Hi Liz,

I know what black & white & red all over. :wink:
But I can't sort out all those boxes without getting Kaboomed! :shock:

EDIT:

I appreciate all your help Liz.
Wouldn't have crossed the finish line without you. :D

I was doing everything the wrong way at the wrong time. :roll:
What an imagination you have to conjure up something so grand! 8)

Mucho Thanx :wink:

I didn't mean for this level to be such a stinker as it turned out to be :lol:

Mark has very kindly made this video solution for anyone who wants to watch how this level should be played. Thanks so much Mark! :D :D

Must admit to having to watch the video, Lizzie. Got the beginning portion on my own & even trapped the one Kaboom but then didn't do the right thing with the rest of the boxes & the sphere so ended up stuck :evil: :evil: This was an excellently designed level & just wish I could have solved it myself. Great answer to the riddle too :!: :!:

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: Oh, that would've been SO much easier!!!

Would you belive I actually left the two walkers around and then tried to avoid them and time my run through the gates when they were walking on those buttons. No wonder I died about 100 times in that last room! I was pretty rpoud of myself for actually getting it done, but now I feel a bit silly for taking the hadest possible path. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:D :D :D Daaaaangy Liz! That was a humdinger and I must admit, I had to look at the video, I don't think I would have got this one on my own.

Top notch box pushing puzzle. Thanks for the ace fun. :D :D :D

Loopy! You nutcase! :lol: :lol: :lol: Wow, you certainly should feel proud of yourself if you made it out under those circumstances. Well done for finding an alternative solution - but then you didn't get your nickname for nothing!

Took an age to sort this one out and trap the kabooms where I needed them but eventually the gold was ours!

I haven't seen the video yet but I'm curious to see if I did it the intended way :wink:

BTW, aren't they dark blue, not black :? :D

Thanks Liz!

I have done this one before, but I forgot it all, so I just did it again.

The number of boxes is sufficient, but not a single box is extra, so think carefully where you want to place them.

I've BEEN thinking carefully! LOL for a few days now :O:O I'll keep tryin :roll: I know it's just a matter of placement. do I use one of the bottom boxes to block the boomer on white? and the other shot over to the red button? If that's right just a hint as to which side to start with would be great!! :piraterolleyes:

Yes, you are correct about the white and red buttons.
You start with a path upwards from the right side.
