New Level (Advanced) - Coin Quest 45

The Elves have decided to join in the Battle against the spreading evil from Moredread. Reinforcements arrive at Helm Castle.

This level uses the Mountain1 texture again, and the Helm Castle models used in a couple of earlier levels.

What a great level! I love the way you use the new stuff to add to the story line. I'll admit I had to Alt-X and zoom out so I could watch my elves moving around. :oops:

Another excellent level. The Elves have been a great help guarding the castle.
Thanks for the fun :D

Good one Liz! I was wondering how I was going to get my reinforcements into their respective battlements of this particular bastille!

Never thought of Alt X, Loirae's so clever, saves a lot of switching back and forth time...still, we're ready for the assault (I hope).

Thanks,

I started by just moving around, with no planning, but I realized some precise strategy was needed. It still took me numerous times, but was enjoyable to work out.

Great work, as usual! Thanks!

Will report back once my quest has been achieved 8)

Hi Liz, awesome level! I am missing something here! I can move the lower sphere to get the two spheres in Loof's section in place but then I can't use it to open the red gate. If I use it to open the gate first then I can't get the other two in place. If I have the red gate open I can get the elves to their places. I know Qookie has to be able to move around so she can't be the one to open the red gate. I think I have lost my mind on this one so a little help please! I just know it is something simple I am missing. :oops: Thanks!

Hi Donna - and anyone else who needs some help. Sorry if this is a bit of a stinker, I didn't mean it to be.


SPOILER/WALKTHROUGH


1 Qookie jumps to the red button via the trampos. L L U R L

2 Loof stands on pink button to open gates for 1st elf.

3 Qookie moves elf by stepping on the conveyors. Look carefully at the conveyors - the direction the arrow points shows the direction the shadow will move.

4 Move left and right to pick up coins then move the elf up to the dark blue button. This opens the gates for the next elf. Loof steps off the pink button to prevent the 1st elf from moving.

5 Qookie moves the next elf to collect the coins and get up to the position above the white button. Loof steps on the pink button and Qookie moves the elf into place.

6 Loof steps off the pink button and goes left to pick up the bonus coin and step on the conveyor button so that Qookie can get off the conveyors.

7 Qookie pushes the lower blue sphere L D R. Then jumps over the far right trampo and stands above the blue sphere.

8 Loof stands on the pink button. Qookie pushes the blue sphere down, then she moves up to the wall (making sure the elves are still in place).

9 Loof gets off the pink button and pushes the left wooden box up into the water and collects one bonus coin from that area.

10 Finally, use both characters to manoever the last wooden box into the right-hand water. Collect 3 bonus coins from top right. EXIT.


Hope this helps. :D

Thanks for the spoiler, Liz! Maybe not a duh moment but I definitely had a mindset about Qookie! It was actually much easier to control the elves the way you intended! I am happy to report that both heroes made it out thanks to the help of the elves! Great level!

Thanks for the spoiler Lizzie Dripping!!! I sure needed it :shock: I found this pretty hard - even with the walkthrough :lol: :lol: :lol: Played it in Alt X in the end as I could see the elves' movements better that way!

Thanks Toots - a very clever level - looked faberoony as per norm 8)
