One other thing to watch out...Thanks
Sun Aug 22, 2004 12:46 am
After I had finished playing a game. I clicked on restart so I could try again.
But instead of restarting my game. It sent the score. So, if you are using Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3 for this game.
That is at least the second time that has happened to me. And I know I definitely clicked on the restart button, not the submit score button.
Most of the time the restart button will work right, but no always.
I have let Neopets now about this intermittent restart bug through the feed back area for that game. Along with the name of the browser I am using when I had that happen.
Thanks.
For some of the levels if the solutions provided don't work, chances are you have a mirrored level

Neopets makes me download stuff for Mozilla so I just use IE. Mozilla I use for when I create my layouts, that's it.
I found that a lot of things on neopets doesn't work on Mozilla...

I've encountered a different glitch when using both Explorer and Opera.
If you try and Minimize the game window while playing it will end your game. Happens to me every time.
If you just click on an open window behind the game window, so that the game window minimizes itself, then the game is fine.
It's what happens on my computer, and I'm interested in finding out if this happens to other people too.

It's amusing how a website with such a large audience can't cater to all browsers. 
I would like to know how to tell if a level is mirrored..
Sun Aug 22, 2004 6:58 pm
It would be nice to now in which basic area the final "die" is in that game (I know it wouldn't help much if it is the exact center).
I am making the assumption that when the strategies that I have seen on here for the later levels (for me above 10) then don't work, I am assumming that it is a mirrored level.
Or it could just me mixing up left and right (I am better than I used to be with that though).
Thanks.

I'm not sure, but the only mirrored level i have come across is level 2. Correct me if i'm wrong others...
However, it is easy to lose track of where you are in the game, You may want to print out the guide for your ease. When i wrote these guides, i had confirmation that they were working. But... to be safe, i'll check again later today

I have the guide printed...

But in Level 15 the steps I have do not seem to work. I printed the guide yesterday, after the post included the one mirrored level.
And I am using the information from the latest strategy guide post.
This is what I got from that guide for level 15.
3 Left
2 Up
5 Right
1 Up
1 Down
2 Left
1 Up
Or did one of my browsers eat a step? (LOL) Thanks.
The final die to match for me on this level has been in the upper left corner. But I can't get to it because I can't match a die over on the right side in the back row. I end up getting stuck on the right side with all the falling cubes gone. So, I can't backtrack far enough to get my die to match that die that needs to be matched in the back row to get some of the raised blocks to become level with the game board.
Thanks.
Scoring note: This game has had a scoring change: it is now 50 neopoints for 100 points scored in that game. So, now when it is not a feature game you will need a score of 2,000 points to get 1,000 neopoints. I think it was changed earlier yesterday.

Oh, there is a difference in that.
Instead of "1 up" it is "3 up"
You must've printed this section out a bit earlier from the final version. I found a few errors while i was changing my quick notation into this formal notation.
Also my Mirrored version doesn't work either. (Oops). Its been edited out.
Sorry about that

I have screenshots of all the levels starting at Level 2 with the solutions drawn in, maybe they will make things more clear.
All the solutions in the screenshots follow the same path as the ones in Scotts guide with the exception of Levels 16 and 17, which are slightly different but you end up with the same amount of points.
The solution for Level 24 is also different, I just came up with it and it uses 2 less moves than the one in the guide.
In the screenshots for Levels 14, 15, 17 and 20 the dice is not shown in the starting position. The letter "s" indicates the starting die positon for thoses levels.
I also found a solution for Level 21 that uses 6 less moves than the one in the guide, but the game has some kind of bug and I can't get the solution to work. Even though the die ends on the last spot with the 3 facing upwards like its supposed to, the level won't end. It acts like you have the wrong number. I didn't do a screenshot but the solution is:
1 up
1 Left
1 Down
All Left
Maybe it'll work in somebody else's game.
The current number one high score for this game is 2,251. You guys think it's legitimate? That's an awfull lot of 25 coins.

I got a different type of error (my computer)...
Mon Aug 23, 2004 5:37 am
I got a different type of shockwave error while playing this game. I was up to 930 points. As the game started to load level 14 or level 15.
I got this shockwave error Out of memory well loading a sprite even after purging (I don't remember the rest of the error).
I could not click on restart or end game. All I could do was exit my browser.
Has anyone else seen a similar error? I had probably restarted the game about 5 times (maybe a little more..that may have something to do with that shockwave error).
This error I don't think is a neopets error, but may be a problem with shockwave on my end.
Thanks.

Ah, nascarfan, I had that once, after being greedy and continuously restarting level one. Don't restart too fast. If that problem happens, just either reboot the game or reboot your computer.
Here's someese that may help with this game..Thanks
Tue Aug 24, 2004 6:34 pm
This is in relation to the die (item used with the game..not lose a life). It is the 7 rule.
If you can see 3 sides of the die then you know all sides of the die.
I found this out yetsterday and since it came for another site..before posting it. I have already asked one of the moderators about it.
This is where I originally found it.

It will the 10th reply to that topic .

I use IE. If you click ANYWHERE on the header for the window the game ends. I found that out by accident when i was chatting with a friend between levels and clicked back on the header to continue the game. i just make sure I use the tabs on the windows start bar on the bottom of the screen to go back and forth between windows. I sent a bug report. Probably won't do any good.
I have seen levels 2-18 mirrored..Thanks

For levels 2-15. I have sent something in to be added to the Dice Escape Solutions.
When a level is mirrored: do not reverse the up and down directions. The only directions that need to be reversed are the right and left directions.
The same scores for each level should still be possible in the same amount of moves.
The biggest trick is to realize the level is mirrored right away. For if you don't you can easily lose a 3-4 moves of possible points.
