    Has anyone beaten level 51 yet? I'm probably missing something obvious but I'm absolutely stumped.

    +1 for Level 50. The level reminds me of the climactic scene in Thelma & Louise! LOL!

    Level 51 is probably the cleverest puzzle I encountered in this game so far. The solution is fairly straightforward. Here are 3 hints (progressively obvious):

    Hint #1.
    No fancy escalator build needed. All blocks are stacked squarely on top of each other at all times during the climb.

    Hint #2.
    Only 2 columns of blocks are needed to be constructed for the climb.

    Hint #3.
    Use the wall to prevent your tower from tipping over as you climb up. Progressively construct an upside-down L that is 2-blocks wide, with long edge away from the wall. The wall will block it from tipping off. At all times, you are stand on top of the upside-down L.

    Man - got up early this morning to watch a young Scottish chap play a tennis final in Melbourne and PeteOzzy and Metalcasket have only gone and ruined it. Well done, though.

    This has to be my favourite thread I've seen in a very long while, so much positivity and enthusiasm - definitely reminds me why I still check the Appstore at 4am!

    How can I not buy this now? Downloading and very much looking forward to it :D I'm hoping the developer comes across this soon and sees the reaction their games has had!

    yep - future classic in the making. It's the only game that's stopped me playing Particle Mace. Absolutely beautiful stuff. I really hope it takes off - it's a touch screen gem.

    Martin,

    Congrats on releasing such a fine puzzle game.

    Just curious, I completed Level 84 only by "sacrificing" the cart. Is it possible to complete the level WITHOUT sacrificing the cart (that is, not dropping it down the bottom of the pit) by turning it into a bridge instead? While my solution works, it feels unsatisfactory.

    *I am asking the question openly since I don't think the question will spoil the puzzle because the solution lies in how you make the cart and not how the cart is disposed afterward.

     
  20. Yes :)
