Telltale Games

Hey guys, I had this neat idea to make my own treasure hunt quest... I came up with a series of unnecessarily crypic and bazzare riddles that lead you somewhere in the jungle, lets see who can solve them and figure out where you end up at! (its actually kinda simple, lol)

But you guys can come up with your own hunts as well (remember that the wind directions for each node, where the one-way paths lead, and the animal sounds never change.)

P.S. do not use the online treasure hunt game, as it does not allow you to use the weather vane, which is needed for my hunt.

here ye go...

The whishfull quest

Be warned: Read this quest step by step else ye be lost.

#1) Ye quest begin at the path where one can hear the sound of four, two, and no legged blood animals.

#2) From there follow the song.

#3) From there, head in the direction of man.

#4) From there, follow that which which is smallest.

#5) From there, check the wind, if whatever direction its pointing is north... go east.

#6) From there, go against the path of the Wind.

#7) Choose the path that takes you the farthest from your current position.

#8) Follow the manatee.

#9) Follow the symbol of the manatee again.

#10) You are only reading this quest, not making any moves yet, right?

#11) If not, then ye must find your way from the water back to the start in 2 moves or less.

#12) Your first move from here, is to follow the sound of food.

#13) Go againt the wind.

#14) Head south.

Where does this leave you?

The kitchen?

tgeorgic · 07/22/2009, 06:15 am

that should put you right in the middle of downtown Berlin.

monkey island?

GaryCXJk · 07/22/2009, 07:22 am

Bewildered.

coolsome · 07/22/2009, 07:38 am

more frightened and confused then that pig shaped bush made me

Maxilyah · 07/22/2009, 08:55 am

It took me to the corner of Bellam and Anderson, near that one taqueria that I think uses way too much cilantro, though Max disagrees.

Dangerzone · 07/22/2009, 01:32 pm

Heh, if you explore the jungle *IN* the game with the riddles, they do actually lead somewhere. (nowhere special mind you, but the fun is in solving it)

Spend some time on it and figure it out

HINT: The first clue tells you which "Y" intersection to begin at

I'd be okay with that. I kinda like Lost.

I found a stump at the end of your directions. I poked my head into it and I came out in the forests of Melee Island!

I stopped watching it when the Hatch imploded.

octochan · 07/22/2009, 09:38 pm

Hey, isn't this like the 'Neverending Cheat to unlock Homestar' game? Can I start putting in ridiculous instructions now?

Dangerzone · 07/22/2009, 09:49 pm

*sigh* im serious... treat this just like one of the in-game maps...

Go to the "Y" path that has the nose-less idol, then follow the rest of the clues.

(the clue said four, two and no legged animals... thats pigs, monkeys, and birds... understand the clue now?)

Once you think you have reached the correct end... post what landmark it put you at... its simple in theory, but i made my riddles somewhat difficult.

Just try it out and see, its fun!
