So, now I've been stuck again in this new area. I feel like this is where I need to be to progress further but I'm at a point where I can't seem to find my way. It seems that no matter which direction I move here, I fall into a trap. So that also makes me think that I'm where I need to be. This is what I assume to be the tricky part of the maze.

I know there's probably one tricky route to take from this area but for now I'm just a resetting machine.

Hope to see you folks in the solved club soon. :)
I think I'm in that spot now. I can easily get there, but once there every movement turns into a trap.

Welcome Abtmn! Whats up with all these Minnesotans? Too cold up there to be outside so Revomazes are perfect. :lol: I still haven't come across anyone from Nebraska yet.

But can you imagine how cold they are when they show up after sitting on those trucks?

Brrrrr!

Sorry to crash your aqua party :D

Thank you. Yes, it was cold. I was born in Nebraska but have been in MN most of my life.

I drove through Nebraska before. I didn't come across a Nebraskan! Only corn.

I'm not wild about the snow or cold but would prefer the cold.

I opened my Aqua about 20 minutes ago. It was my first revomaze. Mint should be here in the mail tomorrow. In excited for a tough challenge.

Just got my aqua today (used..)
I must say I'm thrilled by it.
Was not a huge challenge after doing some harder ones already, but, I think I enjoyed it more than blue? I don't know, it was great! Good starter maze for sure!

See you guys on the inside haha

Aqua was my first. One tricky spot wasn't too bad. Enjoyed it enough to grab a Bronze and a Titanium. Got near the end of the Ti before finally discovering what you have to do to get to the remaining part, and almost threw it down in disgust. I know lots of folks love how Chris torments you with "tough challenges". I on the other hand found Ti's "challenge" to be truly unfair. It's like solving the final puzzle (Carta Blanca) of that stupid Sacred Myths and Legends series (https://toysgamespuzzles.com/products/s ... nd-legends)... Seriously, you have to put it WHERE? So far beyond the pale. For Ti, "just ignore one of the basic rules/assumptions" about a maze. Uh, no.

NOT trying to disrespect avid Revo fans. In fact, respect to people who will go at something like that until it's done, no matter the "challenges".

Yeah, the Ti and Bronze are long gone. I kept the Aqua in a clear sleeve so others can enjoy and appreciate it. Truly, Revomazes *are* quite unique and cool puzzles. But like most things, appeal more to some than others.
