Puzzle 20 


Start in square 'S' and end in square 'E' moving either horizontally or vertically in each move. Start by moving 2 squares in each of your moves, but when you land on a '*' square, change the number of squares you move from 2 to 3, or vice versa. You can not step on or pass through the black squares and you have only 8 moves in which to complete this task.
