Unlocking

Can you also polymorph to a gelatinous cube and eat it?

--LWM

I tried eating a large box and a chest as a polymorphed gelatinous cube, but I found out I couldn't do that at all. So I guess the answer is no. :/ —Shijun 07:10, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Let me correct myself. You can't eat a container that has items in it. —Shijun 07:15, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

slashem polymorph trick

Will this anger a shopkeeper, if that is where the ice box happens to be? I'd think yes. Tjr 13:42, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Does a food store buy ice boxes? Tjr 16:23, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Nesting

It seems a little strange that chance of an explosion appears to increase after 7 layers. Is this correct? And is it the same for SLASH'EM? MrFroon 20:42, October 14, 2009 (UTC)

It makes sense from a game balance perspective: you could almost eliminate the risk of explosion otherwise. -Tjr 08:02, October 15, 2009 (UTC)

Destroying

Is there any reliable way to destroy boxes and chests? I know you can force with a blunt weapon, but this then relies on failure rather than success (you'd have to keep repairing the lock). This is for the gray stone-in-a-container so polymorph is out.--PeterGFin 10:41, January 11, 2010 (UTC)
