This is just something I was fooling around with. I think there may be crickets in this cave, as well. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

WOW, an Excellent level! Once I got started, I couldn't quit until I figured it out. Yes, I did hear the crickets. Cheerful little fellas are they? I liked the looks and liked the challenges! I have now gotten past the point of no return! :shock: 8) :wink:

Loads and loads of fun, Thanks! :D

I don't know where to start with this one. :? :P

Got to get my thinking head on, give me a few hours to do this, the nuts and bolts are a bit rusty. :shock: :lol:

Well, I got started and was doing very nicely thanks.

That is, until a couple of zbots came out of the wall and got me! :twisted:

This must be my day for getting bumped on the head. :roll:

Back to the drawing board, ho hum. :shock: :lol:

This really is a challenge majic1, I must succeed or my sleep will suffer tonight. :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

JEEZE - this was one heck of a level!!!! I have been in the Batcave for what seems like hours :shock: :shock: :shock: A trully excellent level you stinker!

My z-bots were rather untidy in the main room to say the least - but were doing their job - JUST! It was like trying to cross the M25 (busy London road) tring to get through to the conveyors!

The next bit with the house/z-bots was even more daunting for me :twisted:

And then we come to the "point of no return" :shock: :shock: :shock: I was so close to peeping into the Editor.......... but I didn't and made it in the end.

I am exhausted to say the least :shock: :shock: :shock:

One word - BRILLIANT :P Four more words - YOU ARE A STINKER! :twisted:

HA HA - Too bad I'm not as cute as the little stinkers in SW, huh? :lol: :lol: :lol:

It sounds like you did it a little different than planned - not sure if that's easier or harder. But whatever works is what counts!! :D

So here's is a spoiler for the way I did it for anyone interested: (Highlight to read.)
The original plan is to kill off the z-bots in the beginning - (push ice block in water & use one block to guide z-bots into water hole - then push 3 wooden boxes in one upper corner and 3 ice boxes in other corner - onto ice in timer switch areas. This keeps the timer switches going (& sounds like crickets). The 4th ice block is used to put out flames, starting from bottom up; it is then used to push onto conveyor button in conveyor area.

Majic, great puzzle. Must admit that I couldn't have done it without your
"Spoiler". Even then, had trouble with the house Z-bots -- they just wouldn't cooperate, but eventually perseverance paid off :!: :!: :!: Thanks for a great level.

Tasha :lol: :lol:

Finally finished this one Majic1. :shock: :o :shock:

Feel very BATtered! What a challenge this one was. Excellent to work out. But what a stinker at the end. :evil:

Wonderful (but batrifying) fun. I am now completely BATS! :roll:

Liz :D :D

I totally knickknacked this up at the end.

I saw the timer switch for the conveyor, and thought, "Does that work the same way gate switches do?" So I went to find out. Stepped on the timer switch, ran down to the round button, waited for the timer to stop and the conveyor to start, then stepped off the round button.

What happened.... nothing....the conveyor was still going and no way to stop it. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Aw! Now I have to start all over again! :lol: :lol:

I did it!!!! Used the Batmobile and rushed through to where those Robins were. KERPOW!

I've never been so BATrified in my puff!

This was a real toughie, I forgot about the trick you used before and spent most of the time trapping those so and so's at the timer switches.

Where DO you get all these wicked ideas from? :twisted:

Battyfilarious level. :wink: :lol:

Well it took me pretty close to a bat-year to finally complete this one.
I did my usual thing of insisting that the way I was trying to get the
z-bots to do what I wanted them to was the right way. After a bit of failing
in that regard, a light bulb went on and I said to myself "self, try a
little something different". So I did. :lol: :lol:

What a difference that made... I'll have to remember that little trick!
(But I probably won't) :oops:

Another first class level, majic1. All yours are the top of the heap, and
this was no exception.
