Hi Dunc

Nice to see some more levels from you.

I always find yours very challenging.

So far I can't do The Moat I,

but Moat II was much easier for me.
Having struggled so long with I, the second just fell into place.

I'll keep trying with the first one and cry for help in a few days!

Very nice puzzles.

I think I may have done these wrong but I got the gold for both levels!

P.M. on the way...and thanks for my morning brain-tease Dunc!

Wow! Great levels Dunc! Took many tries to work each one out! Finally collected the gold on both levels!

Nice to see you posting levels Dunc! And a couple of winners at that, Great variations of each other and top notch boulder puzzles, glad to say I finished them both. Thanks for the tricky levels.

Found the second one relatively easy. Still need to think a while about No. 1

I can't do either at the mo Dunc - will report back as soon as I have completed one or t'other!

PS: I was in your neck of the woods this weekend - I thought I saw you trecking across the Peak District with Stinky and Loof

OK Dunc - just completed number 2 after much deliberation

Clever tricky dicky sphere puzzle

Now, could you put Miss Quookie down for a minute and help me with numero uno - muchos

I'd like some help with #1 please!

Weeks later I'm still no closer to solving this one.

dunc · Post by **dunc** » Sun Sep 10, 2006 4:43 pm

no. 1 is simply a boulder puzzle, and no. 2 isn't. in no. 1 you need one of the boulders from over the (boulder) bridge, as usual you have to be careful which coins you collect

hope this helps

if not PM me or post again and i'll tell you more

I give up.

I give up.

The solution in both is quite different: which one are you having difficulty with?

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Sun Oct 05, 2014 10:19 pm

And just to make sure - have you noticed that there are two characters in here?

Larryoke · Post by **Larryoke** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 2:40 am

I have both characters on the right side with all the coins collected but can't figure out how to cover the blue button with the second boulder being on the left side.

I have both characters on the right side with all the coins collected but can't figure out how to cover the blue button with the second boulder being on the left side.

One of the versions does not require moving that boulder to the other side at all.

In the other version, a boulder is moved to the other (left) side only AFTER the other boulder is resting on the blue button.

Larryoke · Post by **Larryoke** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 3:27 am

Thanks, I'll go try again

Larryoke · Post by **Larryoke** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 5:50 am

I don't see any way of covering the blue button without having the two spheres next to each other which makes it impossible to get one to the other side.

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 5:55 am

I don't see any way of covering the blue button without having the two spheres next to each other

Yes, next to each other, horizontally (I suspect you have them next to each other vertically), but after that you can push down the one on the left (against the left wall).

You were right, I had them vertically. Sometimes my mind refuses to go up in order to get down. Got the gold, thanks
