Level 9 - Checkered room

[Talo]

Hi all

I'm kinda stuck at the beginning of level 9. I got the ornate key, but i cant seem to go any where.

The only place is the checkered room and for the love of GOD i cant get the door to open.

Please do help.

I actually didn't know what 'checkered' meant, so I googled 'checkered room' and saw the solution in the pictures.

Lol I'm no native English speaker either but I knew "checkered" meant like "a guy with a checkered past". So I assumed it's something bad or nasty and in a sense it was ))

But after a while I too googled it up and immediately got it

You have to put items on the platforms so it would resemble a checkers game,look it up.

I don´t check it, i´m a german boy, perhaps i translate wrong. i go one step in the room, put left side two items on two left plattforms, then right one item, go forward put left one item, then i can´t put three items on the right side. have i a error in reasoning?
