Which Quell or Quell Reflect levels have been solved better than perfect?

I don't think we have such a list, but we can start one here!

Graham, here is a list of my better-than-parenthesized-numbers completions.

'Quell'

1943, Stage 3, Level 2, "Fabrication": 5 (9)
Secret Levels! 4, "Lock Pick": 14 (23)

'Quell: Reflect'

1970, Stage 3, Level 4, "Search Party": 42 (45)
1972, Stage 2, Level 2, "Play Ball": 16 (17)
1972, Stage 3, Level 1, "Grander Illusion": 26 (28)
1974, Stage 2, Level 4, "Warren": 24 (25)
1974, Stage 3, Level 4, "Extraction": 26 (29)
1975, Stage 2, Level 3, "Spoilt for Choice II": 22 (24)
1975, Stage 3, Level 4, "Trove": 19 (20)
Secret Levels! 2, "Decay": 14 (19)
Secret Levels! 4, "A Different Perspective": 28 (37)

wow!

Thanks Barron,

this is very helpful (and fascinating!).

Quell reflect 1975,stage 2 level 4 : 13 (18)

Thanks for these... gives me some more to aim for!

@Barron,I finished those levels as your record:

1943, Stage 3, Level 2, "Fabrication": 5 (9)
Secret Levels! 4, "Lock Pick": 14 (23)

Thank you!

I've gotten all of these save "Search Party" (a matter of time) and "Dizzy" (in which 13 seems impossible!)

I even got 28 in "A different perspective" but it completely depended on the waterdrop rolling over the push block. Is there a way to get 28 here that doesn't merely capitalize on a defect?

Hi Andi - we only know of the official (32) move current solution. We'd love to know how you got 28!

To Andi ᅳI think you might doubt my solution about Dizzy. But there is solution that reduce the number of move. I annex a picture that you can trust.

Really? 32? In "A Different Perspective" I make 31 standard moves -- but on the exit from the silver ring (my 21st move) sometimes my waterdrop will roll up on top of the push block. It's clearly not supposed to but it still happens I'd say maybe 1 in 5 times. I’ve seen this “block rollover” on a number of different stages/levels, but never to such a real advantage as here. No less, rolling down off the block only cuts my solution by 3 moves:
URURULURULULRURULDRDRURULULULDL

@yestw7 -- That is something serious to shoot for - thanks for confirming!

I also got 5 moves on '74, stage 3, level 2, "Shuffle" (7) : But I used two fingers to move two different waterdrops in quick succession.

Andi, a twenty-eight move solution for "A Different Perspective" seems to only be possible with the glitch you described. And best of luck with optimizing your solutions for "Search Party" and "Dizzy."

It's great to see that better solutions are still being discovered for 'Quell: Reflect.' Thanks to yestw7 and Andi, I was able to be aware of and find a thirteen-move solution for "Dizzy" and a five-move solution for "Shuffle."

Just to keep the list up-to-date with the latest app updates and solution improvements, here are my better-than-parenthesized-numbers completions:

'Quell'

1943, Stage 3, Level 2, "Fabrication": 5 (9)
Secret Levels! 4, "Lock Pick": 14 (23)

'Quell: Reflect'

1974, Stage 3, Level 1, "Shuffle": 5 (7)
1974, Stage 3, Level 4, "Extraction": 26 (29)
1975, Stage 2, Level 4, "Dizzy": 13 (18)
Secret Levels! 4, "A Different Perspective": 28 (32)

Thanks Baron,

I got "Search Party" last night and "Dizzy" this morning so I'm up to date!

Both Q and QR have been great - I'm totally looking forward to your next project!

In quell reflect, on shelf 1972 frame 3 'Grander Illusion', my puzzle says that 26 moves are required to complete, not 28 like the solved puzzle says on YouTube.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled
Incorrect completion moves??? Shelf 1972 & 1974..

1970, Stage 3, Level 4, "Search Party"
I get 41 steps!

Quell Memento Guiding Spirit Level 3 Stage 1: 5 moves instead of 13

That's just ridiculous

Brendan - Guiding Spirit Level 3 Stage 1 can be solved in 5 instead of 13 if you keep your finger on the drop to move round (after gold ring) beating the red drop.

This works for me as well. But even without this trick of keeping the finger on the drop it is possible to solve this with 8 moves.

Or even 7 moves.

Well done Daniel Kracht.
