Gemini Quest

Unread post by Stockholm17 »

Hi all!

do you remember the quest I made in 2014 for Heretic?
Well, I am preparing a quest for Gemini and it is almost done. I just have to go make the graphics.

Guys, this time it is difficult and I will not give hints. That's the rule.
Juicy prizes will be communicated :D
It is indispensable to own a Gemini deck (any variant) because there is a card that you will need to use.
Here is the link to the page which is work in progress: https://www.stockholm17.com/gemini-quest" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

STAY TUNED!

You should add a bunch of coasters, stickers, and buttons. Maybe a sketch too since you want people to try solving it.
Move on, nothing to see here.

On the last step - but no deck to hand.

Hi,
I know it is difficult, many made it without hints or help from my side.
What I can suggest is to leave it for a while, and start over with a different approach. Often with puzzles or things like that it is better to stop for a while.
Often the approach or the point of view of other people helps to solve it :)

there is plenty of time, I will release the solutions on june 17 or 18 :)

I came up with an answer that actually seemed to be Italian. Unfortunately it loosely translated to "F You"
Unsurprisingly not the answer.

Happy to share my methodology after its all over lol

Just started last night and got stuck on the initial password b/c I couldn't see the roman numerals with my phone. Now I'm still stuck on the riddle.

I had the same issue the numbers are VERY hard to see on phone screens. I waited a couple a days because I thought maybe the images weren't there yet!

You'll get there with the riddle. Translation works two ways

I'm not there yet (stuck on 3), but it's become the perfect distraction from nail-biting on my first KS campaign :D
