Dan: All newer levels have a downloadable "original" solution that you can check to see if you've cooked it. (This one is too old to have an original solution.) But for this level there are lots of comments indicating that this is the intended solution! I guess this level has that problem of "feeling" cooked even if you solve it right, oh well. =)

Cook: Well, I didn't have to deal with the last two lasers or the last five blocks, because I was able to use every single block up to that point and approach the exit from below. It's not clear whether the author intended this (and the extra pieces were just distractors) or whether he thought one of the blocks had to be stuck in a corner and useless.

Alright. I thought, that could be a possibility. I tried to check the original solution, but there wasn't one for this level.

3915 Blockhead Max (61) Sun 14 Aug 2005 17:00 SPOILER

Sorry Doom, but that's not a cook! It's the only way to solve the puzzle (see below).

Cook: Left 3 blocks in the upper right area unused.

Yes, Tom, you got it. The right entrance is impossible.

139 Blockhead Tom 7 (1) Fri 03 Dec 2004 10:43 SPOILER

I entered the exit from the bottom; between the two lasers that block it. Is this right? I believe that the right entrance must be impossible to use...

This was a simple and enjoyable level to solve.
