Question about secrets and Castle Doom

[Bleach]

Hoi,

This is my first post and I'm a recent addict to MM. So far I have completed 3 houses on the easy level (hard enough). But now I have some questions. I hope someone can help.


-When the game indicates that you have won: does that mean you have found the treasure room with the most gold or that you have actually found ALL rooms?
-After completing I find that I only have 60&% of secrets? So WHAT am I missing? The small hidden rooms? I always try to walk trough the walls in all the rooms to see if they go somewhere and the maps show I havent missed any. I think there is one general thing I miss/don't know of, but I don't know what.
-For example Room 16497 in Castle room (left of house). I CANT figure out how to cross the lava and get the money.

Thanks

Hi Elke, and welcome to MM!

In Room 16497, you can't cross the lava. Keep exploring for another approach to get that money.

When you go through the exit door in the treasure room, it only means you've finished the game. If you finish with 60% secrets, then you've missed some things. Look for subtle clues everywhere (e.g. differences in tiles) in floors, ceilings and walls to find hidden treasure.

Have fun, and good luck!

Welcome Elke. We're all happy MM addicts here.

Semi-Native gave you great advice. I just wanted to add a few things. Not all secrets are hidden rooms, sometimes it is something hidden in a room you're in. Secret rooms aren't usually shown on the map.

Thanks for the welcome and the advice. I still think I'm missing something I don't know about. I know about hidden stuff just behind the pillars and trying/jumping left and right out of the rooms. I'll just keep trying.

You can only walk, jump or use enter for the handles right?

Are there no walkthroughs or tips per room number?

Greetings!

You also use Enter to read the brown signs (commonly called BBB's), and don't forget the Down arrow key - there are sometimes hidden ladders and vines in floors.
