Phantom Orchid Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Interim Dream Quest - Part I Phantom Orchid had a dream (or was it only an illusion?) in prison, and needs your help to find out what it means. Unfortunately, right now she dreams she is a dream, and her dream (or was it only an illusion?) is all jumbled up. Solve the Sweet dream, or some sort of nightmare? puzzle to begin your journey, and be prepared to plunge yourself into the sea of the subconscious. Where day becomes night, and night becomes day Where there is madness, where there is confusion Where lines and boundaries are blurred And emotions are likely to run high. Poe is effectively trapped and can offer no assistance at this Time. (I will give at least 1 gold coin (if/when I get out of jail) to the first person who finishes part I. Not sure if the TKs are still running or whatnot, but this is open for sponsorship if anyone is feeling generous :) ) Edited June 22, 2013 by Phantom Orchid Amoran Kalamanira Kol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rikstar Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I tried the puzzle, did the borders. But after that I quit. Because I spend already some hours on it, and it would take me a way too long time to just find the right pieces. Because everything is black, I did not had a reference point. And I don't want to spend 10-15 hours on this. So maybe make it less pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 *claps* Good job on finishing the borders. I stop as soon as i see how many piece are there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Chewett Posted June 22, 2013 Root Admin Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Quite honestly there are way too many pieces for someone to do it, it might be fun as a real puzzle, where i could take weeks doing it, but as a quest, especially if its needed for part two, would take many hours. I agree with Rik and Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARK DEMON Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Same... it's too much :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Orchid Posted June 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Its difficulty relates to how significant the dream content is. But if it is too much I can always come up with an easier (and less exciting) one. How about this, I'll leave it and just add a different, easier branch. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikstar Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I think that's better, although I still think when you add an easier one that nobody would solve the harder. Maybe make the reward very good or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Sands Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I don't think the difficulty is a problem, it's obviously supposed to take forever to solve just by the sheer amount of pieces. The reason i'm not going to do it is because i did the borders one day, but when i came back the puzzle didn't save. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valldore Nal Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 The not saving part together with the fact that i can't use the space beyond the borders for storing of pieces is why i dropped the idea of trying it too :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 and btw, i think the background could use another color. The current one is not very helpful. It is impossible (for me) to see the borderline of white pieces. Zyrxae 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Orchid Posted June 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) Somebody has come out of the nightmare and into a beautiful dream - somebody has also earned a gold coin. Congratulations to... wait for it... AmberRune!! Part I will end when I get out of jail. I have no creatures and most of my coin is promised elsewhere; however, for others who finish I can offer some enchanted stones from my inventory.

Phantom Orchid Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Congratulations to Dan for completing the puzzle! not exactly came to my mind when i revealed this image, but during the time i put the pieces together, a thought came to my mind. "nightmares are broken dreams." When the pieces were yet put together, they were chaostic, and formless. They were as terrifying as nightmares should be. But once the pieces were worked out, the nightmare transformed. A beautiful scene appeared, calm and serene. My eyes was captured by the magnificent [spoiler]. Nothing else mattered.
