Dee cee,
ReplyDeleteThis time it isn't numbers to alphabet, it's a very well known number you get.
Oh my GOODNESS!!! Level 8.
ReplyDeleteHow did we get from mario to donkey kong??
ReplyDelete@Zoe: Mario is in Donkey Kong too. :)
ReplyDeleteOf course it is...lol!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteSo on level 8, are the words that are bolded in the last sentence crucial to the answer?
ReplyDeletenvm...got it finally...thanks small-tool
ReplyDelete@Zoe: no, they are not important.
ReplyDeletebarrels: OH, I got level 8!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise - I'm stumped on level 9.
ReplyDeletejbg - I'm already giving you 5 stars on this one. It's a great game! I like playing with just hints and not spoilers. Spoilers would ruin a game like this.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, I need a rather large hint for 9...anyone?
ReplyDeleteOn level 9 this text part is very important:
ReplyDeleteJust look at those scores!!!
For level 8 do I count barrels by floor? I don't notice anything.
ReplyDeleteSo do I match the score numbers to letters somehow? And I assume I should add a 1 at the end??
ReplyDeleteVerito: how many barrels are on each level. Look at the number you write down and google it...
ReplyDeleteZoe,
ReplyDeleteNo numbers to alphabet yet. First see a method between those two lines of numbers and then notice on the dots should be numbers too. And those numbers you can make letters to get your answer.
@Zoe: Try and relate the two scores together somehow.
ReplyDeleteVerito - start at the top level...
ReplyDeleteWell, I see that there's an 87 in each score. That's about it.
ReplyDeleteAnd a 15 in the other score. Does it ring a bell?
ReplyDeleteVerito - did you get level 8? If not, just use the last three numbers and put a decimal after the first one of those. Then google it. It's a kind of famous mathematical number. The word is two letters long...
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteOh my! two barrels were falling off the ladders. I hadn't seen those and the number wasn't making sense. Thanks Zoe!
ReplyDeleteno.. no bells ringing in this belfry.
ReplyDeleteProbably full of bats.
ReplyDeleteOn 9...read prior hints, but still not getting it...another push, please?
ReplyDeleteOh, dang. After all this, I have to go take a phone call. I know it will be a long one, so I'll have to come back to this later.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed it immensely, though, and look forward to finishing it.
Thanks jbg for the effort and fun!!
@Zoe:
ReplyDeletejust look at the first two digits of the top score and the first two digits of the bottom score. You can't think of any way to use those top two digits to relate to the bottom two digits?
omg why cant i figure out level 5!
ReplyDelete@jnbennett31:
ReplyDeleteLevel 5 is kind of tricky. Try to break up the words somehow and then count.
I also read previous hints and still nothing.
ReplyDeleteSee you later, @Zoe, I'll still be here!
@Verito:
ReplyDeletetry and figure out how to relate 7 and 8 from the top score to 15 from the bottom score.
I got 15-13-8-11-13-18-1-14
ReplyDeleteI'm back and on level 10 now
ReplyDeletethat isn't the right sequence verito
ReplyDeleteNo idea how to get a word out of that.
ReplyDeletePhew...finally through 9,,,thanks for the great hints
ReplyDeleteThat's the right method Verito, but after using 8 and 7, the next one will be using 7 and 5 from the top so there will be more numbers than what you have.
ReplyDeletei have to go now ,its too late here but i ll continue tomorrow , please dont post any answers yet .bye bye
ReplyDeletebut leave good hints !!!LOL Thank you
ReplyDeleteThanks E Presto and jbg, I got 15 numbers now but I still can't get a word out of that.
ReplyDeleteNo idea how to start 10?? Any hints for this one?
ReplyDeleteyou should get 7 numbers including the 1 Verito
ReplyDeleteWell dee cee I'm there too, I thought the horse might represent a knight but haven't figured out the 11 yet unless we have to go through 11 squares on the board
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if we move like the knight..starting at the S??
ReplyDelete@Verito:
ReplyDeleteYes you should get the 15 numbers, but some of them are already shown. Use the ones that aren't
Thanks @jbg, you can't go to bed until I finish the last 3 levels lol!
ReplyDeletedee cee, you're on the right track
ReplyDelete@new: goodnight.
ReplyDelete@E Presto and @dee cee: I'm at the same point with you now.
good Verito!
ReplyDeleteStaring at 11, trying to get down the right pipes..but not getting anything that makes a word
ReplyDeletedee cee, look at the 3 islands and try to see a pattern, then you can get the hidden pattern to pick letters with
ReplyDeleteGot up to see progress and am hopefull!
ReplyDeletegood job peoples!!
I think you should have 5 stars jbg...sorry you don't..
why?
Islands? What did I miss?
ReplyDelete@Zoe:
ReplyDeleteThanks for your compliments. I think a big reason is because a lot of people don't like riddles and they rate the game without even playing it. The rating doesn't really bother me though. All i care about is if the people who play it have fun or not. :)
I can't find a way to pick the letters from the chessboard. And I agree with Zoe.
ReplyDeleteVerito, move like the horse (think chess) and follow the path of the snake, look at the pic to see the basics of the path
ReplyDelete@Verito:
ReplyDeleteUse the text to figure out where to start. Follow the snake to know the path to take. There is no anagram so you will know which way is right.
Well I can get 17 letters...but not getting anything to work... so must not be noticing the correct patterns.
ReplyDeletedee cee, only 11 letters for level 11, 2 words, no anagram
ReplyDeleteTry looking at all the rows as a string of pipes or no pipes in each pic
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Jbg for a great game, I really enjoyed it, and am looking forward to the next one.
ReplyDelete@dee cee : for level 11, try writing the patterns of each island down in lines instead of squares in order to find hidden pattern
ReplyDeleteLevel 10: SPEO...? SIHO...? SPAO...? D:
ReplyDelete@Verito:
ReplyDeleteyou're first one is closest. The "O" is wrong though.
Ohh, I got it! Thanks jbg. Unfortunately I think I'll have to continue later. So close to finishing it.
ReplyDeletelol, I guess that means I can go to bed now. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd, as usual, everyone is racing ahead, while I can't even get started at Level 1.
ReplyDeleteWhat am I missing, somebody please?
MMmm - post lost in transit!
ReplyDeleteOne more try .... can anyone help me past Lev 1 please - what am I missing?
Ashley, look at the first letter of all the words written in bold type.
ReplyDeleteOn 11...do the islands overlap then? As there are 17 pipes?
ReplyDeleteThe islands do not overlap. Look at it as a kind of sequence. So what would be on island 4 ?
ReplyDeleteCan't get the last bit of level four - the one with the numbers in the text and 'read it'. No idea what I am doing/looking for. Any help out there? Thanks in advance - I love these riddles, but I am useless
ReplyDeleteat them!
small-tool...I left a message on fb, so as not to be too spoily here...
ReplyDeleteTime fore work...thanks for all the help
Minxi,
ReplyDeleteI think that's not the last bit, the next part is (but do remember those numbers for the next part!)
On this part, just look at the pic, the numbers on the pic are in the shape of 4 letters (no anagram).
Thank you small tool, but I just can't get it - do you mean to look at the numbers in the game? So 6 = N?
ReplyDeleteNope, just the numbers on the pic. You have to use a bit of imagination to see letters.
ReplyDeleteOn the first block (the one the left) those little numbers make the shape of a W
Thanks, but I'm still stuck - is the 2nd letter 'A'? And what sort of work am I looking for?
ReplyDeleteSorry - word
ReplyDeleteYep correct.
ReplyDeleteTwo more letters to go :)
try seeing the letters where there are no numbers minxi
ReplyDeleteThanks jbg. I must have learned some lessons because i have been able to get to the end part of lvl 4 without help, but after two hours of adding 3's, minusing 4's etc....i still cant get any letters AT ALL. Am i pretending to see the word and doing the adding and minusing of those numbers, or am i still using the W word? I have got myself into a completely confused muddle and need a hint of the 'please tell me what to do' kind.
ReplyDeleteYep Clio, the text is: That's half of it.
ReplyDeleteSo you have to add the 5 letter word to your previous answer.
Hi Clio, those numbers must ring a bell : go back one page. How do you get from one W word to the other?
ReplyDeleteThanks small and EP. My problem is...I could easily see how one W word became the other W word...what i cant do is make the C word into another word. I dont know why..but i just end up making doodles..and NOTHING that looks like a letter. I think im misunderstanding something VERY badly.
ReplyDeletethe c word won't become a word straight away, anagram needed
ReplyDeleteThanks again EP, but i cant get any letters from the C word using the minusing and plussing. Im sooooo confused....
ReplyDeleteClio, have you found which letter goes with which number?
ReplyDeleteokay, so to go from one w word to the other, you had to remove one letter and add another : but how did you know which to remove and which to add?
ReplyDeleteThank you st and ep - got it finally!!
ReplyDeletewell done minxi!
ReplyDeleteHi - I'm back, but have to go fairly soon. I figured out level 9 finally. The answer is an anagram of the letters you get.
ReplyDeleteI'm now on 10 and have the first word, but am getting lost on the chessboard for the second word. From what I can see it starts with either a z,i,m or o. If anyone can tell me which one of those letters is correct, I can move on...thanks!
Second word starts with your first letter Zoe :)
ReplyDeleteThanks small-tool! Got it!
ReplyDeleteI've got the same problem Clio had. I can figure out how to get from the first w word to the second, but none of my answers are working: I assume you add an 's' and it's an anagram of oznes + warp/wart.
ReplyDeleteAnd I assume you put it in the answer box of the previous one. Thank you for your assistance!!!
minxi,
ReplyDeleteAnagram oznes and add it to your previous answer.
Thank you!! It worked!!
ReplyDeleteOn 11, is the middle island an X?
ReplyDeleteZoe,
ReplyDeleteIt looks like an X, but that's not important. Those 3 top islands aren't letters, but a method.
Try to find a pattern (like in a sequence with numbers or so where you have to find the next numbers).
So figure out what happens when going from island one to island two and then to island 3 and then do that method on island 4 to pick letters from the grid there.
Thank you minxi for giving me the letters. I was still stuck, and had to use ALL the hints given. On to level five..
ReplyDeleteNo prob clio - and when you have figured out level 5, please give me a hint. Confused again. I'm thinking are they the same letters that appear in 'mario' but can't work it out.
ReplyDeleteRead it as pro·fes·sor E. Gadd
ReplyDeleteand then you know why it's 5
I'm back. Is there any hint for level 12? No one commented on it so far?
ReplyDeleteVerito,
ReplyDeleteThe best hint is the pic name!!!
So where to look?
Oh, look! There're tiny letters!
ReplyDeleteLevel 6 - or maybe level 5 part 2. The mushroom thing - I'm typing in a number, but I get the same picture back - not error 404 - can anyone explain?
ReplyDeleteAny hint for green mushroom at 5? im stuck since yesterday.
ReplyDeletelucia: The green mushroom represents something in the mario games. It gives an extra "something" combine the first part answer with that second part (think of the cat and what happens to it if it gets hurt).
ReplyDeleteLevel 5:
ReplyDeleteThat green mushroom gives mario something in the mario games. Combine that with the number you have. It might also help to look at the picture of the cat for inspiration. :)
Thnks zoe and jbg. Im finally at level 6.
ReplyDeleteHi! I have read all the post to level 9, but I do not understand how to get a sequence with the numbers. Have to be applied to the text?. Thanks
ReplyDeletePichi, notice the ... after the 2nd score? try to do something to the numbers of the top score to get the bottom numbers, then complete the series after the ... and use that part to convert. Don't overlook the text hint too.
ReplyDeletepichi: It's a matter of addition...
ReplyDeleteDonas thanks, but I still do not understand, I do not know what else to do with these numbers.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I do not speak English, so I do not understand, the translator is a bit poor lol
Donas: I've read all the help and everything I can find about level 11, and still can't figure it out. Even small-tool's hint evades me. I need a big push for it. Maybe you can help me?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
pichi, add the first and second numbers of the top line to get the first number of the bottom line, then add the 2nd and 3rd numbers of the top to get the 2nd number of the bottom, keep going like that to the end
ReplyDeletepichi: 8+7 = 15. Do you see it?
ReplyDeleteZoe, try writing out each island like a string of morse, . for a barrel, - if no barrel. then look at the 3 strings for each island and try to project what the 4th island would be, that will show you which letters to pick
ReplyDeleteOk...so
ReplyDeletefirst row:
dot, dot, dot, dot, dash, dot, dot, dash, dash
second row:
dot, dot, dot, dash, dot, dash, dot, dash, dash
third row:
dot, dot, dot, dot, dash, dot, dot, dash, dash
I don't see what dot's or dashes come next for the life of me!!!
Donas Zoe thanks. I think I've seen it, now I try the solution
ReplyDeleteZoe you have to write it down for 1st island then 2nd island then 3rd
ReplyDeleteZoe, do 1 island at a time, . and - might make it clearer
ReplyDeletepichi: there is a trick part: the numbers that are not there as you go along and add them up will be translated into letters, but remember that there should also be a #1 added to the beginning (or when you get the word, add an extra letter "a"). The answer is an anagram of SEVEN letters (not six).
ReplyDeleteI still can't figure out 12. Is it very obvious? I tried the invisible line 'there' where the pic name says but got nothing.
ReplyDeleteVerito, start at each letter and move only in the direction of the arrows and only once for each arrow
ReplyDeleteLevel 9
ReplyDeleteI've got nine numbers, I pass letters and anagram, but nothing is right. I am I missing something?
Got it!! Thanks!!
ReplyDeletepichi, level nine should only have 7 letters
ReplyDeleteI think I get the pattern? The first row has no dashes, the second row has one dash between the dots, the third row has two dashes between the dots, so the fourth must have three dashes between the dots? How does that relate to the grid with letters? I know - I'm hopeless...yet determined!
ReplyDeleteZoe, apply the 4th pattern to the grid, keep repeating it until the end, pick a letter for each pipe (dot)
ReplyDeleteZoe,
ReplyDeleteNow pick letters on the grid (where the dots/pipes are). No anagram.
BOOOOOOM!!!
ReplyDeleteSo level 12. The only clue I see above is smal-tool's hint to Verito: the best hint is the pic name!!! so where to look.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading that looking at the source wasn't necessary, but I did anyway and saw nothing...
Look down in real life :)
ReplyDeleteI get "t;esxsl", why? why? I looked carefully.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking down in real life at my keyboard and I see similar to Verito...except my last letter is ""o" not "l"
ReplyDeleteVerito
ReplyDeleteX is wrong (it's 3 arrows there)
And for ; go to the other side where a letter is.
I'm so glad we're back at it at the same point, Verito. I don't feel so totally lost - lol!!
ReplyDeleteFinally! I got the 'Congrats' screen. :D
ReplyDeleteMe too, Zoe!!
@jbg: thank you for the game! You may go to bed now rofl. I enjoyed it despite the difficulties I had. :D :D Good job.
Yay, congrats Verito :)
ReplyDelete@Donas & small-tool: thank you for all the hints and help and for being here all the time to assist. You are very kind. c:
ReplyDeleteNow I'm getting t?escsl. The "L" can be a 'k', an 'o' or a 'p' on my keyboard?
ReplyDeleteHOLY COW - I'm out!!!
ReplyDeleteYay Congrats Zoe :)
ReplyDeleteYou're a real riddler now :P Welcome to the gang.
YAY!!! Good for US Verito!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Verito and Zoe!!
ReplyDeleteHow would we have done it without you Donas! And small-tool and E Presto and so MANY others.
ReplyDeleteThanks JBG!!! Great game. If you make another I promise I will be the masochist that I am and play it!!!
Thank you!!! And congrats to you too, Zoe. After so many hours working on it feels so good to have finished it, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteNext riddle we play it along again, ok? ;)
Yay, now I'm a riddler!!! (More like a joker, but oh well!!)
ReplyDeleteSounds good Verito!!! We can limp along again, long after all the others are out! Hahaha!!
ReplyDeleteWell done on finishing Verito and Zoe. :)
ReplyDelete@Verito: I'm so glad that I can finally get some sleep. lol

ReplyDeleteLevel 10
ReplyDeleteI have read that there are two words, and I can not even get the first.
One is with the horse and the other is with the snake? this is very difficult for me, someone please help me? Thanks
@small-tool - hilarious!!!
ReplyDeletepichi:
ReplyDeleteyou have to know in chess how the knight (horse) moves. Then you start at the "S" at the bottom of the chessboard, and end where the other black dot is on the upper left of the board. That spells the two words. The knight(horse) follows the shape of the snake on the board (S). I hope that helps.
@pichi: maybe if you read comments @9:29 PM and @9:44 PM help you get started?
ReplyDeleteGo it! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIn level 12, any hints please? I know it's with the keyboard
pichi: follow the directions of the arrows on your keyboard for each letter on mario. The first letter is F, and there are two arrows that go up and right so go to F on your keyboard, and go up and right...etc.
ReplyDeleteThe keyboard has to be a "qwerty" style keyboard.
pichi: once you get all the letters, it's an anagram. One of the best anagram sites that I use is "winscrabble.com"
ReplyDelete@pichi:
ReplyDeleteYou need to change each letter to a different letter. Every green arrow is important in picking the right letter.
Final! Thanks to all who have helped me. and thanks to: jbg has been great, I hope for the next!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
Yay, congrats Pichi :)
ReplyDeletehas been very well, thank you, I was wrong the castle and rescue, haha, thanks
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Eva :)
ReplyDeleteand here i am again ...LOL, at 5 2nd part
ReplyDeletenew: you know what the pic? and do not forget to add your last response
ReplyDeleteI am so useless, I have looked at the first page several times now and can't even figure out a direction to go. I certainly don't know Mario games:( Not usually this hopeless with riddle games. Help?
ReplyDeletethanks pichi ,on 6 now
ReplyDeleteI am so useless, I have looked at the first page several times now and can't even figure out a direction to go. I certainly don't know Mario games:( Not usually this hopeless with riddle games. Help?
ReplyDeletedayamayii,
ReplyDeleteIf you mean level 1, then it's just the first letters of those bold words. No anagram.
dayamayii, 1st level ?
ReplyDeletereally? thanks ST. I just expected it to be a word. (facepalm)
ReplyDeleteThnks jbg, this was my first english riddle and it was really fun.
ReplyDeleteI am now stuck on level 9. I have read all the hints but still don't understand how 87 relates to 15. May i have a hint or a semi-tell-me-what-to-do, please?
ReplyDeleteClio - I'm where you are - I've got that 8+7 =15 and 7+5 = 12 and 5+8=13 and 9+2=11. So far the unused numbers are 3 and 5 = the 1 we're told to add, but now I'm totally stumped. Again!
ReplyDeleteThanks minxi. Sorry for the late reply.
ReplyDeleteooo....got it minxi. Thank you so much. Use the leftovers at the end of the top sequence 79 99 90 01 17 77 the 1.
ReplyDeleteminxi...I got lvl 10 !! I used the hints above, but if you are stuck it is two words. First word is 7 letters and second word 4 letters.
ReplyDeleteThanks clio! I'm stuck as usual. Got s p a but nothing else yet. Thanks for the tips!!
ReplyDeletefor lvl 10, firstletters are spe**** then z***
ReplyDeleteHope that helps
YAYYYYY...i suddenly worked out what lvl 11 was about...I'm on 12...eeeps...hahhaha...
ReplyDeleteok..im stuck on 12. Using Zoe's hint of 2.40pm, i think the first letter is a T, but the next Mario starts at L and goes one right which is a semi-colon? I think I've misunderstood what to do...again. May i have a hint please?
ReplyDeleteYayyyy Clio, well done, looks like you breezed through lots of levels!
ReplyDeleteClio, that L gave me trouble as well, maybe think of a loop
ReplyDeleteThank EP. Do you mean like...a loop as in...i went so far right that i circumnavigated the world and popped back out on the left hand side at A?
ReplyDeletethat is what I mean!
ReplyDeleteSHAZNATZ !!! HAHAHAHHHA...i finished it.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much jbg. I give you five stars because that was super enjoyable.
Thank you so much everyone for all your help. x x
I reckon it's time for a beer. Cheers all. *clink*
yay! clink
ReplyDeleteE Presto I'm stuck with clio on the last level too! Please help! I've got T Y A W E S X C S D K L Y.
ReplyDeleteUseless!
minxi..follow the arrows till you hit the next mario. So....t...then a...then e...etc. dont stop on each arrow.
ReplyDeleteoh...and where i had a choice of C or X..i used C. Where i had a choice of S or D, i used S. I have your beer on ice ready to be popped, minxi. x
ReplyDeleteI've already poured myself a glass of red, thank you! I think one of the words will be success. Not sure of the rest.
ReplyDeleteit is a 7 letter word minxi. If i were you, i would use from your quesie at 6.34am...your first, third, fifth, sixth, eighth, ninth and twelfth.
ReplyDeletesorry, I hadn't refreshed, what letters do you have now minxi?
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much clio for your help. And small tool and e presto. I'm DONE!!! I can't believe I finished it. I think I found it so hard cos I'm navigationally challenged LOL and know nothing about super mario. But thanks so much to the makers. Look forward to the next one! Have a beer on me clio!! And I'm going to have another glass of wine.
ReplyDeleteyay minxi! jbg will be really pleased to know you enjoyed it I will "clink" with you too (10 am here so with glass of orange juice!)
ReplyDeleteYAYYYY...cheers to us minxi !! Thank YOU for all your help, and of course to small, EP, Zoe, Verito and the others. I read ALL the hints when i was stuck...LOL
