The 39 Steps

[Sleepyhead]

how many images are we supposed to be linking on level 18?
5? are they actually ALL related?

a painting (no idea what of, who of or who by), not able & some numbers (?) which i cant read at any level of zoom, a tennis racket, baby crying, latin wolf, an easel and NOMD?

don't know if you know it,if you do tennis and wolf pics will be enough to find the answer send me a pm if you have too much problems with it

cheerkrazedgurl :for level -9 look carefully at the title (shape) then think mysterious place if you still have problems let me know it and please have a bit of patience people don't always recall good the levels and we need to go back to check or read our notes

[aahpanda]

on -7...... read all the clues and people talk about the kitty clue?? and converting the numbers??? making a 5 letter word???? thats all the information i hav but i have no idea how to use it!! totally lost someone plz help me asap.......... thnx!

[brainisdead]

ahhpanda. use the 2nd image to make those sets of numbers into letters.
each set makes 1 letter. you'll end up with a 5 letter word because the biggest letter is looking RIGHT at you ;-)
PM for more help if you need it.

bon chance, viel gluck & good luck (multi lingual and a cute kitten!) ;-)

Thanks to everyone for the continued support and patience in playing the game!

Interesting to know that riddlers from all over the world are playing.

Top 3 so far, by number of players:

1. Turkey
2. US
3. UK

why is it for the "handwritten clues" you use such an unreadable font?
I've reached so many levels now where I can't read a clue because the font is too fuzzy. couldn't you have chosen something a bit clearer?

stuck on level 21 with no clues. 2 blank signs & a bunch of animals.

[mousquines]

hey brainisdead, stuck on same.....

[Itadakiman]

I have already gotten the same comments from my "test audience" regarding that font. I kind of like it. (They didn't..)

There is one level that is 5 pages written fully with this font

But I've made an easier, less stressing version of it.

The level you're on: there is something to be found on page 2. It will tell you what to do with page 1. page 3 you need only at the very end.

[brainisdead]

yeah. i found it. it didnt help. if anything it confused me even more.

so you completely ignored your test audience? odd thing, isnt the whole point of a test audience to improve a game but you took no notice of them at all?
speaks volumes really, doesn't it?

[Itadakiman]

the test audience did a great job of helping with the hints. it wasn't a serious dislike towards the font

but if I ever make another riddle game, I will definitely not use the same and so many types of fonts.

[brainisdead]

i quit at level 23.
these "clues" are really TOO obscure. i've solved maybe 3 or 4 levels alone.

a game needs to be playable and enjoyable to keep someones interest.
being too hard to even get started on a level is not a way to keep a players interest.
Its far more likely to alienate your players and have them quitting in droves.
Thats just MY opinion though. Consider it & bear it in mind if you decide to write another riddle. Along with how unpopular using flash was & making us type the password twice.

I wish you luck in any future riddle you may create but you've lost me as a player.

Damar and me completed the riddle we would like to says thanks to Itadakiman for the great work making this riddle and the help offered is been really challenging and hope we can see soon the second part of 39 steps

[Itadakiman]

Congratulations!

You guys were awesome and as far as I know the first ones to complete the riddle

@ brainisdead: thanks for your comments. however I would not like to see you go. The riddle is hard, yes, but we are here to help anytime. You have completed like 33 levels already. not many people can say that since the riddle was launched. if you feel like so, take a break, but it would be nice to see you back soon.

If I ever get to make another riddle, I will take into consideration your feedbacks and I really appreciate your efforts. (on level 23 there's a small calculation you need to make and use the result with the rest of the information in google )

[brainisdead]

did the calc but it then says base 10 but your answer IS ALREADY IN base 10!
stupid level!

[Sleepyhead]

stupid level!

i'll send you some help

[brainisdead]

if you mean binary say that. dont say base ten.
the answer you work out is ALREADY IN base 10.
I had quit before, I'm 10 times more quit now.
