The level provide puzzles which, in general, do not require luck or fast reaction times." Well, level 32 seems to be an exception. It seems to me that there are excellent reaction times required to catch all the gems - at least for a non-professional BD4 player like me. At least I'm not the only one who can't solve the level within some minutes. But I won't give up.

If any part of this level is based on reaction time it's the right side. Dirkimops Single Player dirkimopsgmx.de Thu Jan 6, 2005 8:03 am   Post subject: Bet that's a hint.

It's not quick but very effective. As a result of discovering this technique I revisited other similar levels with great success.

Well, I also noticed that I don't have to catch them all directly, but my method to collect them is not very effective. Maybe I'm just not calm enough when playing this level (I've got a pulse of 200! ... Nearly.) I'll try again later.

So, you are saying there is a way to do this without risking getting hit on the head by many rocks? Wil Single Player wilamristar.com.au Tue Mar 1, 2005 5:26 am   Post subject: Okay... you can grab gems (hold enter and move) when they are "still". When they roll off other gems (or rocks) they are momentarily still. So, if you position yourself next to where they are rolling by you can grab them all without the need to move. Furthermore you'll be safe from falling debris assuming you have a "still" gem or rock on top of your head. cusack Single Player ferzlegmail.com Wed Mar 2, 2005 4:27 am   Post subject: Wow. I didn't know that... It makes me wonder how many other things I didn't know were possible. This is why some of you are so much better than the rest of us--you know the little "tricks"--especially Wil, since he wrote the game... There are many issues relating to timing that I have always wondered about. I'm going to just have to start trying things that seem impossible. Thanks Wil. Chuck.
