Hi,  
I’v been stuck at the below level for over 2 weeks. Is there any option to unlock it for me? Or advise on the solution?

Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the forums @StaszekPiano, this is a family-friendly place where coders can share bugs, ask for help on any CodeCombat level (don’t forget to post your code [correctly](https://discourse.codecombat.com/t/essentials-how-to-post-format-your-code-correctly/15521)), or just hang out with other coders. But before you post more, please check out the guidelines (if you haven’t already): [this topic](https://discourse.codecombat.com/t/this-topic/15601).  
Have a great time! 🥳 (@enPointe77 is slow (no offense) xD)

Could you please post your code? 🙂

Wait, the text seems a bit like Polish… do you speak Polish? (I know this is off-topic)

Try replacing this with `hero.say("Stan celu gry: success")` and see if it works then.

Yes, it’s Polish.

It’s still not working ☹

The result is:  
Win the game - OK  
Add a Manual Goal to Defeat the Boss - FAILED

😃 Nice to see someone from Poland again. (I’m Polish too) But I can’t write in Polish. ☹ I can only speak. (and read a bit)

Hmmmmm. I’ll try playing the level with your code and see what’s wrong.

Try un-commenting this line `#game.spawnMaze(5)`

I’m afraid it’s still the same.  
My reasoning is that it should be ok - when I apply my solution it says “Defeat the boss” in the goals section on the right. However after the playback of my solution is finished the message is as I wrote above:

Win the game - OK  
Add a Manual Goal to Defeat the Boss - FAILED

So did I add the manual goal or not? I don’t get it ☹

I think here is the problem, the first manual goal is commented, try uncommenting it, it should work

You were right! I completed the level. My assumption (which was wrong) was that if I remove the scout goal I don’t have to worry about it. I uncommented it and got it working.

Thank you very much for your help!
