Problem is, what happens when you fail the first attempt? Is there anywhere on that level to collect magic stones? I'm now stuck trying to pass the two leopards with 3 magic stones and a ton of stones. On my first attempt I was SOOOooo close to finishing them off. I killed one with the magic stones while standing on the small ledge, and the other killed me while I accidentally tried to finish it off with normal stones rather than my boomerangs (I ran out of magic stones). Now it seems that the level is impossible to finish. I really do NOT want to have to do the mines again... -- Emilio Galasso University of Toronto: Computer Science eg...@msi.net bo...@torfree.net
