Easily the hardest map we've ever done from you. Love it!

Beautiful brainteaser!!

The best co-op portal map with tricky steps that might confuse you. Much brainpower needed no skills required

By far the hardest but most satisfying co-op map I've played. Thumbs up!

Dude, this is by far the best coop map ever. It was tricky, smart, infurianting, and ballbreaking. We had to start over 4 times until we figured it out :). Good Stuff

Nice feedback, thank you. :-)
I am glad you enjoyed the challange of the map.

It is nice that you decided to replay the map again
and I am happy, that you had some fun and good thinking going on. :-)

I played this back in May of 2013, and I do not remember doing it. (Also I accidentally deleted my comment from then somehow. :steamfacepalm:)

Just a few days later you updated it, and now, more than four years later, I'm playing it again (with a different co-op partner).

Still a challenge, still a thrill to solve. Not just once but at several points did we think we'd had the critical insight that solved the puzzle. Then our plan encountered reality and we had to stop and look again.

I think I feel better about now it now than the words of my past comment suggested. There were no timing problems and it felt totally fair. Both players were able to observe interesting features of the solution by thinking and looking.

Genious map!

Great map! Took us about 1 hour to finish it. It really was a brainteaser. ^^
teilzeit-jedi 17 Nov, 2016 @ 2:49pm 
I couldn't agree more. The best coop ever experienced. Took us two evenings, two hours each to solve. Loved the Beyond Imagination collection, but this is even better.

We did this map last week. It took us nearly four hours. But I've never felt so satisfied to finish a level. Definitely the best map I've played.
Deadman 21 Jun, 2016 @ 8:04pm 
Excellent map, one of the best maps I've played so far
DrFauli  [author] 21 Mar, 2016 @ 1:58am 
Now I am curious what you will say about my other brainteaser maps,
because it wont get any easier with the newer ones. :)

I am glad you enjoyed the level of difficulty.
wildgoosespeeder 21 Mar, 2016 @ 1:44am 
It was very enjoyable. This was the hardest coop I have ever solved with my partner. p0rtalmaster and are are in sync almost all the time as we play. :steamhappy:
DrFauli  [author] 21 Mar, 2016 @ 12:14am 
Thanks for the feedback. Seems like you enjoyed this logic-based map. :)

This was my first brainteaser map and I remember how much I enjoyed
working on it and trying to come up with logic-based ways to create puzzles.

Tried to improve my puzzles over the next (newer) maps aswell. :)
wildgoosespeeder 20 Mar, 2016 @ 10:45pm 
Very mind-blowing! Very hard! It takes a lot of imagination to visualize how to get to the end.
Byte 19 Jan, 2016 @ 9:26pm 
Okay, this half-way pissed my friend and I off, but it was fun enough that we really enjoyed it... It's a love/hate with these maps... Keep up the good work.
BurningAss 15 Dec, 2015 @ 12:37pm 
Nice map, it was very hard!
DrFauli  [author] 21 Oct, 2015 @ 10:06pm 
Thanks guys, I am glad you enjoyed this map! :o)
noobijaner 21 Oct, 2015 @ 2:31pm 
Great Map :) Your Maps are the best.
Travis the chimpanzee 21 Oct, 2015 @ 2:31pm 
Hardest and best Portal Map I ever had to solve with a buddy.
Give me 4 hours of my time back you talented son of a bitch!
taplonaplo 30 May, 2014 @ 12:41pm 
Great map, preferred it over the other brainteaser. 2nd room is a bit clunky, as you can get screwed even if you went by the intended solution, such as misplacing the laser portal, sending the cube misaligned or getting bumped off a button by a laser, all of which result in a fairly long reset time.

We ended up noclip to skip a hard reset which was a bit messy, but i believe we went by the intended solution.
kidblinks 15 Dec, 2013 @ 2:15pm 
Another great puzzle. Love the brainteaser series. Thanks.
DrFauli  [author] 14 Sep, 2013 @ 4:17am 
Check my Workshop for more of my Maps.
I guess you will like some of the other maps, too. =)
SnickerS 13 Sep, 2013 @ 4:05pm 
Awesome map! Took us almost an hour. We want more! :D
DrFauli  [author] 7 Jun, 2013 @ 8:01am 
@DanTheMan:
Thanks for posting the video!
The cube throwing in first room is not intended, but well... its working. :p

... and thank you again for showing me an unintended solution in 2nd room as well.
But at least it has the same difficulty as my solution and its not shorter either. =)

DAN 4 Jun, 2013 @ 1:25pm 
awesome map,me and my mate managed to get through it in around 3 hours.
Daisy 31 May, 2013 @ 2:09pm 
Loved the puzzle.
Radix 21 May, 2013 @ 9:17am 
Amazing map! One of the hardest Co-op maps and definitely the best PeTI map I've ever played. Took us ~2 hours to solve it...
Good job - as always.
DrFauli  [author] 19 May, 2013 @ 4:55pm 
thanks for your coments and feedback guys, I am glad that you had fun.
lordowi 19 May, 2013 @ 2:01pm 
Really awesome map! We've spent roundabout 2 hours to find out the solution... and now it feels... GREAT!! Time for a beer... cheers ;-)

Hardest and best coop map I've ever played. Thanks @ DrFauli
Chell 19 May, 2013 @ 12:21am 
Really challenging, esp. second part, kudos to the creator!
What? Josh is Evolving! 19 May, 2013 @ 12:20am 
That is the most difficult coop map I have ever played, bravo I feel like a genius.
Dartius 18 May, 2013 @ 11:35pm 
cool
DrFauli  [author] 18 May, 2013 @ 9:12pm 
I am sure the map is working fine, the solution is possible and I played the last release with 2 people. So I guess you will have to figure out the solution with some try and error or take a break and try it again later.
Bahlsen 18 May, 2013 @ 5:25pm 
So we just spent a few hours stuck in room 2, now we can't help questionning if it's feasible, could you check if everything is okay ?
DrFauli  [author] 17 May, 2013 @ 4:19am 
I have edited the map and increased the difficulty of room 2, so it would catch up
with the difficulty of room 1. Both rooms are now at high difficulty, which will also
increase the estimated blindrun playtime to 90 minutes or even more.

If you have recently played the map, you should download and try it again, now.
DrFauli  [author] 16 May, 2013 @ 1:33pm 
@ Mieksssss:
You really should try it again and think about it a little bit more. =)
Maybe it helps, if you try to sleep and try it the next day.
Phtephen_ 16 May, 2013 @ 10:41am 
Not sure if my partner and I are just dumb, but we couldn't figure out the first part. We must have sat there for about 45 mins just thinking. I'll try again with one of my smarter friends =P
eminga 14 May, 2013 @ 3:26pm 
One of the best maps I've ever played, good job!
DrFauli  [author] 14 May, 2013 @ 1:26pm 
@ Instantiation:
Thanks for your feedback! You are right about the 'fair' timing. I did not want to make it a
close call, because it should kind of stay a logic puzzle and so i decided to add some
extra seconds.
DrFauli  [author] 12 May, 2013 @ 4:36pm 
@ Naelyan:
Thanks for your feedback! I am glad, that you enjoyed the map.
Naelyan 12 May, 2013 @ 4:33pm 
This was tough as shit, but really, really satisfying to finish.
