House of horror

Beware of ghosts. Hints in the caption, this isn't an easy one.

      Not easy... perhaps. But thematically interesting, logically puzzling, and rewarding to solve? Yes! :) (And yes, I'm aware that I wasn't able to keep up the parallelism. ;))

      Really great level! Little bit hidden but... what should we expect of a house with ghosts at night? :D
      Very well designed ideas, very fun. Thanks!

      No clue and that's with the hints. :(

      EDIT - Hint 2 - Can't get R out? I tried spinning the ball off the slider and timing the ball drop with R going down the steps - nothing.

      @gmacpro it's very cool. Tell us where are you stuck and we can help you with more explicit hints. :thumbsup:

      Cancel last - using wrong slider :eek: - Proceeding ....
    • gmacpro
      I got R out and aimlessly started sliding and popping stuff out and said "How long do I want to spend on this hidden level?" I spent long enough - Game Over!
    • Block builder
      @gmacpro Too bad. :(
      After zapperbot left the building, pull up the slider so the ball falls. Then pull down the slider, not too slow, something will pop out. After that, pull up both bottom sliders, and another path that leads inside the house is enabled.

      Didn’t click with this one. Wasn’t sure what was intentional and what wasn’t, which is frustrating. Top R often activated himself. Is that what is meant by ghosts? Didnt like the lower level ball/motor/zap thing which could block R. Rest of level was clever and i like the other path.
    • Block builder
      @ridgerunner Block R? Did it fall by itself?
      I tried to design only 1 possible path to avoid uncertainty.
    • gmacpro
      @Block builder - Did all that minus the last "another path that leads inside".
    • Block builder
      @gmacpro I forgot to mention a step.
      There's a slider on the white floor which seems to do nothing. When you pull it out, it however enables the doorway on the other side.
    • ridgerunner
      @Block builder ...the “thing” fell by itself most times i played. Top R activated himself twice.
    • gmacpro
      @ridgerunner - @Block builder - I agree - the lower one fell every time until I got R out before it fell and the top one fell once or twice thanks to the other zapperR.
    • chemi
      @ridgerunner is it possible you are pushing a ball without your knowledge? I had to restart couple of times to understand the origin of the ball that activated top zapper. :rolleyes:
    • ridgerunner
      @chemi . “Pushing a ball” I dont think so , as the twice it happened, i had not got B as far as the long set of steps. I thought that B ascending these steps was the trigger for the ball release by using his head.

  • The ball has two purposes. A slider should keep it in place for purpose 1, after which it may fall towards purpose 2.
    The first purpose has to do with the lower Zapperbot. For B to be able to go up, Zapperbot must leave his starting area.
    It seems B can't just enter the house, there must be another way, and it's the second purpose of the ball.
    You can open up something with the ball, which enables a path. Note the red brick inside. Please consider that sliders may block the path if they are in the wrong position.
