Can You Beat "The Game"?

[Whitemouse]

Kind of reminds me of Myst.

Kind of reminds me of Myst.

Except that Mysts were much more fun. This is just frustrating and addictive...

Yeah, now I'm stuck on 9 ...

Frustrating and addictive, that's the unfortunate combination!

Up to level 30 now but the last few were just way too easy. I feel like I've missed something.

Nope.

Triple H would massacre me in the wrestling ring... or out of it for that matter.

Even glancing at this theard made me loose the game

That's a different game, which I just lost, thanks to you.

No, definetly not. Though it reminds me of the good ol' games like Space Quests etc, where you had to turn your brains to "special game logic" to work out the puzzles.

Like it's perfectly logical that in order to catch a falling rock you need to rub bubblegum on your helmet and go stand under the rock. So when it falls it gets stuck to your helmet

See, I work better with those games. If I'm given some items to work with, some kind of interactivity, I can often figure out the way to move from there.

Give me a picture of a black rectangle, on a black background with nothing to click, nothing to react to, and utterly empty source code, and I'm totally stumped. Nothing reacts to what I do, and I have no way of knowing if I'm even on the right track. For me, that's not fun.

What game are you talking about here? I don't think I know of it.

What do you normally do when it's dark and you can't see?

Read the instructions again about where to look for hints and what you might need to change.

He misspelled "familiar" on #9. I'm stuck on the second half of that one.

Edit: Nevermind. Onto #10.

Edit2: Now onto 11 . . . or is 12?

 

[RangerWickett]

Okay, totally stuck on the password thing.

Edit: Okay, I got some help on #12, which was sort of cheating. I don't want to cheat any more, but man, I'm having trouble.
