Ball's Chess

No tricks, pure logic!! The ball must roll to the red brick - you win! You need to think many moves ahead, so it reminds me of chess. Good luck friends.

      I think that after winning this level, many people will have a question: "how did the win block work?" I would like to answer this question for everyone. After winning, see the demo card:

      You can put an eye instead of a zapoer - it will have exactly the same effect!! The eye and zapper have a lot of similar physics. The only difference is lightning.

      Blocks that do not affect the win block:
      eye, zapper, vertical slider and stars!!!
      , provided that the wine block is STATIC!!! If the win block can potentially move - then the eye and zapper can work under certain circumstances!

      Incredible! At first i think "where is the logic part, i can push any ball i want" then after all ball pushed, there's one ball left. I confused so i had to look at the end of your vs. And i realized that i push the ball in wrong order, my last ball isn't near the pillar! I had to restart it again and i managed to win:cool: i wonder how the ball can trigger the win:eek: thanks for the amazing stuff my friend @Denis Nazin :thumbsup:

      Excellent!

      This is crazy good knowledge, I saved the mechanism for my future level :D:D thankyou my friend @Denis Nazin

      @Denis Nazin your editor must differ from mine - if I try to put a star on a win block it won't let me.

      But have you tried a win block ontop of another? It's the fastest game ever!
    • cimarronline
      @Denis Nazin You can also put an upright or sideways stair on the win block without triggering it.
    • Denis Nazin
      @Chris Hester My friend, you are absolutely right! In the mekorama application, it is impossible to put a star on a win block! I, like you, can't do it.
      BUT!!! There is another app that can do this. Here is the link - https://mekostudio.com/3dbuilder/.
      You can turn z sideways and upside down in this app!;)

      @anomalli Excellent. I am very glad that my demo is useful to you. There are many more ways to activate the win block. If the bot falls on the metal or crashes into it from the side .... And there are other options. I'll try to make more demos for my friends.;)
    • Denis Nazin
      @cimarronline Thank you very much my friend. I did not know that. I experimented with wedges - it doesn't work. That's why I didn't try the stairs. The ladder and wedge have similar physics. It turns out not always. Thanks!!!:thumbsup:;)

      Great fun... I like the way of thinking... Needed two tries to get it... Great stuff... Thanks for sharing...

      I love that, :D:D! Just a bit of thought to plan which ball needs to win, then B is off running around and pushing balls.
      The finish is very clever, :thumbsup::rotf:.

      @Denis Nazin I had to try out different ideas with the win block on a pole, so I remade your win mechanism...

      What I found was that the zapper would end the level instantly if the slider, FD or silver block under the ball were omitted! I also noted that all sides of the win block flash when you win, as if electricity is going through it from the zapper!

      I still don't understand why this effect happens. (How do you find out these things!) Anyway, here is my remade version:

      @anomalli @BLR @Chris Hester @FXCX @cimarronline @RonaldN @Jom You can come up with a huge number of options with this effect. I promised some more demos. Here they are :

      Any non-static block can trigger the effect!!
      The legs of the bots have no weight, so they can walk freely on metal without causing any effect. For the bot to cause an effect, its body must be in contact with the iron.
