Two days I've been trying to get through the gallery with no success. I'm so sick of Tex saying "well that won't work" as I'm fried on the electric floor. I have tried the code that you use to bypass a puzzle but it doesn't work and I looked up other posts and no help there.

Could someone send me a save game or tell me how I can get around this thing?? <img border="0" alt="cry" title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" /> Thanks for any help, guys.

Hi Doreen:

I played this a long time ago and had the same problem with getting fried. Someone sent this message to me so try this ...

When you jump down, go stand by the pillars. Watch the floor change colors 4 or 5 times. Don't move while this is happening. When the whole floor turns dark, run fast straight, turn to your left, and keep running straight to the stairs. You're safe there and you can take a breather. Now watch the floor change again. When it's all dark run like crazy again back the way you came only keep going straight. Watch for the door on your left hand side. I remember after just a few tries I got it this way. Hope this works for you. Good luck!

Debbie

Yup, this is probably the most aggravating puzzle in the game. Here's how I solved it, but I'm going from memory here. Look at the "test map"
and hit the "print screen" button on the keyboard. Exit the game, start up a graphics program like Paint or Micosoft Photo Editor, open a new document and hit ctrl-V to paste in the image. Printing it out will help when you restart the game. Look at the "test map" and figure out the sequence of moves to get through, and mark it up for reference once you start. Once you hit the test button on the wall, the floor tiles deenergize in a pattern. You can then jump down to the floor. You have to move around on the deenergized tiles to make it through. Once you get to a safe area position yourself to move to the next safe area, and watch the floor tiles to know when to move. Also there's a keyboard key to RUN when moving (shift I think?). This is one place where its useful. Sorry, but this is an arcade style puzzle that no walkthrough can do more than give you some stratagy ideas. Also save your games along the way so you don't have to redo everything everytime.

Thanks all for your help. Once again Gameboomers came through. thumbsup
MaG, I read the thread about Joanie and found a new way to get past the puzzle, alt/f. Never heard of that, just 911.

Thanks again for you kind help. wave
