I'm doing a streak of adventures anyway so it's just a matter of making a few notes. And I only discovered two so far with a void behind it. Both had the odd sanctuary. One was in Egypt and one was in France. And I'd do the cheat thing, except that it's so much more fun working for it. Thanks Chuckles.

Zeneport only works on that one "spiral" with the floor switch.
It does NOT work on the other zigzag doorway in Tuatha's. The one with the treasure chest requiring a heart keystone. Tried zeneport, but there's apparently not enough room to meditate or teleport in that narrow hallway.
Will try ghost potion. Haven't had much good experience with potions.
Haven't tried zeneport on the Temple of Heaven doorway.
Intrigued by this "R" room question...

Okay - I sent a Sim to France with Pangu's Axe.  She tried the Maze of the High Ruler which has the same "R" pattern on the floor.  There is indeed a void behind that chamber but there's no hidden door leading to it.  Just a void with nothing in it.  I checked with testingcheats enabled and found there was just a empty unlit space as if EA built too big a tomb and decided enough was enough.  Let us know how it went in Egypt.

There is however, an issue I have with that Maze.  Does anyone else get nothing from under the rubble pile on the left of the door past the room with the statues?

Go to the void, or the "R" room rather, and shift-click on the floor, "buy on this lot", and install some lights in the void, you should see what they're hiding. Then just undo all the actions in buy mode so that you don't affect the tomb, then exit buy mode.

Sorry for the rebump, but I came across this thread today and tweeted SimGuruGraham who tweeted Ray Mazza (I believe he's the Creative Director for Sims), and found out it's just a calling card / Easter Egg - R for Ray.
