I recommend "Courier New" font @ 10 points to view this document.
This walkthrough assumes the "patch" (Yay Smutty Smurf, see "Resources"
section) for the most part. The patch I used had several errors in the codes.
Specifically: Level 22 code = 83750916, Level 73 code = 19154062.
Some levels are pure puzzle (the marble is safe), others are primarily mouse
skill, most are a combination of both.
The Walk-through is divided into three sections, Hints, Major Landscape
Pieces, and Solutions. All three sections are ordered by landscape (level)
number.
The Hints are vague and possibly cryptic. There are very few spoilers (and
perhaps very little help). Hints may even be missing for some of the simpler
landscapes.
The Major Landscape Pieces section contains a few more possible spoilers (and
possibly more tips). Pertinent information is added by level. The early level
descriptions are basic, later ones contain level specific details.
The Solutions are walk-throughs of the levels. (One type of puzzle is (pseudo)
randomly initiated, so an exact walkthrough is not possible (tips are
substituted). Some levels require a certain level of mouse skill, so an exact
walk-through is not possible (tips are substituted).)
The Oxyd colors are randomly assigned on some levels. The solutions are
written taking this into account on those levels. They may not be the most
efficient.
I use the term "map" to refer to all the screens that comprise the level.
To "find" a hint, list of pieces, or solution for a specific level, use the
search terms: "Level # Hint", or "Level # Pieces", or "Level #
Solution".
(No quotes, # = number of the level. Example: Level 39 Solution)

The object of the game is to free all the Oxyds on all the levels by matching
those of like color. Two Oxyds of the same color will remain open (be freed)
if they are opened in sequence.
Mouse movement = marble movement.
Left button = Use, or drop the selected (left-most) inventory item. (Some
items are used by pressing the left button. Others work automatically as
needed when selected, and are dropped if the left button is pressed. And some
are dropped to use.)
Right button = Cycle inventory.
Pressing F8 at the start menu will bring up a basic game guide.
With Win2k at least, the mouse sensitivity (speed and acceleration) that is
set for Windows affects the in-game mouse. Experimenting with these
settings may help with the more technical landscapes. If using a non-
optical mouse, keep it clean.
Sound can be a problem with some OSs, notably Win2k. You can play without it,
but should be able to at least use "poor sound" (system speaker).
