killed all the enemies, too! After moving the fellowship around different ways, I found there was a pattern to killing them off.

I let Loof exit before allowing Stinky across, so then I had to restart. Then I pushed a box the wrong way. Finally, I was able to get the gold star!

Looking forward to the next challenge!

A few people have asked me for a solution to this one, so here it is:

SPOILER

Start with Qookie:
Go left to cover, then right to starting position.

Peegue:
Go right, then left to starting position.

Stinky:
Push right box down 1, then left box down 1. Repeat this once more.
Push right box down 1, then stand to the right of the box. The shadows will shoot each other so only 1 is left. Move 1 more step down and the last one blows up at the barrel.
Now get Stinky to push the right box down until it’s in line with the Loof shadows.
Stand left of the box and they shoot each other, leaving one.

Loof:
Push box down until it’s in line with the shadow. Stand left of the box and move 2 left, 1 right, 2 down, 1 left. The shadow blows up at the barrel.

Qookie:
Push her right box down 1, then left down 1. Repeat this once more.
Push right box down1, then stand to the right of the box. 1 shadow left.
Push the right hand box 1 space left and walk Qookie back up to the top to wait.

Peegue:
Push left box 1 down, then right 1 down. Repeat this once more.
Push left box 1 down. Stand left of box. 1 shadow left. 2 spaces down, and the shadow is blown up at the barrel. Stand Peegue to the right of a steel box.

Qookie:
Walks down until her shadow blows up at the top barrel.

Pick up all remaining coins. Qookie and Peegue can exit.

Loof crosses river on the transporter. Blows up barrel with boulder and collects coins. Puts metal box on transporter and sends it back for Stinky. Stinky pushes the box up or down off transporter and crosses the river. They exit.

Thanks, Liz. I needed your hint to get started. Dangerous level. But lots of fun fighting the red army

i don't think i've ever been as scared as when i first moved!

i haven't done it yet, (but i'm not going to read your spoiler either

) i definitely need more time, so i hope you don't mind, but it's about to be 15 mins on the clock for me

ETA done it now, in under 3 mins.

excellent level!

I would never have got this without that spoiler Liz. And even with it I had to do it 3 times, kept getting more than one Stinker left for some reason. It was a relief when they'd all gone and I could stop hiding behind boxes.

I'm loving these Coin Quests.
