Cycle. 1) I figure out a puzzle. 2) My solution doesn't work. 3) I check the walkthrough which tells me that my solution is right, I just need super-timing. 4) I luck into the solution after 40 tries, unlocking the next level and the cycle begins again.

I want to like this game, but the lack of explanation (you have to guess that squatting boxmen make the other jump?!?) and the frustrating level of precision make it work instead of fun.

I couldn’t resist to give the game a very tragic ending: After being the only boxman left… sitting alone in his house… he decided he couldn’t live like this… went out of the house… and jumped off the ledge…

I don't mind timing being a component in any game, but from level 10 on it's ridiculous. Gave up on 11... easy badge it is for me.

I like the concept and the dialogue is amusing but when you need to use a walkthrough to get the timings right it gets pretty annoying very fast. Great game but the level design is frustrating and I normally play a game until the end. I don't feel there's any skill, it's all in the timing. Gave up on the last level.

I'm really upset, I've been trying to pass the final level for ages. I don't like when the puzzles aren't about figuring out a clever way to approach the level, but about manoeuvering and movement precision. I'm considering abandoning the game, even though I'm at the last level and really want the 30 point badge... And the SFx which cannot be turned off, because increasingly tiring as time slips past.

I actually found it easier on level 13 to send my robot to do the running, While i moved the levers on top.
Cheat method to win level 13:
1. Once the Boxmen have opened the doors. Immediately place a stationary blocker.
2.Go to the right runner, place a blocker just before the middle monster button to make the boxman continually press the button.
3. Walk up, and place a jumper boxman on the left of the right lever box.
4. Stay on the right side of the right lever box, drop a running boxman.
5. Move to the left past the lever, throw a running man, he should be jumping to the other side to activate the left hand lever.
6. Run back and activate the right lever.
TADA!

The timing is just too tight for me. Wasn't able to get past level 11 in 2009, haven't been able to do so in the 11 years that followed.

Level 10 is insane. For such an unforgiving need of timing the positioning of your boxmen is too tricky. Frustrated I watched a walkthrough just to see, that I was doing right all the time but not precise to 1/1000.
I think there is room for improvement.
Besides of this - Game is fun.

That last one was quite a challenge, I needed a lot of trial and error, but finally I managed to achieve what I had sought. The badge.

You know... I haven't cursed anyones existence more then when I was trying to play level 11. Whoever originally thought that it would be "fun" to add tiny platforms that require precision jumping and then make it so the character slips. It kind of drains all of the fun that I had playing the previous levels and really makes it so I don't even care to finish the game. Was cool until that point.

Game design is great and cute, would have been much nicer to have more placement puzzles rather than timing puzzles though.

The exact time I hit the spikebox silhoutte the exact time he hits the switch that solidify the spikes >:( this just take PURE LUCK

When a puzzle game is no longer about the solution, but rather the execution, it is no longer a puzzle game.
Also the walkthrough button doesn't even lead to a walkthrough anymore.

i hate internet so much. it ruins great flash games by their sticky keys. automatic lagging a bit wich makes you fall of leaps. otherwise...4/5
