seq-o-ban bis [browser]
Marcos Donnantuoni has made a new and longer version of his puzzlescript puzzler Seq-O-Ban. Can you stick all the dice together to form a sequence 1,2,3,etc ? (Z-key to undo a move, R-key to restart a level)
Noticed a link to a "hard" mode version, so of course I started in, still playing on my Kindle. Not too bad until I hit level 12. Took two days to do levels 12 and 14, having to restart after every mistake, plus the occasional accidental screen swipe. If there's a way to access the keyboard in full screen mode on a Kindle Fire, someone please tell me! However, another nice set of seq-o puzzles. Thanks to Marcos.
How did you get past hard level 11? The 4 is stuck between the walls and I can't figure it out how to get it... breaking my mind on this one :-) Cool game, kept me busy :-D
Level 11, hard version: You have to raise the "4" out of its slot with "1-2-3" combined (in a row); then slide the "5" over. Good luck. Wait till you tackle level 12!
I'd appreciate some help with (original) Level 11, the one that has 1-5-3-2-4 in a diagonal line. Everything I've tried ends up either with the 5 in a hole at the left and the 4 stuck on the right, or everything stuck in various corners.
@Unknown above: for normal level 11, first go left to get the 5 and 1 set up, then head right to put the 2 and 3 together. Lastly you push the 4 from right to left to join everything.
Here are the sequences for normal levels 9-11 because they gave me the most trouble:
***SPOILER***
Normal 9: R D R3 U L D L2 U R D2 U R2 D L D2 L U R U2 L R D2 L U2 R2 U L2
Normal 10: R U2 D2 L U L U D R2 U L U2 L3 D R U R2 D U L2 D R U R D L D2 R2 L2 U2 R D2
Normal 11: L U L U2 L D L D R D R U R D R2 D R D L D L U R U2 L D L U R2 D3 L U2 R U L3
Thanks a lot, Joel! Now I'm halfway through Hard Mode (at the point where it actually gets hard imo), and I'll have to leave it till I've got a lot more time.
Started hard the other day and got stuck on level 9. But just figured it out- they always look simple afterwards, lol. Here are the moves in a better format if anyone needs them:
***SPOLIER***
Key: n[j](f) DIR sss, DIR sss, ... n = block number you push [j] = blocks joined to n (a) = free blocks that also move DIR = direction you push, U D L or R sss = number of spaces you push
Hard 9: 3(1) D one 4(2) D one 4 L two, R one, U two 3 R one 1 D one 3 U two, R two 3[2] L two 4 D two 4[32] D one, L one, D one
Is there anyone who has solved level 14? It's been driving me crazy for days now... I suppose you need to make a combination of 4-3-2 and then 1 on top of 2 to liberate the 4 from between the walls, but I cannot get the 3 and the 1 past the 2 at the same time... What a game :-)
Yeah this was a fun puzzle game! Came back tonight and finished up the hard levels- 12 and 14 were tricky. Sequences for those if anyone needs them:
***SPOILERS***
Key: push # [joined to #'s] (that also moves #'s) THIS DIR. this far, THIS DIR. this far, ...
Hard 12: 3 U one 4 L four 1 D one 4 R one 4(1) R one 4 U one 1 R one 4 D one 3 D one, R one, U one 4 L two 3 D one, R one, D one, R one 4 R one, U two 1(3) L three 1 D one 3[21] R two 4 D two 4[321] U one 1[234] L one, U two
Hard 14: 5 D two, L one 2 R one 3(51) U one 1 L one 5(3) D one 2 D three 1 R one, U two, L one 2 U three 3(5) U two 5 L one 3 D two 2 D three 5 R two, U one 2 U one, L one, U one, L one 3 U one 5 D four, L one 2 R two, U one 5(3) U two 3 L one 5 D two 2 D three 3 R one, U one, L one 1 R one 2 U one, L one, U two 3[21] D one 1[23] L one 1[234] R one 2[134] U one 5 U three, L two
Good addition to original levels. Also, design nicer. Did this on my Kindle with no undo. Remind me never to try that again!

ReplyDeleteThank you, that worked! But oh my god, level 12... give me a few days :-D
ReplyDeleteYessss, did it. Level 12 Hard in 1h15. Awesome game... :-)
ReplyDeleteI think it's level 11 (not Hard) that I'm stuck on - + for background and X for wall -
ReplyDelete++++
+++4+
XX1+2
(under 1)+3+++
X++++
I'm sure I have to start by moving 2, not 3, but after that I think I've tried everything and no dice.
I was wrong, that was level 10 and I solved it eventually. Now I've run out of time, so level 11 will have to wait.
