Grind the Bad Apples level
This level has the worst design I've ever seen in a video game... at the end you have to exit the level but it's a maze. The objective shows through a wall that has no doors so presumably there's some convoluted long route round I need to know. I followed the blood river back and it just looped to the end of the level. Genuinely awful level design.

Wow, someone pointed this out, yes I agree the layout is not the best - it feels as if you are being choked, something everyone talked about in early-access. Interesting that someone brought it up now. Use the darkness to your advantage and the noise indicator is also great.

stay to the left at all times to exit

2 of the 4 of us died because we couldn't find the exit, pretty telling tbh. Hopefully the devs can make it clearer. Even just a couple of exit signs with arrows around the map for example.

What? Its not hard just go always left like the other guy said

After you grind the children, the grinder opens up (Takes 5-10 seconds), just run through that and you'll be back at the entrance to the ride and can go left, left, left.

That said I absolutely got stuck here first time I did this level, was a mess to get out because I didn't see the grinder open.

It can definitely be a bit confusing on your first go if you don't realise the grinder opens up leading right to the exit of the root canal.

Once you figure it out you'll be able to get to the exit shuttle from there in 30 seconds easy

It's definitely one of the hardest trials in the game. You do eventually get a feel for the layout after some more games.

Considering this is not the first trial new players find on the genesis program, you should know by now when "exit the trial" appears you make your way back where you came from. After destroying the cart and the blades move out of the way it's a simple left turn where you first entered the Fun Park's tunnels

You haven't played Pervert the Futterman yet have you?

make great use of items and doorways. you can easily outrun people if you run though 1-2 doors and close them behind you. SPRINT close no stop and turn around. its much faster to run and tap close as your are running through it instead of stopping to do a slow close.

also pervert the futterman was 10x harder layout that is MEGA tight early on and gives you no room to breath until you are 50% done with it.

I think that's the main problem. When the head to the exit warning shows up, you assume you have to backtrack to the beginning of the level (this is the case with almost every other level in the game). If you aren't present to watch the blades opening up then it's not obvious at all that you pass through them and that's the way you have to exit the level. I've since played the level and once you know this of course it's easy to escape.

Oh yeah, when I was doing the trial for the first time I got so lost at the end, I thought the game bugged out lol
its easy once you learn it :)
