[flame set] #165 - Rolling Around

Signed by Tippy.

The text on the card reads from the top, clockwise round the maze:

Quote:
Rule 1: In this maze you must always run straight ahead until you hit a wall.

Rule 2: When you hit a wall, you can turn left, right or reverse back the way you came.

The Challenge: You have to enter the maze, collect all the labelled goals, and then exit.

The Question: In what order do you visit the goals, excluding repeat visits?


Apologies for how unclear this card has come out.

Assuming the goals are labeled A to L left to right, and top to bottom, I think the answer is:

but i havent actually got the card so i cant confirm whether this is right or not.

looking at it i have a horrible feeling this might have been a re-used map from that pietro salk marble game :s

rach =)

I don't think it is posible to get to D after A.

Full route:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Down (B), Left (D), Right, Down (I), Left, Up, Left, Up (H), Right, Up (G), Left (C), Down (K), Left, Up, Right (L), Left, Down, Right, Up (F), [Left or Right], Up, Right (A), Down, Left (E), Down, Right, Up (J), [Up or Down], Left, Up (End)

It doesn't say to find the most efficient way so why doesn't this work?

You have L and F the wrong way round.

I'm with Mr Nigma. It is possible to do it his way, (that's the way I tried first), it just means a couple of extra repeat visits. But the site doesn't accept that method and I'm not going to argue over the placement of two letters when both solutions work!

Agreed: L and F can be swapped. I was at first convinced that the confirmed answer was the only possible ordering, but I was wrong.
