* Items will never be brought into or removed from the room without cause. * An item is ""present"" if it is in the room, including in the TIME MACHINE. * The name of an item is exactly the string that appears in ALL CAPS whenever the item is mentioned. Multiple items pressing the Big Red Button act simultaneously, all pushing the button together.Īfter the timestep is complete, but before the next timestep, any items arriving from distant points in time appear in the center of the room. If there are multiple items taking actions, the ones that press Big Red Buttons act before any others. Items only take actions if you have instructed them to do so, or if they are a DUCK or a ROBOT (see below). * You take the action listed on your instructions under the number of the timestep. Your goal is to make it through with a single consistent history.ĭuring each time step, two things happen, in this order: You may encounter time travel, closed timelike curves, and, if you do things wrong, inconsistencies and grandfather paradoxes. Unlike other Conundrums, this is a Time Conundrum. Note that you follow the instructions as they are written when you get to them if instruction 5 says to cross off instruction 4, then you will still do instruction 4 when time step 4 comes along. You always carry out one numbered instruction per time step. All you need to do is, at each time step, look at what is written on your instructions for that time step, and carry out the instructions. Unlike other puzzles, the instructions for this puzzle are clear and explicit simply follow the instructions exactly as they are written, and the answer will be spelled out for you. You are about to embark upon a Conundrum. Now, let's get to this year's Duck Conundrum.
What I believe to be the first Duck Conundrum is available (). However, these resulting duck conundrums are among the hardest that the Hunt has to offer. In response, a few puzzle-makers crafted some puzzles that were absolutely nothing BUT instructions. They are called ""Duck-Conundrum"" puzzles.Ĭertain people complained that the MIT Mystery Hunt puzzles were too hard because most of them had absolutely no instructions.
