Walkthrough:

Day One

Visit the Journal and click on the button that says To the puzzle. That will take you to a game where you must help Scrap sort all of the various items on the ship into a neat square. The game is a little like Tetris or Tangrams, and most (if not all) people have different puzzles. It usually helps to put the oddly-shaped pieces together first and fit the rest around them, but there are many techniques to use.

If you get stuck, feel free to post a screenshot in this thread to ask for help. Make sure your images are under 500 pixels wide. Any larger and you'll stretch people's screens. If your image is wider than that, please link to it.

Once you're done, click Submit. You will have to solve 3 of these puzzles in all, and the procedure's the same for each of them. When you're done with your third one, you can sit back and wait for more news!

I FINISHED THE 3RD PUZZLE!

[Catgrrrrrrl]

I really think that some are harder than others, just like at the end of the Haunted Woods plot, where some potions were harder than others.

If anyone is feeling bored, I posted a link to mine on page 6 last night, and again on page 10 this morning Sad

My husband is working on that one. I printed it out, cut it up, and started trying to piece it together. Yours is hard! When I said so, the Mr asked if he could play. lol.

i actually found all the puzzles very easy to do , i think i only tok like a total of 5 minutes to do them all (i had to refresh though cause one of the puzzles went glitchy)

[Karnatu]

I finished the 3rd right now. But what happened? Just a picture with the captain looking at us? What are we supposed to do now?

[Catgrrrrrrl]

Mine were really easy too, but Cookie over here has a really hard one.

Turns out I drew the grid wrong while I was trying to solve it, so there may be help on the way.

o i think i might have had that same one! it took me a while but i dont think i can remember it...ill try

[twinklyspangle]

I can say that I do not think any two puzzles are the same. I have only seen one person with the cross-shaped piece and my friend had three anchors on her second puzzle, it was really hard!!!

Well done to those who have perservered and solved their puzzles

[smudgeoffudge]

Next they could do a puzzle like this:

Scrappy has to load some animals and food onto the boat. He has to cross the plank to get on the boat


Put food here [this is the plank] [ noil, babaa and grain]

He has a barrel of grain, a babaa and a noil.
The noil and the babaa don't like each other and will fight if left alone together. The babaa will eat the grain if it gets a chance. You have to get all three things across the plank and onto the boat, the babaa with you or the grain with you at some point in order to make it across. You can hold one object at a time.


See if you can solve my little riddle and then I will post how to do it.

I just sent neopets the idea.

thank god, I finally solved mine... if anyone was working on it, thank you very much... my tip to problem solvers, when all else fails take a 5 min break, it won't seem so frustrating when you get back also someone elses tip helped me, they said typically the same items aren't grouped together

HELP!!

I'm going insane!

well dont u just take the babaa across the plank first because the noil wont eat the grain, but then see yur stuck with the dilemma of what oine to take next because if you take the grain next an then go back to get the noil the babaa will eat the grain and if you take the noil frist before the grain the the babaa and noil will fight.........
hmmmm...interesting riddle

[Karnatu]

Can someone please tell me what happened now? And what we'll have to do next.

My husband has solved it and we're scanning it in right now

Nothing after the puzzle, nothing else has been released, so just sit tight and I personally willbe doing a little trainging in case of a war!
