Title: Shortcut(s)
Post by Toybox on 25.02.2007 at 22:19:41
There comes a trick which, had I known before, I would certainly have included in Infernal Runner [smiley=evil.gif] It is, indeed, possible to finish with 1000$. No use of layer 6 whatsoever.

Jesting aside, what do you think of this? A cheap way to save up keys or a possible Jack-Stuck factory?

It's not a real mansion, just a single room to point out a source of possible trouble.

You may want to play it in the editor BTW - I had to restart playing a few times until I reached the money, it is much faster in the editor ::)

I really got to do it again. When I am not making "important" posts on the boards. But your time of 7 seconds feels like a hint. Somehow. 8-)

I don't get it... how do you get through the 2nd door?  :o Another one of ToyBox's outrageously tricky puzzles. Wow... ToyBox is like just the right nickname for a puzzle maker!  ;) Hint?

Not a puzzle, really. I could give this hint: nothing is hidden at all. What you see is all that there is. That's why I allow you to play in the Editor: there's no secret to be given away. Jack only needs swift reflexes.

Now here comes the solution (even though it still remains difficult to carry out): SOLUTION-> Open the first door, then quickly jump onto the bottom part while it is still lowering, and from there jump over the other (closed) door. <-SOLUTION

I will leave this here for another couple of hours and I will post the answer in proper colour in the evening (German time). Don't waste too much time with this room though.

I knew that was the solution but an oldie like me is not fast enough  ::)

Actually you may need luck more than reflexes. Still, do you believe it is worth mentioning as a source of potential Jack-Stucks in some mansions?
