Pandora's Box

B and R found the dreaded Pandora's Box. Don't worry. They won't be opening it. I present to you these 4 particularly thin puzzles. **multiple tricks required**

      @Makl - How hidden is this level? I see areas where passages go inside and since I will not waste my time with hidden lets get that on the table now.
    • Makl
      @Meko Guy I tried my best to mark hidden things or make them visible to the best of my ability.
      Things that are too difficult to see because of shadows have fence walls nearby them to give a clue.
      I dont like hidden attributes without clues.

      **edit** I am glad you asked first though. It will probably improve your perspective of the level.

      @Makl - Thanks - I'll progress but I'm not good with clues so we'll see (get it?)

      @Makl - I don't play levels that require luck either.

      I got all the way to the end and I was missing a ball - I needed to use MekoStudio to find it. Just like yesterday - why the traps in such a complex level? You finally figure out the 1st leg only to make a small error and you get to restart. Each leg is a level itself and even looking ahead can be challenging as it's obscure. Why not build a level so one can progress thru it? If you make a mistake, then no biggy, let the player try something at that point instead of a simple and annoying RESTART.

      Again, after too many restarts, I set up a recovery point from my last error and continued from there. This way, I could make all the mistakes I wanted and just restart on that leg. I couldn't imagine restarts from scratch after each screw up as that would take all day. This level is winnable but one needs a lot of time to win thanks to the restarts and then THE HIDDEN. I gave up after I found the hidden ball.

      @Meko Guy So you think that this level would be improved if each face of the box had a recovery point?
    • Makl
      Also! There is ample opportunity to avoid every trap in this level.
    • Makl
      @Meko Guy also, are you implying that this level requires any degree of luck?

      Sorry I should have condensed this into one comment. Haha
    • Meko Guy
      @Makl -
      Easy to say when you created the level. You better know how to avoid them.

      I'm still very angry about that ball. The level was extremely challenging even with it in plain sight. Anyway - I'm done - moving on.

      Enjoyable challenge. I used a different method of getting B on R for the second time on first face and I didn’t use the long stair ,with the R trap at the end, at all. I don’t think the level needed the hard to see ball as it was not in keeping with the rest of the level.
    • Makl
      @ridgerunner Thank you! I only made the stairs there as long as I did for appearance sake. The idea was really to NOT use that part. I hope that wouldn't be a red herring. It's a trap, afterall. Haha

      Also, the hard to see ball was there from when I made the first face... I initially had a totally different plan for the level but by the time I realized that wasn't happening, I had already boxed everything in and I really didnt want to undo that..
