IMO it's the funnest and most clever LG ever. The "CD's" and the "Dog's" games are a close #2 and 3 respectively.

Honestly, I love the testmakers. Dinos, the Ninja question... they have a sense of humor over there.

For some reason the Platypus RC passage from PT 29-Oct. 99-passage 3, was hilarious to me. Off topic...sorry

The only RC passage I enjoy more than that one is the telepathic homing pigeons.

The platypus one is great because the entire first experiment boils down to, "We poked an animal in the face with a stick, and it bit us. Science!"

I almost enjoyed stained glass windows because the list of colors was only one away from telling us to GO PR(A)Y. I guess including aubergine or aqua as a color wasn't an option?

not trying to be a jerk, but what was so hard about this game? I took pt 57 without knowing dinos was in there and still finished games on time with a -0. It was time consuming though IIRC

I think for most people it was the first in/out game they had seen with more to track than mere selection. It threw a lot of people for a loop. IIRC it also had one key but very subtle deduction that made the game cake once you figured it out. Maybe you just caught on early.

PS, it's no contest, the funniest game is alphabet soup. Also a hard game...so it earns honors on two fronts. Hat's off, LSAC!
