PROLOGUE
========
The game starts off with the Professor and Luke driving to their next job. You
are given an introduction to the story of the game. As you approach the town,
you are given your first puzzle:

——————————————————————————-
Puzzle No. 001 : Where’s the Town?
Picarats : 10
Hint : “My village is on a road that leads to no other towns. I look
forward to seeing you there.”
Use your stylus to draw a circle around the right village, and then
touch submit.
Solution : There are 5 towns, following the roads leading out of each city,
find the one with roads that all lead to dead ends.
If you can’t figure it out, it’s the upper left town. Circle it and
press submit.

After solving the puzzle, our friends get to the outskirts of the village, and
discover that the drawbridge into the village is raised. When given the
chance, talk (tap) to the drawbridge operator (Franco) across the other side
of the moat. He gives, you the next puzzle to solve.

——————————————————————————-
Puzzle No. 002 : The Crank and Slot
Picarats : 15
Hint : There’s no way to lower the bridge without inserting the crank into
the correct slot!
Choose the slot that fits the crank shown below.
Solution : You can tap the crank to change the viewing angle, but you don’t
really need to. Looking at the pentagon and shapes sticking out the
sides, you can see that the solution is 1.
——————————————————————————-

Franco lowers the bridge for you, and you enter the village.

You are now given the instructions on moving around, but before going
anywhere, talk to the old lady (Ingrid) on the left.

——————————————————————————-
Puzzle No. 003 : Strange Hats
Picarats : 10
Hint : These four top hats are all the same height, but the length of each
brim is different. In other words, the hats are equally tall but
vary in with.
One of these four hats has a brim and height that are of the same
length. Which hat is it?
Solution : An optical illusion, but easily solved with a ruler. Or if you’re
lazy, just select hat A.

Puzzle No. 004 : Where’s My House?
Picarats : 20
Hint : Can you find my house?
Go out of the front door of my place and turn left. At the first
intersection you come across, take a right, Turn right again at the
following intersection, and you’ll come face to face with the
morning sun.
Circle my house.
Solution : First of all, you need to know that the sun rises in the east. And
then work backwards through the instructions, and you can make out
the following path:

Puzzle No. 005 : Digital Digits
Picarats : 50
Hint : Imagine the digital clock like the one shown below. How many times
will the clock display three or more of the same number in a row
over the course of one day?
In case you were wondering, the clock in this puzzle displays time
on a 12-hour scale, not military time.
Solution : Get a pen and paper and just list them out (from 12:00 to 11:59):
12:22, 01:11, 02:22, 03:33, 04:44, 05:55, 10:00, 11:10, 11:11,
11:12, 11:13, 11:14, 11:15, 11:16, 11:17, 11:18, 11:19
Thats just over a 12 hour period, so over one day, the answer is 34
times.

Puzzle No. 006 : Light Weight
Picarats : 40
Hint : Here we have eight small weights that all look the same. However
one of the weights in the group is slightly lighter than the rest.
Using this scale two times, you can find out which of these weights
is lighter than the rest.
So, which weight is the light one?
Solution : 1) Weigh three weights on each side. If:
> they are even (2a)
> they are uneven (2b)
2a) take the remaining 2 weights and weigh for the lighter weight
2b) take the lighter 3 weights, put one on each side of the scale,
and take the remaining one out. If:
> they are even (3a)
> they are uneven (3b)
3a) the weight you took out is the lighter one
3b) the weight on the lighter side of the scale is the correct
weight

Puzzle No. 008 : Farm Work
Picarats : 20
Hint : Alfred and Roland have been hired by a farm to sow flower seeds.
They’ve been assigned a 10-acre plot of land and split it in half
so they can work independently. Roland starts from the east and
Alfred from the west.
Alfred can plow the land at a rate of 20 minutes per acre. Roland
takes 40 minutes to plow, but sows seeds at three times the speed
Alfred does.
If sowing seeds on the 10-acre plot pays $100, how much of that
money should go to Roland?
Solution : Since they split the land evenly, pay should also be split evenly
regardless of how long it took. The answer is therefore $50.

in exactly 20 minutes. Their only chance of survival is the
five-person life raft stowed on their vessel. To make matters
worse, the waters around tje ship are teeming with man eating
sharks, so swimming to safety is out of the question.
A round trip to the nearest island and back to the boat takes
nine minutes on the raft. How many people will live to see dry land?
Solution : You can make 3 round trips in 20 minutes. But you can only save 4
people at a time as one person has to be the driver, therefore 12
people plus the driver survive, so the answer is 13.

little triangles.
Dipping your fountain pen into the ink one time gives you just
enough ink to draw four little triangles, as depicted by the shape
on the left.
So, with that in mind, how many times do you have to dip your pen

Puzzle No. 118 : Red and Black Cards
Picarats : 50
Hint : A jokerless deck of 52 cards sits on the table. The cards are
shuffled thoroghly and divided into two stacks of 26 cards labeled
A and B.
If you divide the cards as described above and check the contents
of each pile 1,000 times, how many times could you expect the
number of red cards in one pile to match the number of black cards
in the other?
Solution : It's just some simple math:
Let x be the number red cards in pile A, so in pile B, there are
26-x red cards
Therefore, in pile B, since 26-x are red, 26-(26-x) are black,
which equals x (which is the amount of red cards in pile A).
So, the answer is that 1,000 of 1,000 times you will have the same
amount of red cards in A as black cards in B.

Puzzle No. 026 : Bottle Full of Germs
Picarats : 20
Hint : A glass jar holds a single germ. After one minute, the germ slits
into two germs. One minute after that, the two germs each split
again, forming a total of four germs. Continuing at this rate, a
single germ can multiply to fill a whole jar in exactly one hour.

to you, you’d be twice my age, huh!”
“Well, why don’t you just give me one more on top of that? Then
I’ll be three times your age.”
So just how old is each sibling?
Solution : You can just use trial and error, but I like maths
Let x=age of bro
Let y=age of sis

From statement 1: 2(x-2)=y+2
From statement 2: 3(x-3)=y+3

And solve: 2(x-2)=3(x-3)-1
2x-4=3x-10
x=6, y=6

Therefore, the age of both siblings is 6.

Puzzle No. 042 : The Camera and Case
Picarats : 50
Hint : While walking through a market on vacation, you notice a small
stand selling cameras. A camera-and-case set is selling for $310.
The seller tells you that the camera costs $300 more than the case
itself and that the case costs the price of the set minus the cost
of the camera.
You decide you’d rather wait on buying a camera and oopt to just
buy the case alone.
You hand the seller a $100 bill and see his eyes light up. Think
fast now!
How much change should you be getting back?
Solution : Maths!
Let x = cost of camera
Let y = cost of case

x=y+300
y=310-x

x=310-x+300
x=305, y=5

Therefore, the case costs $5, and you should get $95 change.

son and says:
“You know, son, there was a time when your old man was twice the
age of your mother. Of course, the next year, I was the only one
and a half times her age, but still, that’s pretty amazing, eh?”
If the father is exactly 44 years old now, how old is the mother?
Solution : Maths!

Let x = age of father
Let y = age of mother

In 1st statement: x=2y
In 2nd statement: x+1=1.5(y+1)

Solving that: 2y+1=1.5y+1.5
0.5y=0.5
y=1, x=2

Now, the dad is 44, the mother is 43.
