Title: Catwoman Puzzle
Post by Catwoman on 27.08.2008 at 01:50:03
I've started building a mansion and would appreciate some reviews since this is my first attempt at building one. This is a small puzzle area. And I'm going for an easy difficulty. So please help me improve.

Hi Catwoman,

Thanks for jumping in to build a new mansion! You're doing great. Just a couple things. In 18299, at the top right, if Jack goes into the next room on the right and then comes back, he doesn't have time to react to the small brick, and falls to his death. In an easy mansion, that's a cheap death. Also, when you finish your mansion, make sure to put some kind of wall at the borders around the mansion so Jack doesn't try to walk off into infinity (he disappears but never gets anywhere).

I ended up with a red key that didn't seem to go anywhere, but I'm assuming you're still building and it will be used later?

I have all the same remarks:

Almost all "end rooms" are not terminated properly so Jack walks out of the rooms but there's no room he can walk into.
Noticed the cheap death, too....in fact it's so cheap that I died there 3 times.   ;)

And what is the red key for ?

Apart from these minor quibbles:  It's always great to see new designers comin' up!!  Go ahead and build, build, build and very quickly you'll gain the experience and then I'm sure you'll design more wonderful mansions.

And if there's one thing we never have enough of....it's new mansions, obviously !!   ;)

Thanks so much for the input Semi-Native and aquaMat.  :)

I will fix the issue with the cheap death and make sure my end rooms are bricked in. Yes, the red key is for later.

This isn't the actual start area. My goal is to have around 80 rooms.

Yay for Catwoman! That's a really good start. I liked how you had to figure out how to get to the yellow door, the obvious path wasn't the solution.

And thanks for doing an EASY mansion! We've got lots of hard ones, so it's nice to have more choices   :)

Oh great, Catwoman !

I wasn't aware that this was a "work in progress" !!

I'm looking forward to seeing the complete mansion !

Thanks Josephine.

And I'll admit I didn't know the rooms had to be terminated. Something I had not noticed while playing. :)
