Alright, this time it's all over! Did you know there was a second, hidden giveaway? Only about 1/6th of the people who tried the first puzzle ever found the link for the second, and out of them, only 29 made it through that.

[SOLUTION]

After you finished my first puzzle, you probably noticed the cryptic hints that "there may be more", or "things are not always as they appeared". Later, you probably saw the hints and people discussing questions that didn't exist, so you caught on. No one even found the hidden puzzle until 36 hours after the giveaway began. At that point, you had 48 hours to make it through.

If you opened up the HTML to this page, and scrolled to the line "Is the puzzle over when we think it's over? Remember, things are not always as they appear.", you'd see a hidden link right next to it. The link takes you here!

Then, you get 15 more questions to answer. Here's the solution for those:

1)Banjo Kazooie, 100. I accepted several variations of the game's title.

2)Vivi. He's from Final Fantasy IX.

3)X Buster.

4)The Walking Dead, Telltale Games. Go play this if you haven't. I love it.

5)Half Life. The link's not even there for some reason. I've linked the picture on the giveaway page. One of the hints gives you the answer for this.

6)Dead Island

7)Angry Birds. That's the green pig.

8)Klonoa

9)Donkey Kong. I also accepted DK.

10)Blue Candle! It's a candle that has a blue flame, so that's why I told people to logic it. It's from the first Legend of Zelda for the NES. It also makes an appearance in Binding of Isaac.

11)Final Fantasy X. I accepted several variations of the name. Tidus (the main character) wears that symbol on his, as does his father, Jecht.

12)Alien Hominid.

13)Knuckles

14)Chaos Emeralds, 7. I also accepted Super Emeralds, 7. Yep, I mainly did this one to reference the madness behind the "Tails" question from my last puzzle :)

15)Megaman X. I also accepted Rockman X, and just X.

If you answered all of those right, you got a link to the giveaway!

And, that's it. No more tricks up my sleeve for this puzzle. Hope everyone had fun!


Solution for the linked giveaway:

1) Clyde. He has a real name according to the first game, but no one ever remembers that :P

2) Mario. I hope you guys got that.

3) Wario, and either coins or money. Sorry to everyone who tried "garlic"! I didn't remember him ever liking that.

4) Peggle! Go try it!

5) Halo.

I tried to use my 5 easiest out of the 20 I made for this occasion.


I'm back again, with more puzzles. If you played my last puzzle, then you'll remember I used WeaveSilk to make the images. I made all new pictures using that site for this. So, just like last time, answer the questions, join the giveaway, and have fun!

Click here!

No cheating, revealing answers, giving hints, etc. You cannot help each other in any way. If you break this rule and win, I'll reroll. All other SteamGift rules apply.

All hints will be provided by me here and in the comments!

Is the puzzle over when we think it's over? Remember, things are not always as they appear.


Hints:

1: In a backpack? Isn't that animal cruelty?

3 and 15 are very related to each other. Both are supposed to be blue, and you could even say the same character uses both things. And both are upgradable in all of his games across the SNES and PS1.

4: This is a modern game on both consoles and PC. It was based on another form of media.

5: The link's broken.

6: It's a 2 word answer. One of the other images will help with the answer.

9: That's a tie, and should be red. Was it driving you bananas?

10: The "Batman of video games" (not actual Batman) used this item once.

10: If in doubt, logic this one. One person said recreating it in WeaveSilk helped him.

11: It's possible to get this right. It isn't just a fantasy.

12: The dev of this flash-based game just released a different game on Steam. That new game had been on consoles for awhile.

13 and 14 are also very related.

14: Think about the first puzzle I made. Which question about a move stumped most of you? This is related.

15: Both his English and Japanese name will work. You could even use his nickname.

?: Remember how awesome Half Life is? Yeah, remember that sometimes, because it might be important in case you find something that's broken. Just some simple advice.

Everything I've posted is important to the puzzle. Nothing is useless info, aside from the WeaveSilk Link

I just love how "it's on steam" is usually considered a hint... I don't see how this helps in any way to be honest. If I have no clue in what direction to look, knowing it's on steam narrows it down to still thousands of games (I'm not going to scan the whole catalog for something that looks like the drawing)

It actually narrows it down more than that in most cases. ;)
