Optimal route against the models' wins

20 model episodes won this floor; none reaches the optimum of 250 HP. Below, monsters and doors only, the exact optimal route next to the most common winning trajectory (3 wins clear the same monsters and doors in the same order), as played in this DeepSeek-V4-Flash episode (final HP 247).

turn 15 The trajectory leaves the optimal route here: Open yellow door at (3,8) where the route takes Bat (4,2). The state value (the most HP still reachable at the boss) falls from 250 to 247 HP.

Open the episode at turn 15 to read the model's reasoning there.
