    As always when I play something that happens to be a puzzle game (which this episode is), just be kind for goodness sake. I know angry backseating is a _very easy_ thing to do, but I am challenging you to do the _not easy_ thing, to _not_ do that, because I believe you're capable of it.

      Is it okay if we backseat respectfully?
      Like instead of saying, “YOU IDIOT!! How could you not know the answer?!” we could say, “I know you were struggling to find the answer to this puzzle. It took me a long time to figure it out too! Here is what it is,” would that be fine? XD

    This level is definitely really interesting, most puzzle games have a binary state of completion; you either beat the puzzle or you don't. So the fact that you can still progress after getting most of the way through a puzzle is really cool in that it helps the level feel less frustrating, especially combined with the fact that it's forgiving with retries and skips. Also some of the puzzles you did are different from the ones I did, so it seems like there's a decently-sized pool of puzzles it picks from, which should make this episode replayable. Making a replayable puzzle roguelike seems like it would be hard to do, so it's cool that they managed to give a peak of what one could look like in this level!

    22:02 you were so close!
    I only figured it out right after you hit skip.
    I think the solution was Chisel the 4 into a 3 and a 1. Double the 1 to a 2. (3 and a 2 now) Chisel the 2 to get a 1 and a 1. (3 and two 1s now) Use the 1s for the +1 (3 and two 2s) then the two 2s for the plus 1 to get three 3s.

    The easiest thing to do is "Enjoying your content as always!" regardless of what happens in the video.
    re: the goofiness of the second puzzle - I think that bump and spatula might make more sense if they said "give a new dice with...", to give the same clarity as the "return the dice" moves. If thought of as consuming the first dice to give a new flipped dice, or a dice with value n+1, both of those interactions are a lot clearer.
    my brain hurts after using "dice" incorrectly so many times, but that's Dicey Dungeons for ya!

    (Steps will be notated as "Action to do [Remaining/Resulting Dice]")
    Bump a 5 to a 6. (6, 5)
    Chisel the other 5. (6, 4, 1)
    Chisel the 4. (6, 3, 1, 1)
    Sine Wave the 1s to destroy one of them. (6, 3, 2)
    Fury Spell. (3, 2)
    Use the last bump on the 2 so fury spell could duplicate the result. (3, 3, 3)

    The way that Fury works isn't "do this item again, with the same dice you used as before". Treat it like "make a copy of the equipment, and put a copy of the dice you used in it". Furying a Bump/Nudge/Spatula/Duplicate/Blender/any dice manipulation is super strong because of this! Yes, it's a mindbending, niche mechanic... but hey, that's Witch, baby
    Also: all puzzles are 100% solvable!

    I knew this will be fun one. Second riddle initially got me in the same trap, interaction with furry is interesting. Fourth was kinda hilarious, so close for Retro, he found secret behind answer (ones in sine wave) and even commented it would be cool. Fifth the blind I didn't meet during in my game, but finding what dice is was huge step, only small step of noticing that 3 is fine for the result and the one should be doubled and then chiseled was left. On the almost last, i realized how to do it just before reto said it and then he didn't go with that, thinking it was impossible (bump six, vise grip, bump five, six into fury, double dupe five should give four fives). Shame the vanish one didn't show, that was the most difficult for me and hoped I will see if it will be equally hard for Retro. Honestly with three retries even if I didn't see how exactly something works on the first look, using one or two to experiment gave me all info needed, so it was quite an interesting mind teaser.

    The solution to blind die puzzle was:
    -Chisel the blind 4 (only thing you can do at the start)
    -(You have a 3 and a 1) Doppeldice the 1 to get a 2
    -(You have a 3 and a 2) Chisel the 2 to get two ones
    -(You have a 3 and two 1s) Sine wave the ones until they become 3s.
    -Combined with the 3 from before, you now have three 3s and have used all equipment
    I'm just confused as to why the dice was blinded since it just makes the puzzle more tedious by making you waste attempts trying to deduce its number

    ok so about the bump vs spatula fury thing,
    instead of thinking about the text of the function, think about how it actual functions.
    so with bump it isn't just adding a value to 6, it's input: 6 -> output: 6 and 1, thus when repeated will make 2 pairs of 6 and 1.
    while spatula is input: 6 -> output: 1, so when repeated it will produce only 2 ones.

    “Repeat the next action”
    Mrs. Evil Gameshow Host ma’am, I do not believe you understand that phrase correctly.
    Flipping a die 2 times would simply end up with you on the same number as which you started. I didn’t know “repeat the next action” really meant, “summon an additional die from the Twisting Nether equal in value to the value of the original die used for this function and then repeat the function with this new die.” LOL
    Well I guess we know that mechanic for the future puzzles now.

    • @jackeea_
      @jackeea_ 2 роки тому +2

      Don't think of Spatula as "flip this dice upside down", think of it as "Get a new dice whose value is equal to this dice flipped upside down". That's how every dice manipulator works! Otherwise, this would make Fury vastly underpowered, since you'd have to consume the dice that the game gives you after using something like Spatula.

  • @TinariKao
    @TinariKao 2 роки тому

    Howdy! In the 3:45 puzzle it appears your were assuming that the repeat action would take the action of a die modified by the action taken, instead of taking the action of the die you put in twice.
    Example, you put a six in the Bump +1. It bumped a 6 twice and you ended up with 6, 1, 6, 1. Likewise, when you figured out to put the 6 into the spatula after fury, it seems like your logic was thinking "It will flip the 6 into a 1, then it will take that 1 and flip it into a six." However, fury repeats the action TWICE. By putting a 6 into spatula, it did a "Spatula 6, flipped into a 1" and gave you a 1, then it did "Spatula 6, flipped into a 1" and gave you a 1.
    Cheers!

    Which you explained hesitantly immediately after that puzzle. Hah! Cheers!

      Start of turn (6)
      Bump the 6 (6, 1)
      Vise Grip the 6 and 1 (5, 5)
      Bump the 5 (6, 5)
      Fury Spell with the 6 (5)
      Duplicate the 5 (5, 5, 5, 5)
      I think the trickiest part might be understanding how Duplicate works with Fury. Since Fury repeats an exact copy of the action, therefore the input dice are completely new dice that mimic the original input. So instead of giving you 3 fives, you're given the original 5, a duplicated 5, a copy of the original 5, and a duplicated copy of the original 5.
