BizFantast's Puzzles

Hey all...

I wrote this game myself, its an online riddle solving game. The gameplay's like NotPron, but instead I was inspired by TheWicked.

Come try it out at BizFantast.

The site requires you to sign on, its for tracking of stats and hall of fame tracking =)

Also, the highest level is currently at level 33, in which no one has reached yet. Hope this fulfil the standards of an ARG... Very Happy


Thanks!

This should be in Timewasters or Various and Sundry, this is not an ARG, please read the rules.

ah.. i am so sorry about that, i read the Quickstart Guide by Imbri and find that my game had the "interaction" stated and thought it might be what an ARG would have.

sorry about all this, now that i'm not able to move this topic away from this forum... can an admin kindly do so? thanks Surprised

Don't worry about it veetian. An admin will take care of it soon enough, and even though it's not an ARG, it looks like a pretty cool Puzzle Trail, and we like those as well Smile.

As for getting the definition wrong, don't worry about that either... we haven't until now come together as a community to state which elements make an ARG and to what extent. There is an initiative going around to do so and explain the finer details. In the case of BizFantast, we could say that there is not immersion and story tie in, even if the puzzles are preceeded with text, you still need a coherent immersive universe with character interaction.

Yeah, no harm no foul. A mod will just move it to another section.

Wink Now you know

Got as far as level 10 and can't seem to find just the right string to put in. The answer seems fairly obvious, but the ability/need to enter multi-word answers in the box keeps messing me up. As does the need to click the submit box, instead of just hitting enter.
EDIT: Decided to give it another shot. The clue asks, "Four words... what has it got to do with this country?" The answer is, "Absolutely nothing".
Oh well... On to level 11 15.

you have solved level 27's riddle, and you need to let Cobe know, so...
you send an email to him.

you need to specify your email address so that Cobe can return to you..

then, decipher Cobe's return... beware, you must provide the CORRECT ANSWER in order to receive the correct response =)


someone reported that AOL user cannot receive my mails... thats weird >_<

Yes, I'v gotten both emails and I know which one I need. I just have no idea what to do with it. Is there a clue on the page?
Feel free to answer me on your forums if you wish veetian, I posted this there too.

Okay, so like half of the wrong guesses on level 15 are mine. I'm obviously in the wrong box. Can I get a hint?
