Title: Disco of Doom
Post by nancygevans on 13.05.2007 at 02:01:44
Hi - I have reached room 20906 in DofD. I can get the purple key in the lower left, and I can get up into the upper left where the plate turns off the zappers, but I can't figure out where to go out of the room. If I exit on the floor elevator with the purple dot, I end up back a ways in the game. But I can't find a new purple door to open or where to go that's new. Help!!

And thanks, Nancy

Hi Nancy,

thanks for playing DoD !!
There is an exit from room #20906....it is hidden a bit but you should be able to find it.
You did everything in the "correct order" (= entered from the right, picked up the purple key and proceeded to the top left, where you switched of the zappers).

To not spoil the fun completely, I will only give you this hint: I do not expect you to get back down again.....!

Now try it again.....    :) ;)

I'm stuck and don't know where to go. Sorry-but I don't know how to locate room numbers, so I'll try to describe.  Jack's had his fifth save and has climbed up the grey column and up a rope into a green area. I've completed that area and can't find any new area to go to. Travelling to the far left takes me to the area where I jump up the skulls and can climb up a ladder under a flag back to an area where I've already been.  Travelling to the far right takes me to a green brick which has activated a sliding double brick to a new area, but there doesn't seem to be any way to get to the sliding brick. Where do I go now?

Hi val and welcome on the boards.  While we wait for aquaMat to answer your question, the way to locate room numbers is to press command - d

Hi val (and welcome to our forum !)

Thanks for playing Discotheque Of Doom, first of all.

I assume you are talking about room #20505 (there should be a green door at the far right ??), and you have already noticed how to activate the green moving platform.

If I should guess what your problem is: I assume you keep dying, everytime you try to jump onto that platform, right ?!

If this is your problem there IS a solution for it. It's a little "trap" I put up, a little "trick".... but  - even though I guess most readers of these boards do know the solution already - I'm still somewhat reluctant to give it away openly (to not spoil the fun for others).

But I'll give you a hint:  while jumping the "absolute height" is more important as the distance ....!! (These might not be the correct "mathematical terms" I'm using here..... that kind of stuff is discussed elsewhere in these pages; but it should give you an idea of and / or a hint to the solution to this little puzzle !!)

Now, please.... go back and try again !  I'm sure you'll find out.....

Hi AquaMat

Thanks for the advice. Well, I read the hint and tried again, to no avail. Maybe I'm being particularly dense, but I'm just not getting it. :'( Maybe you could email me off-list with a solution? I just keep dying
