Title: Puzzling Your Mind
Post by: Erik on May 28, 2006, 09:28:04 AM
Here's a question for you: What are all the puzzles like in the game?  ??? Can you give us an example of one that you made for the game?

Deloria's correct. XD

Unfortunately, we can't reveal any of the game's puzzles.  All I can say is their difficulty ranges from obviously simple to really making you think.  8)

Will there be an infamous illogical puzzle?

I get the feeling the puzzles will make you pull out your hair and beat your head against the keyboard.  :suffer:   I will do my best not to ask for help with the puzzles.

if one of these  :suffer: popped up when one botched a puzzle and caused random explosions, that would just rule.

(come on! everybody knows energy x cheese = magic wand!)

It's kind of sad that I never really got that far anywhere in the KQ series without a walkthrough or some kind of FAQ.  :'(

At least this time around I won't have to worry about losing the instruction manual. :D  I'm going to make a vow to have this be the first King's Quest game that I finish without any help whatsoever.  I probably just signed my own personal ticket to Hell by making that vow but oh well... guess I'll just have to  :suffer:.  Right?  Did anyone else gather that the characters of King's Quest are all mentally unstable?  I mean who just grabs moldy cheese out of a rat hole or tears the wings off of a dead fly without any reason?  I always found it funny how seemingly simple tasks were always made harder than they had to be.  An example would be having to find a key for a door when you could simply break it open.  Or turning the wizard into a cat when you could simply poison his food.  "I see you have cleaned my chamber pot Gwydon."  "Yes master now try some of this delicious porridge." hehehe
