This is the first set of 10 puzzles. They may be completed in any order.

At the carnival[edit]

Jigsaw solution (Macintosh)

In this jigsaw puzzle, it is easiest to solve the text first. The red text is easily joined together, as is the large purple rectangle at the bottom.

Parking Lot[edit]

Location of hidden words

This is the first word search puzzle. In this puzzle, there are 13 Horizontal, 8 Vertical, 2 upward diagonal, and 3 downward diagonal words. You are provided with assistance to highlight a given line by using the hotkeys as shown in the menu. However, there is a difference between the two versions: Only the Macintosh version shows the count of words remaining in a given orientation.

These words are a list of car brands, which are easily recognizable if you use the line assistance function under the right-hand menu. Of these words, "Peugeot" may be hard to find if you are unsure on its exact spelling.

After solving the word search, you are presented by a cryptogram with a generous hint (shown at the bottom right of the screen). Match the letters in the hint, and you will notice the puzzle make a bit of sense. Since the puzzle concerns a parking lot, see if you can fit "parking" into the puzzle.

The resulting phrase should be "Even though the parking is free it still costs you plenty".

Main Entrance[edit]

If solving for the first time, you will notice that the puzzle title appears directly in the puzzle. Solve for that word first, which should give more than enough information to complete the other pieces.

The second puzzle is slightly more difficult, but the text only appears on the middle two lines.

The third puzzle is a simple jigsaw. First, solve by matching the bars on the left and right of the screen to the pieces. The border should then be completed, allowing you to complete the text without issue.

Ticket Booth[edit]

Jigsaw solution.

This jigsaw puzzle only has one row. First, solve tickets first, and notice that it needs to be placed on the right. The other pieces are placed by matching the background.

When you are finished the jigsaw, you will be presented by a puzzle where you click buttons to construct a sentence. These buttons only add text at the beginning and end, and will be easy to solve simply by checking if a sentence makes sense as it is constructed. The final sentence should be "What is the price of admission to Hazard Park?" although there is no fixed solution to this puzzle as it changes each game.

This is followed by a second similar puzzle. The same rules apply, although the sentence is "Your continued good health!"

The Fun Way[edit]

The Fun Way.

This is a maze. Instead of going through an obvious maze of walls, you need to go through a maze of sections separated by crowds. These crowds will push you to a location each time you try to enter them.

A mindless route is to hold the right arrow key until you reach the top-right section. Once there, you can enter the southwest crowd, followed by the southeast, and the southeastern most crowd. However, a faster solution can be used by following the diagram shown in the image to the right.

After the maze, you receive a concatenation puzzle. Click on buttons to form a phrase. Try to get the phrase "Mingling with the customers", followed by "is often more scary than the rides!"

Merry-Go-Round =[edit]

Puzzle solution (Ms-Dos)
Puzzle solution (macintosh)

This starts with a jigsaw. The border provides limited help, instead leaving you to complete the long rectangles yourself. You should be able to complete the canopy (the long angled rectangle), followed by the top and bottom. Next, you need to order the pieces at the top and bottom. First go for the bottom, taking a look at the direction of the slanted lines to determine their position. This leaves you to place the horses, which should be trivial.

In the Ms-Dos version, it may be easier to join the horses as soon as possible, since those horses can be identified visually much easier the monochrome version shown on the macintosh.

Now, you have to concatinate sentences. The first button should result in the phrases "e thr" and "e wood", and the two sentences are "What is the true thrill of riding" and "an antique wooden horse?".

Finally, finish the cryptogram. Complete the clue above, but this time, the puzzle might not be clear. However, you can complete the word "that", and "have". The solution is "Realizing that you have sat on a nest of termites".

Sitting Ducks[edit]

Puzzle Solution

This is a jigsaw puzzle. It is best to solve by completing the external border first, and by moving the ducks into position within said border.

Next, complete a series of anagrams. The common theme is that it advances through the alphabet, but takes a large number of words that start with 'S'. If a word wasn't scrambled properly, then it will be automatically skipped (this only happens in 1/4 games).

The 32 words are:

  • Alive, Brook, Creek, Decoy, Every, Field, Growl, Humor, Irony, Juicy, Knoll, Lucky, Marsh, Noise, Onion, Pluck, Quack, Roast, Swamp, Squat, Sorry, Skunk, Spice, Syrup, Storm, Twice, Uncle, Vivid, Wharf, Xerox, Yeast, and Zebra.

The duck will provide a word for the finale.

The final vertical word is used in the final puzzle.

Ice Cream Stand[edit]

Word locations

There are 21 words in the word search, all relating to flavors of Ice Cream.

In the cryptogram, fit the word Flavor after completing the given clue. This should make the solution "And be sure to taste the flavor of the week" easy to solve.

This is followed by an anagram puzzle with letters moving between the words. The macintosh version gives a clue by a squeaking sound when you switch letters around. Otherwise, you have to solve the final flavor for yourself, Rodent Ripple.

Ferris Wheel[edit]

This is a concatenation puzzle. There is no fixed solution, but you need to construct a sentence based on the buttons.

The phrases are as follows:

  • In over twenty years,
  • there hasn't been
  • a single injury (start by clicking on the button that gives "e i")
  • on this ride. (start by clicking on the button that gives "s r")
  • Falling off the ride, well, that's another matter!
