Game 31: Tiger's Eye

[dramatispersonae]

[ You step into a simple white circular room with doors lining the walls. Each door is numbered, from 1 to 20, and between every two doors sits a simple box on a pedestal (ie, between 1 and 2 is a box, then 3 and 4, etc). ]

[ In the center of the room sits an open chest with the following items:
A hen made of clay
A loaf of bread
A shoe with a buckle
A bag of dirt
Three poseable maid dolls.
A shovel
Four sticks
A plate ]

[ A piece of paper also sits in the chest, though the words appear to be only a mess of scribbles except to one person... ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[picks up the paper. then turns it around. and around again]

Are these supposed to be words?

Re: DISCUSSION

[highasakite]

Let me take a look.

[COUGHS, then start reading]

Okay guys, this is what it says!

Guide your team from item to door,
To release the tools with which to build
A special treat for you my dears
To keep all things orderly concealed.

Let's start opening doors.

THE DOORS

[dramatispersonae]

Here you may 'open' your doors.

Re: THE DOORS

[worthtempting]

[putting the shoe between the first and second doors, and buckling it, if it's unbuckled]

Re: THE DOORS

[ferrissaves]

[Knocks on the 3rd and 4th doors? :O]

Re: THE DOORS

[reachforthesky]

*5, 6: drops the sticks in the box, then gathers them again!

7, 8: lays them straight in that box.*

Re: THE DOORS

[highasakite]

[puts the plate in the box between doors 19 and 20!]

PART TWO

[dramatispersonae]

[ A small packet of paper floats down from the ceiling once all the pieces of wood and tools have been gathered. This time, the instructions are readable by everyone, though perhaps not the easiest to understand. ]

(( Note: The directions linked are not the exact directions to building the cabinet. However, the instructions your characters received are in a similar format, with 10 'easy' to follow steps.

The screw is also nowhere to be seen in the instructions. ))

. . .

*I call just sitting here and making sure we don't lose any nails or screws or hooks.*

Re: PART TWO

[highasakite]

. . .

H-How are we gonna do this? I don't get it.

Re: PART TWO

[ferrissaves]

Follow the pictures, I guess. It looks like a cabinet or cupboard, with shelves inside.

Re: PART TWO

[worthtempting]

[w-well]

This is not particularly simple.

Re: PART TWO

[ferrissaves]

But we can do it! From the instructions, it looks like a cupboard or something.

Re: PART TWO

[ferrissaves]

[constructs a slightly rickety (we don't have the arm strength :( ) but generally passable cabinet, with the 2 5x3s as side pieces, the 5x4 as a back wall, the 5x2s as the doors, held on with the hinges, the 4x2s as the top and bottom and shelves held up with shelf supporters, with the hooks on the insides of the doors (for coats :D) It is painted a happy tiger's eye yellow.

The screw was disregarded since it wasn't in the instructions. :|b]
