Unfortunately, it was only released in Japan (1991). This game requires good brains and sometimes even better reflexes in order to solve those puzzles. There are total of four games in Pyramid Magic-series; two sequels and one remake. Plot is exactly same for all four games. You are an archaeologist, exploring a pyramid in search of treasure. All games are set in same location; a pyramid filled with traps and puzzles. Of course, puzzles get harder when you proceed in game. Luckily the game awards you with plenty of extra lives based on how fast you have completed the puzzle. However, even if you're the type to die often, you are awarded with password every five levels. There are 40 levels in total, so the game is relatively short. First part of the series also received a remake, called Pyramid Magic Special. It's almost same game, visually and musically, but puzzles are a lot harder. More or less the remake was aimed towards mostly for veterans of this serie. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= TABLE OF CONTENTS ================= - 01 - Basics 01A...............

You can only move to left or right, jump, grab blocks and kick rocks. With some button combinations, you are able to do some useful techniques as well. D-Pad - Moves the character left and right A - Kicks B - Lift/drop rocks C - Jumps START - Brings up controls menu Those are main controls in this game. However, there are some button combos to help you proceed better: C + A - Jump kicks C + B - Places rock to nearest ledge while in mid-air C + C - Jump kicks the ground below you (if used on rocks, they break) If you are having trouble with some levels, try these combinations. A + START - Skips the current level; can only use up to 3 times per game C + START - Restarts the current level =========================== - 01B - Items and Obstacles =========================== Archaeologist - You, the protagonist of this game Wooden Crate - Kick it to obtain Red Key (used to open Red Chest) Red Chest - Kick it to obtain Green Key (used to open Green Box) Green Box - Kick it, so you can make mummy vanish from protecting the exit Rocks - You can lift/drop them to make creative ways to solve different stages. If kicked, they keep flying forward, until it hits a wall or another obstacle. You can break them by jump kicking downwards (C + C) Mummy - Protects exit to the next level, until you open Green Box. If you try to touch them, you lose a life. As you can see, there are no enemies, which can kill you. However, since this is a puzzle game, there are plenty of other ways to get you killed. There are no bottomless pits either as there is solid ground everywhere. Rocks will be your main weapon of solving all levels, so use them well. ================ - 01C - Gameplay ================ The main gameplay in this game is very simple. You move either left or right, jumping from platform to platform and use rocks in creative ways to proceed. Main goal in all levels is to open Green Box, which in turn makes the floating Mummy vanish from protecting the exit. However, you need keys from Wooden Crate and Red Chest first (in that order) to open the Green Box. In every level you need to collect all three keys to solve the stage. However, even if you manage to open all boxes, you still have to make your way to exit. Sometimes you need to pile up rocks or go through small passages, so try to plan beforehand. There are many ways of losing a life, so be careful. In case you get stuck in any part of room, you need to restart it, losing extra life in process. If you want to be cheap and skip some rooms, it will cost you an extra life so don't use it in too desperate situation. If you touch Mummy, which is protecting the exit, you will die as well. Ways to lose a life: - get stuck in any part of room, press C + START to restart - lifting up a rock and falling to lower level with it - physically touch Mummy, which guards the exit - skip a room (A + START) You can score up to 3 lives per level, depending how fast you completed it. For maximum amount, complete the level under 1:30. If you die in any way described above, the timer won't reset and you have to start all over again. ========================== - 01D - Various Techniques ========================== Half-space usage is your friend in this game. With this, you can pile up rocks continuously while creating stairs, so you can ascend them. Also, by placing rocks halfway into small holes in walls, you can use single block as platform to get much higher than if you just placed it to the ground. Basic examples of half-space usage ([] = one rock): [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [][] [] [][] [] [] [] [] Be patient. Even though timer starts ticking from the moment level starts, if you don't plan your path few steps ahead, you get yourself stuck very often. You get your password every 5 levels anyway, so there is no need to rush. When you lift up a rock, you'll be in crouching position; with this you can get inside those tiny passages. Just be careful of not falling down while carrying the rock; you'll lose a life. Although levels are more than possible, you can skip up to three levels while playing. Be sure to have some extra lives at your disposal, since you lose one the moment you skip up. The skip is automatic; there is no confirm button. While carrying a rock, you can jump to ledges one space higher. When jumping over pits with the rock, you can place it to nearest ledge and fall without dying. This takes good timing; it's very easy to die in these situations. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= - 02 - Walkthrough =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= To be honest, this is type of a game, which isn't very easy to explain without image assistances. I won't be providing full walkthrough, but at least give you a hint or two in order to beat every level. However I do try to be as helpful as possible. Because some levels have tricky rock placements, I provide you some ASCII-images in how to do them. Since this game is mostly about brain (and somewhat about reflexes too), it's expected not to rely on these tips too much and actually follow the game. Starting from pretty early on, learn to use half-spaces effecively. ====================== - 02A - Rounds 01 - 10 ====================== -------- ROUND 01 -------- A simple level just for learning basic commands of this game; kicking boxes open, jumping and lifting/dropping rocks. Just remember controls, it's not too hard. Just remember not to fall down any steps while carrying a rock. You can jump steps safely with them, though. -------- ROUND 02 -------- This level introduces to using rocks to get past tiny passages. Just lift the rock and walk inside the passage and you get through. Lifted rock, which you carry, will be left in previous room, but that doesn't matter. In upper-right corner, you have to use one rock to get through tight descending stairs multiple times. -------- ROUND 03 -------- Yet another new technique is required here. You must drop kick downwards many times to break those rocks blocking your way down. To perform this technique, you must press jump-button twice in a row. Remember to practice this technique here, you will need it later on. -------- ROUND 04 -------- You have to create stairs by piling up rocks halfway top on each other. Best way to do this is by following example on left side of room. It is also a first level to require half-space placements. -------- ROUND 05 -------- You have to utilize everything learned from previous level to reach exit. However, lower-left can be quite tricky as you can't just create simple stairs. When you reach there, create three steps as in previous level. Then just place fourth one on top of third step to make it up. Password received: 141421 -------- ROUND 06 -------- Left side of this level looks impossible, but if you place rocks halfway into small holes in walls, you can use them as platforms to reach higher. Before going through the bottom side, remember to put the upper rock inside that small gap on middle, so you can get it from left side. -------- ROUND 07 -------- This is more or less a tutorial in, how to use rocks as platform to go through small passages from far-away. Everything else should be self-explanatory in this level, but in case you do not know how to solve it, follow the image shown just below this paragraph. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx xxxxxx xx xx xx [][] xx xxxxxxxxxx Note: X represents wall and [] represents rock. There's half-space distance between wall and left rock. -------- ROUND 08 -------- There are 6 rocks clustered. In the middle, there are three pits. Just take first keys first, then kick lowest row of 2x3 cluster. This should drop 2 rocks to rightmost pit. Distribute remaining rocks to other three pits: - 1 rock to left, 2 rocks to middle, 1 rock to right Now all is needed to go to rightmost pit and make your way to exit. -------- ROUND 09 -------- 1. Kick the nearby rock, crush wooden crate and then kick both rocks. Make your way to the lower-right. 2. Using three rocks in upper side, create a stair with them, so it's possible to pick up rocks from upper-right. 3. Crush red chest and green box and drop one of the rocks to the lower-right corner, on the ground level. 4. Drop down from middle and make your way to the exit. -------- ROUND 10 -------- 1. Crush the wooden crate and from stair of 3 rocks, kick the lowest one. Make your way to the red chest and open it. Kick the rock nearby. 2. Make your way to the right and open green box. From the stair of 4 rocks, kick two lowest ones. Use the rock on your left to make it to the exit. Password received: 404317 ====================== - 02B - Rounds 11 - 20 ====================== -------- ROUND 11 -------- 1. Open the wooden crate and kick a rock through upper gap. Kick another one using lower gap and make your way to red chest. Open it as well. 2. Use the rock to get to the lower part. Open the green box and finally use the nearby rock to get to the exit. -------- ROUND 12 -------- 1. Kick the nearby rock and open the wooden crate. Kick uppermost rock and open the red chest. Get to the middle. 2. Kick the rock inside gap above and make your way to right side. Open the green box and crush either of rocks, so you can make it to the exit. -------- ROUND 13 -------- 1. Distribute rocks as following: 1 rock to right pit, 2 rocks to middle and finally 2 rocks to left side. Drop to the left pit. 2. Kick one of the rocks, so it drops next to mummy. Open the wooden crate and make your way to the right. In order to make it through middle, you have to position lower block half-space away from wall. 3. Open thre green box and crouch your way to the exit. -------- ROUND 14 -------- It can be little confusing with the excessive amount of rocks in use. Luckily you don't need them all. You have to be little careful in lower-right corner, since you need actually two rocks there. 1. To start off, head to the NW-corner and drop kick through rocks, until you open wooden crate. Kick the lower block and drop down the remaining one. 2. This time, head to the NE-corner and drop kick through rocks, until you open red chest. Kick first two rocks, then drop third one to ground level. Leave fourth block alone. 3. Use the rock on higher ledge to get to the SE-corner. Kick the rock and head to the small opening. Head to the middle and open the green box. 4. Going back same way, this time use the tiny passage to reach exit. -------- ROUND 15 -------- This one is very simple. Ignore the upper way completely, because you need all rocks you can possibly have in lower-right corner. 1. First open all three boxes. Then drop two rocks to the lower level. Maneuver with them, until you get all three rocks to the lower-left. 2. Kick two of these rocks to lower-right and use remaining one to get there yourself. 3. Use last two rocks as platforms to get to the fourth one. Use it to drop down to the exit. Password received: 630925 -------- ROUND 16 -------- Again, not too tough, considering you have to use upper-left rock to reach the one in upper-right. Trickiest part might be lower-right side, though. 1. Open the wooden crate and head to upper-left rock. Kick it towards right, so you can get the rock in upper-right. 2. Maneuver this block back to area with wooden crate and kick it to the lower middle area, between red and green chests. 3. Now head to lower-right side, bringing the rock with you. Use it to obtain another rock, which is inside the right wall. Open the red chest. 4. Kick either of these rocks to middle area, next to another rock. Go across tiny passages, open the green box and exit. ROUND 17 -------- This one can be little tricky. You need only one rock in lower-left corner and you must use all rocks in 2x2 cluster to reach lower-right. Well, as long as you know, which rock to bring to the lower-left, it's not very hard. 1. Open the wooden crate and drop rock to where the crate used to be. Head to the middle and drop this same rock to lower-left area. 2. Head to the 2x2 cluster. Use following as example: xxxxxxxxxx [] [] [] xx xxxxxxxxxxx X = wall and [] = rock. Make sure there's half-space distance between them all, so you can use fourth rock to reach lower-right. 3. This time, simply create stairs of 4 rocks, while using last rock to get to the lower-left. Be sure to open red chest anytime as well. 4. Use rock to reach green box and to get to the exit. -------- ROUND 18 -------- Although theres only 6 rocks in bottom, you need 5 of them to make it past tiny passage in the middle. You need many half-space moves in this level. 1. Kick the lowest rock twice in a row. Now, start making three stairs, so you can get to the red chest area. Afterwards, just go get the wooden crate. 2. Now go get the red chest. You should have 2 free rocks in bottom part now. Bring either of them to lone rock in upper side of stairs. Place the rock above the other one. 3. Bring the remaining rock with you and use all three rocks to access upper side of this level. Just use half-spaces effectively. 4. Create a pile of two blocks, then drop down the left rock (rock A). Using upper rock of two-rocks pile, place it where rock A was originally. 5. Go get the green box and drop the rock nearby as left as possible. Use the other rock to maneuver around to the exit. -------- ROUND 19 -------- Much less moving around than last level, however you must get one of the bottom blocks to the pit on far lower-left, since you can't drop any of the upper ones there. Other than that, it's quite simple. 1. Drop the nearby rock to same level as wooden crate, open the crate and use rock to reach lower-right corner. 2. Maneuver with two rocks, until you reach the two rocks-pile. Kick upper one to the pit in the far left wall. 3. Climb up to the upper-left two rocks-pile. Kick them both to left and open the red chest. Use the nearby rock to get to the lower-left. 4. Open the green box and make your way both two tiny passages to exit. -------- ROUND 20 -------- This level's first room can be very tricky, but luckily it has relatively easy solution. Basically you need to get two rocks to the big room. We will be using "double stairs"-technique, so refer step 1 for more info. 1. To start off, follow this example picture to arrange first 5 rocks properly. I refer to rocks as numbers in which order you should place them in. xxxx xxxxxxxx xx xx xx xx xx[] WC xx[] xx xxxx44 xx xx 22 55 xx xx11 33 xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Yes, it's rather poor explanation, but it should be helpful. This way, you can get two remaining rocks to finish "stairs" to wooden crate. 2. Kick rocks number 2 and 4 (from above picture) to the big room. Now you can exit there yourself as well. Create stairs of 3 rocks towards NE-corner. 3. Drop kick to the area with red chest, without breaking lowest rock. Open the chest and make your way to the lower-left, kicking three rocks with you. 4. Use rock to reach green box and start creating stairs towards small gap in upper-right. You need in total 6 rocks to make it to the exit. Password received: 350307 ====================== - 02C - Rounds 21 - 30 ====================== -------- ROUND 21 -------- This room is relativey easy. There are four rocks in the upper part and we need to distribute three of them equally, so you can get past the right side. Rooms in lower-left are self-explanatory and shouldn't need much detail. 1. Kick the rock above wooden crate to right. Drop halfway placed rock to the left of green box. Then drop third rock to the ledge just above green box. 2. Open the wooden crate and make your way to the lower-left. Kick one of the rocks to right and open the red chest. Climb back to the upper part. 3. Drop to the rock just left of the green box. Open the box and use remaining two rocks to make it to the exit. -------- ROUND 22 -------- Again, the room starts off very easy. However, lower-right part can be fairly tricky. It's not too hard to get stuck there, so move efficiently. 1. Kick a nearby rock to the right and keep drop kicking all way down, opening wooden crate in the process. 2. Use the rock inside lower-left wall to drop other one to lower-right part. Bring it as right as possible. 3. Lift the upper rock and drop it to the top of other rock. Make your way to the red chest, open it and get out from passage. You should have only one rock in use now. 4. Simply make your way to upper-right, open the green box and get to the exit. -------- ROUND 23 -------- Small gap in upper-left may tell you to drop rock to the exit, but that's not the case. You need all four rocks in lower-right and you even have to bring one of rocks back to lower-left as well. 1. Kick the lower rock to right and go there as well. Drop both rocks to ground level, but don't fall off just yet. 2. Open the wooden crate and move the nearby rock one space left. Now fall down to the bottom. Use one of the rocks to get the lower rock near right wall. 3. You should have three rocks in use now. Create stairs with them to reach fourth rock, the one you moved one space left. Drop it to the ground level. 4. Open the red chest and create stairs towards left side. Maneuver with them, until it's possible to kick fourth rock all way to lower-left corner. 5. Climb up, open green box and make your way to the exit. -------- ROUND 24 -------- This one seems quite tough at first, but it's not really as bad as it looks. Just plan your steps carefully. 1. Immediately fall down and kick the wooden crate near you. Make your way to the pile of two blocks on the right side, grab the upper one and maneuver it to very lower-left corner. Afterwards, proceed to upper middle part. 2. Keep climbing, until you are able to break red chest. Do so and maneuver with all three rocks, until you can kick two of them to same room as green box. Use third rock to follow them. 3. Kick the green box open and kick one of the rocks to lower-left area. Follow it and kick the other two rocks to the long vertical corridor. Switch places with uppermost rock in the pile and kickjump one of the rocks, so you will be at same level as the end passage. 4. Now, finally use the rock on your right to make it to the exit. -------- ROUND 25 -------- You might have trouble sorting the rock pile, because it is essential to have all four rocks in use. You can't use the ones from ground level, unfortunately, but you don't need them. 1. To begin with, grab the rock nearby and use it to kick wooden crate. Return the way you came and hop over to pile of four rocks, like this. Kick the second rock from top and then kick the top rock again. If you did it right, you should be able to use all four rocks. 2. Maneuver with these rocks, until you can get two of them to upper-right side create a pile of two rocks, so you can reach the upper area. Kick the red chest open and return. Use the two rocks and drop them down again. 3. Maneuver with rocks, so you can bring two of them to upper-left area. Make your way to the green box and kick it open. Get back to the lower ledge. 4. Use one of the two rocks in upper-left, so you can go down the diagonal passage towards lower-left. Exit the stage. Password received: 391215 -------- ROUND 26 -------- This room is very similar to round 20, except it's to the other direction. I have drawn a small picture to help for step 1. It's not very good but try to get best of it. 1. To begin with, arrange rocks like this. You have to do some maneuvering, but try to put them like this: xx xxxxxx xx xxxx xx xx xx 44xx xx 33xx xx 66 22 xx 55 11 xxxxxxxxxxxx The rocks are numbered, in which order you should place them. 2. Now, use rocks 3 and 4 to continue left stairs. Kick the rock 2 off the level and use rock number 1 as final platform to reach first two chests. Kick them both open. 3. Start kicking the pile on far left and open the green box. Now, using all remaining 7 rocks, make your way to the upper-left corner. You must bring all rocks systematically to the right side of level first. 4. Once that is done, hop up the stairs and exit the stage. -------- ROUND 27 -------- It might be look quite tricky and requiring much maneuver, but as long as you prioritize, it won't be a problem. Overall, the room is simpler than it looks. 1. Drop down and open the wooden box. Maneuver the rock nearby, so you can bring second rock from above ledge to the lower-right corner. Kick one of rocks to the left side and use remaining one to get yourself there. 2. Go to the set of 6 rocks and from both rows, break the middle one. Using the kicked rock in step 1 as base, create stairs of four rocks to upper area. Open red and green chests and kick the uppermost rock to the lower-right corner. Now kick the rock near you all way to lower-left corner. 3. Kick the two rocks from the top of stairs to lower-left corner. It should be stairs with two rocks now. Use the upper one to make it way to lower-right. Kick the two rocks to the left side and use remaining rock to follow. 4. Now, create a following structure using all remaining 7 rocks and +-shaped wall as base. xx []xxxxxx x [][][]xx x [][][] [] x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Hoping that picture makes much sense, try to arrange rocks like that. 5. Now, simply make stairs towards exit at the left side and use 7th rock to exit the level. -------- ROUND 28 -------- Luckily this level doesn't require much explanation. It has few tricks here and there, but nothing overly difficult. 1. Immediately kick the rock next to you. Open the wooden box, kick two rocks to the other side and use last rock to reach middle area. Kick the nearby rock to the left. Head to the red chest and break it. 2. Now, re-create the pile of rocks nearby into exact same part, where red chest used to be. Use the rock on lower-right and kick the rock in the tunnel all way to left. Place this same rock now one space to right. 3. Drop one of the rocks from the pile right above this same rock. Use other rock to put it into a small passage on left, so you can grab it from left. Maneuver around, so you can return back to the middle part. Make your way to the lower-left side now. 4. Keep hopping from ledge to ledge, until you reach green box. Open it and climb up the vine to exit the stage. -------- ROUND 29 -------- This room is much simpler than some earlier rooms. You shouldn't have any trouble getting through. 1. Make your way to the lower-right side, where you should have two rocks to work with. Use them as stairs and then pick up the third rock to reach on the middle room. 2. Use the two rocks nearby to reach the other two rocks. Kick lower one to the right and use the remaining one to follow through. Open the wooden box and return the way you came. 3. Kick two rocks to the room with red chest. Follow through and put one of the rocks to the upper ledge. Kick it to the left, open the red chest and make you way to the upper-middle area. 4. You have very little room to work with, so you shouldn't need much advice for the remaining of the level. Make your way to the exit. -------- ROUND 30 -------- Another pretty straightforward level. However, the upper-left corner is quite tricky and misleading. You need 5 rocks to reach upper-right. 1. Put one of the rocks to the small passage on the left and make your way to the vertical tunnel. Open the wooden box and make your way to the left. Open the red chest and make your way to the upper-left part normally. 2. First, use one of the rocks to get a lone rock from alcove. Kick it to the right. Now create a two-rock stairs to the same alcove. Use third rock to get in and when you're inside the alcove, kick that same rock out. Open the green chest, kick two rocks out and get back to the bigger room. You should have 5 rocks to work with. 3. Before doing any stairs, put one of the rocks into a small alcove leading to the upper-right. Now that it's out of way, create a stair of three rocks leading to the alcove. Pick the fifth rock and use it as fourth step of stairs. Use remaining rock to reach upper-right. Proceed to the exit. Password received: 660821 ====================== - 02D - Rounds 31 - 40 ====================== -------- ROUND 31 -------- Only ten more rooms to go. This one is quite simple, but you have to work quite a bit in the left middle area. It's not very hard, though. 1. First kick upper rock all way to the left, then place the other rock halfway into same ledge with green box. Proceed to the left middle area, breaking wooden box along the way. 2. Head to the upper area and open the red chest. Now carefully maneuver one of the rocks there to the small alcove in the middle part of room using left side. Then drop the other upper rock into a small floating platform at the top left side of room. Kick this rock to the right. 3. Going around the upper side, you can get to the green box and get safely back to the exit using same way. -------- ROUND 32 -------- Rooms are getting little more simpler in design. This one is no expection, but you will be fine, as long as you don't maneuver with rocks too much. 1. First head to the wooden box. Open it and bring the rock with you to the lower-left corner. Head to the middle room and throw the rock here to the ledge above. Kick it to left. Use the rock above and grab the red chest from top-right room. 2. Return to the middle and drop the rock here to top of vine. Head to the bottom part now. Use leftmost rock as stair to get to higher ledge. Now drop it halfway to left side of small gap at floor. 3. Head to the rock on top of vine and use it to reach green box. Open this box and exit the level. -------- ROUND 33 -------- If you can get out of the first part safely, the rest of this level is more than simple. Really, you don't have any trouble apart from beginning. Try to follow instructions carefully. 1. Open up wooden box and enter the small room on right. Kick two rocks to the left room and follow through. Make a pile of two rocks next to the wall, then return to small room. Again, kick two rocks to the left and follow. 2. Place one rock near the alcove on right, then another halfway to top of it. Open the red chest, then place third rock on top of 2 rocks. Place this rock to where red chest used to be. Place last rock on top of 2 rocks. Proceed to the right side of level. 3. Use a rock nearby to get through passage, open green box and exit the level. -------- ROUND 34 -------- Very small level, which is actually much trickier than it looks. Your main objective is to kick two rocks at the same to the right side of level. 1. Open wooden box and red chest. Now maneuver around with both rocks from the left side, until you can get one of the rocks to right half of a small floating platform. Place other rock onto left half of that same platform. 2. Kick them both to the right side. Work your way to right side and exit the level after opening the green box. -------- ROUND 35 -------- This one is much more open-spaced, giving you a chance to improvise. Do note that to exit from lower-right corner, you only need two rocks. 1. Do not open up the wooden box yet. Instead pick up the rock nearby and climb upwards. Drop it to the first pit you see. Head to the row of two rocks on the upper area. Pick up either one and drop it to the same pit. 2. Head back to the lower-left, open the wooden box and go through the small passage. Kick one of the rocks to right, open the red chest and return the same way you came. Head to the lower-right corner. 3. Place one of the rocks halfway into nearby alcove, open the green box and get back up to exit the level. Password received: 620920 -------- ROUND 36 -------- 5 more rooms to go! This one is interestingly confusing level. A regular player would think that the upper side is entrance. In fact, it's an exit. 1. Kick the rock nearby to the left and make your way to upper side of room. Pick up the rock and drop it to the pit below. Make your way through the middle passage to the left half of this level. 2. Use the rock on lower-left to make your way to the up. Use a rock here to reach the wooden box. Open it and return to lower-left. Enter the room on right, open the red chest and return the way you came. 3. Open the green chest and make your way to the upper area. Use two rocks here to get back to the right side. Exit the level. -------- ROUND 37 -------- Lower side of this level requires some extra maneuvering, so try to follow instructions carefully. Upper part looks a lot trickier, but there's only one solution for it. 1. Use the rocks nearby to kick a lone rock at the above alcove. Then kick one of lower rocks to left as well and get to the lower-middle room. Maneuver yourself to a room with wooden box. Don't open it yet. 2. Use the nearby rock to get an additional rock from the tiny alcove. Kick it to the lower-leftmost room. Open the wooden box and use two rocks from both lower-middle rooms to get to the lower-left corner. 3. Use the lone rock here to reach to the middle part. Now, place uppermost rock onto ledge at top-left corner. Then place both rocks halfway onto small floating platform directly left from red chest. Kick them both to right. 4. Open the red chest and make your way to top-right corner. You must place the rock here halfway into a small gap at the right wall. Return to the middle and bring one of the rocks into top-right as well. Make your way to the a narrow passageway and open the green box here. Follow the passage to the top-left corner. 5. Place the rock here halfway into the small alcove and climb to the exit. -------- ROUND 38 -------- Another fun looking level here. Your main objective; first you must bring one of the rocks to the red chest from the bottom side. Do not waste any upper rocks for that part and you'll be fine. 1. Kick the rock to the right and follow through. Now kick another rock from the pile of two to the right. Head to the lower-right room and open the wooden box here and return to the big room. 2. Using thee rocks from the middle room, form stairs towards the upper-left. Now pick up the last rock from lower-right room and bring it to the room with red chest. Open it and get to the upper side of this level. 3. From the set of three rocks, pick up the top one and drop it to the right side of other two. Fall down to the green box, open it and head back to the row of three rocks. 4. Using these three rocks, create stairs, so you can jump over to the exit. -------- ROUND 39 -------- Alrighty, this one is much simpler than it looks. Also, what's with those extra boxes? Don't pay any attention to them; you don't need to open them. 1. Before going to left side, kick the upper rock towards left side. Slowly, make your way to the lower-left room and open the wooden box. Upon returning to other room, place the rock above you onto small alcove slightly to your upper-right side. Kick it to the right and make your way to top-left. 2. Open the red chest and place one of rocks halfway into the same alcove. Maneuver around, until you can get to small room with green box. Open it and get to the middle room. Now you can make your way straight to the exit. -------- ROUND 40 -------- Time for final puzzle! Are you ready for a challenge!? Oh wait, you have just reached the end of first part of the Pyramid Magic-trilogy!
