When I'm not here...
Nov 9th, 2006 at 10:06pm
 
I'm here!  www.weffriddles.com/level1.html

This is a set of really addictive riddles that are sometimes really easy and sometimes really...not.  I've loved going through them, and they give my brain something to pick at during my downtimes and make me feel like I'm doing something more intelligent than trying to decode my toddler's baby talk.  Even the rules are a riddle!

Have fun!

A long time.  A whole day, I think...I was overthinking the issue.  I was trying all kinds of synonyms of dark, in the dark, putting in words like "clueless", etc...I think I even put in "desperate" at one time   Grin (In fact, I think I've put that in on a number of levels and it hasn't worked yet!)  Anyway, the answer was nothing to do with words for dark or light.  What worked was finding a way to make words in the dark visible.  PM me if you want a spoiler hint.

Ah... I don't feel so bad that it took me about an hour to get the first answer.  Cool  Whipped thru several without much trouble.  Too bad I don't have more time to play with it!

I love it, I love it!
ScrapGirl I love word games and thinking puzzles.Thanks for posting that link!

I have one question. Do I need to have sound in my pc, too? I am using a pc without any sound drivers installed, actually pretty basic windows and no multimedia enhancements whatsoever. I am asking because I saw something about sound being mentioned.

One more question. Is each page a level? Or do you need to go through a certain number of pages to complete a level?

thank you!

*Most* pages are each a level.  Occasionally, you'll run into a two- or three-part level.  There are currently 4 batches of levels, roughly 20 or so levels per batch.

As for sound, I'm currently stuck on (the real) level 44 (translation--I've done 48 levels) and have only needed it once; I believe it was level 36.  Feel free to PM me when you get there and I will be happy to provide you with the answer for that one.  I have not yet seen a movie either, but lots of picture clues.

Good luck!  I love this game and am quite addicted, sadly.  Wink

Aaarrrrrgggghhhh!  I'm stuck on level 41 and CANNOT figure it out.  I have the numbers but can't figure out the title.  I blame this all on you, Scrap Girl!   Angry   Family is unfed, laundry is not done, no food in the house, I stayed up waaaay too late last night.  Undecided

I do love a good mind game.   Smiley  Greek Lady - watch out, you too will get hooked!

LOL...I knew it would hook you. Wink  You said level 41, right?  Have you tried "megaphoning" the phrases off to the right of the picture?  Once you figure out what that *really* says, you'll have better idea of what those numbers relate to.

Krystal

PS..if you breeze through "the real" 44, will you drop me a hint?   Wink

I'm usually pretty good with the Megaphoning, but this one has me stumped.  I think my brain has a preconceived notion for the ACK, and it keeps coming out ASCII (the programmer in me).  The NIMH keeps being "in image" or the national institute for mental health (- what a joke - I no longer have any mental health!!).

Got a hint to re-direct my brain on this?
