The correct answer to the last puzzle, “Clean Your Room”, was INDOOR EXTREME SPORTS STATEN ISLAND. At Indoor Extreme Sports on Staten Island, you and your friends can enjoy paintball, laser tag, escape-the-room, and virtual reality adventures. There’s even a haunted “zombie experience”! What could be a better treat for a bunch of kids who have successfully cleaned their rooms?
In this puzzle, you needed to figure out the correct sequence of moves to slide each child’s room into alphabetical order (as illustrated in the “Goal for a Tidy Room” section). The answers were:
Abby (red):
- 1 down, 2 left
- 1 down, 3 right
- 1 up, 1 left
- 2 down, 1 right, 2 up
- 2 left
- 2 up, 1 left
Benny (green):
- 1 left, 2 down
- 1 left, 3 up
- 1 right, 1 up
- 2 left, 1 down
- 2 right, 1 up
- 2 right, 1 down, 2 left
Carly (blue):
- 1 down, 3 left
- 1 up, 2 right, 1 down
- 1 up
- 1 up, 3 right
- 2 left
- 2 left, 1 down
Daisy (orange):
- 1 up, 1 left
- 2 down, 1 left
- 2 up
- 3 down, 2 left
- 3 right, 1 down
- 3 up, 1 right
Emmy (purple):
- 1 right, 3 down
- 2 left, 3 up
- 2 right
- 2 right, 2 down
- 3 left, 2 up
- 3 left 2 up
When each of these moves is clicked, the first letter to slide is recorded on the webpage. Clicking all of the above moves in order spells out the words in the final answer: INDOOR, EXTREME, SPORTS, STATEN, and ISLAND.
This week’s first-place Fastest Solver was Please Clap, followed by teams Methwazord in second and Skrew-its in third! Great job, everyone!
