Notes

This is a more advanced version of the Send Away puzzles that I had created earlier. Cells in this version have multiple directional arrows to choose from. Since you will be doing more than following a series of arrows, the difficulty is significantly higher.

Since this puzzle goes in a new direction for me, there was a bit of a learning curve in the development. I made a few mistakes that I’m a little disappointed with. I also spent a lot of time that I didn’t want to throw away. I hope that my next attempt at a similar puzzle will work better.
 

Feel Free to Comment

I always recommend figuring out HOW to solve puzzles with as little assistance as possible. You can still discuss solving tips and solutions if you would like. After you finish your first puzzle of this type, there is no reason to hide from the comments section to share your thoughts and perhaps help anyone who is stumped.
