Me and my friends are currently playing PURGATORY.
We're stuck in this certain place. It's a room with paths leading up, down, left and right. But, I keep on getting back to the last place evrytime we go to a new path!

Also, what is the riddle written in blood for? Who are the five princes? is it related to that room?

For those who know the answers, please reply immediately.
THNX!

Purgatory? That sounds like a fun game. "Play as a mediocre character as he wanders through infinite white space in search of something to do to waste time while his sins are being considered"

The riddle in blood is related to the maze room. You need to solve the riddle first before you can get to it. They key to the riddle should be in the TXT file included in the zip file, but I'll answer it here anyway: just arrange the first names of the princes accordingly to P & A (P AND A), follow the direction to get through the maze. Let me know if you're still stuck.

alright I'm not Lionhart but I got PURGATORY and...

...I'm also stuck. I already figured P and A were the initials of some of the princes (simple logical step)
P = south and A = 2 north (because there are two princes with initial A). I've tried all possible interpretations of this and nothing is working (SNN, NNS, NSN etc). The clue said all five princes must break the curse (thus I tried NNSWE, NNSEW, SNNWE,SNNEW,NSNWE,NSNEW etc). Still not working. It's getting annoying.

P&A stands for "P AND A". There are two princes whose name starts with an A because there are two A's in PANDA.

And, if you're really desperate, it's not entirely impossible to power-game through this puzzle as long as you know what the first two steps are..

What sephyroth said. P & A. Subtitute & for AND then you get PANDA.

Subtitute N and D with the corresponding directions (I've forgotten the names for N and D). It should be something like: P = South, A =North, Prince N's direction, Prince D's direction, A = North. Voila.

Thanks for your help guys!
I finally managed to go to that park!
The next puzzle was a clever one. But it
only took me a few minutes to understand it.
(ADORE) Idea

I'll ask if I'm stuck again in a certain
puzzle. Razz

That was rather clever. It was cruel though (I mean for a first puzzle) and the word panda should have been relevant to the puzzle instead of just a random word that has no real connection to the clue. It's a nice puzzle and everything, it's just that it doesn't have a very logical end (panda should have been the name of something or an acronym in the game)

Thanks though. It's a great game.

Sorry for reviving a dead thread, but I really don't want to start a new thread on the same topic.

Sewers. How do I get the key from the rat, and DO I get the key from the rat, and if not then what do I have to do to get the key? Seriously, I've gone through all the rooms in numerical order (Assumed Jose was no. 2) and the rat still does nothing but bite me.
