Landing" and "Ballroom West"! :-)
But if there's one JSW room where I always thought the floors should
crumble, it's "Dr Jones will never believe this".

the swordfish in "The Final Barrier" in his leftmost rather than
rightmost right-facing frame, and the way "Eugene's Lair" is now
unpassable should the player decide to go round the MM caverns again
after collecting all the items therein (Eugene should be triggered
by collecting the last item rather than by the flashing portal - or
perhaps the swordfish-routine should lock the portal in "This I do
not believe").
I must now investigate Variants W, X, Y, Z and [, along with
JSW64:Dragon32.
