IQ Test: Get Everyone Across the River.

By Alex in Everything Else on Sep 3, 2006 at 12:10 am

This one is from sometime last year, I think, but it’s still fun: the goal of the game is to transport everyone across the river. The rules are:

  1. The father cannot be left alone with any daughter (without the mother present).
  2. The mother cannot be left alone with any son (without the father present).
  3. The thief cannot be left alone with any family member (without the cop present).
  4. Only the father, mother, and cop can operate the boat.

Sounds simple? Fair enough – let’s see if you can beat the IQ game: Link [Flash] – press the round blue button to start.

    I somehow always get stuck with a little girl, the cop, and the prisioner… If someone figures it out, let me know….

    The solution, obviously, is to teach everyone how to swim. :)

    I think it’s a little creepy that the dad can’t be trusted to be alone with his daughters, and the mother with her sons.

    I bet the family was crossing the river to see a marriage counselor.

    The neighbours said they seemed like such a normal, quiet family.

    If you try to leave the mother alone with the sons it shows a graphic of her HITTING the son, I never tried to leave the father with the daughter, but it was fun in a disturbing kind of way. And the fact that the cop can leave the thief alone on the shore is amusing.

    One of the children is a he-she. I can’t leave it with the mum or the dad. Crazy stuff.
