Rivendell

Frodo and Samwise are exploring Rivendell before they will leave with the fellowship tomorrow. They are haunted by the ring. Hopefully the ring doesn't make them break things.

Low ceiling / claustrophobia

Spoiler: Tower mechanic

Whenever I was recording, the tower did not want to fall in its own after the ball was pushed. But it always falls if the ball is pushed and B stands next to the tower.

Spoiler: Video

Looks great and the tower always did what it is meant to do instantly for me. I didn’t need to use the draggable at 42 seconds. Loved the burrowing path of headless R.

Very cool level. Thank you!
I didn't use the slider at the bottom built into the wall

@ridgerunner @Denis Nazin you must have been able to tap really quickly with bots moving in an overly narrow space. That's too annoying for me...

loved the design with logic as always! those house designs are new to me.

It made me think more than I expected at first & that's great ... great logic & beautiful design... thanks for sharing @Block builder

Excellent!

game of throne refference?

The level looks great, really good use of stylistic pieces and water, and the tower mechanism is really cool! I like the little implied story too, it adds an element of fun to the level, and the level style matches the LOTR Rivendell scenes well. I found the video very entertaining, it's a fun sequence of events. Especially the tower! It didn't fall for me at that place in the level, but it's really cool to see large draggable props play a part in the puzzle.

I chose to give up on the level so I won't rate it. There were too many possible bot paths - maybe I'm bad at predicting how to route bots - but it was easy to get a bot stuck and the level has a long intro that takes a long time to get back to your original place to see if you made a mistake. The paths are also obscured by the house roofs making it frustrating for me.

@shultz I can understand your experience and I'm glad you can appreciate the level. Thank you for your comment.

Totally awesome adventure . Needed a little help from the VS so thank you for including it ...loved all the under water pathways. Thanks for the challenge

Nice cute level.
It felt tight everywhere while playing but i thought well, this is about herding R & L bot so in the end it was fine.

Well-written gameplay plot in a meticulously made diorama. I downloaded this card several weeks ago but haven't played it as it looks difficult and intricate. I made it. The capture of a star with headless R was surprising and hilariously occured.

Spoiler: interaction with the level

I have nearly thrown in the towel because L fell into different traps as I'm having difficulty managing my companion bots. When I was about to finish the level by sending both L and R at the bottom, they failed to nudge the ball. I tampered with it in mekostudio instead of quitting, and made a recovery card. Less honorable, I know, but it also led me to discover that the L bot was finally added to studio! Many thanks

@cloe Thank you for your persistence and nice review. Just played it myself again and that ball was not nudged! Don't think this ever happened before...
