Next Event in the making! Please help in designing it!

Next Bundlelicious Puzzle event will be December!


Welcome to the first ever Bundlelicious Summer Puzzle Event for Steamgifts!

Please NOTE: This is not a recruitment thread! We will not be recruiting until 2018

For those that don't know, Bundlelicious is one of the first bundle giveaway groups on Steamgifts.
We have had 10's of thousands of successful bundle giveaways by our members, which is our specialty!
We also organize dozens of gaming events & challenges every year, and now, as of 2017, we are featuring monthly puzzle events!
But now you don't have to be a member to join in the fun!

Introducing the first ever Bundlelicious Summer Puzzle Event for Steamgifts!

These puzzles are open to everyone on Steamgifts!! The Giveaways Require a Level 1+ on SG!
But don't worry, getting to level 1 is EASY (to get level 1 you just need to have given only ONE game on SG) and you have all month to level up and get your boarding passes! (Note: very few GAs in the event are of a higher level than 1+... this event is to encourage as many as possible to join!)

Our puzzle master has created a series of Interlocking puzzles! Solve them and you will get access to giveaway trains!

So let's get started with the fun stuff!

There are 5 phases of this puzzle event. After solving each phase of this event you will get a passcode-- thus 5 passcodes. Submitting two passcodes of the 5 will get you on a train for those that have conquered two of the phases, and likewise for 3 solved, 4 solved and all 5 solved for a total of 4 potential trains to win access to GAs!

NOTE: Each phase is a totally different puzzle event and can be solved in ANY order. The first two phases are one event split in half. If you are having problem with one phase then try another as each are separate events within themselves!! GOOD LUCK and have fun! Don't hesitate to ask for hints or help if necessary!

Each phase is like a completely different puzzle event in itself. Which was your Favorite??

View Results
Phase 1 and 2-- the Hidden Itstoohard screenshot puzzles!
Phase 3-- the Compound Nouns picture puzzles!
Phase 4-- the LOGIC puzzles to find hidden GAs!
Phase 5-- the Hexagonal Art Referencing Puzzles!
Don't really solve puzzle events as they are so hard... (note: please try Phases 1 and 2 as they are easier)
Can't pick one favorite-- the whole event was my favorite!!
Meh... Potatoes are the best...

From the votes... next puzzle event shall be about POTATOES!

Gotcha!

I just want to say that the whole event is a bloody amazing thing. All the puzzles were fun, involving, and solvable (takes a bit of time to solve). This is the 1st time I've actually completed all the puzzles in an event. Before this I've only been able to solve like 5-10 pieces out of like 40-50 pieces of puzzles and sometimes that too because of community help.

Kudos to the Puzzle Master for crating all these puzzles. I can only imagine how much time it would have taken to make these puzzles, the giveaways, and organizing everything.

Additional Kudos to all the giveaway creators who are giving away a bunch of games to make this event a successful event.

THANK YOU ALL.

Bump for solving all phases! For anyone stuck, remember to read everything slowly and carefully! Sometimes I got stuck just because I didn't pay enough attention.

Great advice... some did not realize they could click the CHECK button on the compound noun puzzles and also didn't realize there was a helper document...

And great job conquering the complete event!

Lol... congrats for conquering the event...

Was hoping the puzzle cracking would build up your synapses instead of breaking them. ;)

But seriously, finishing this event in its entirety is an amazing accomplishment!

I can't seem to get the First reward train to work, despite typing in the first two passwords in correctly.

Comment has been collapsed.

make sure you type as it was given with no spaces... also first password a comma a space and second password

Its best to save the GA page that has the passcodes on them and directly copy and paste to the ITH

Example:
In first screenshot the order is the 8 shapes on top. to find in the picture below...

Phase 1 conquered. Victory bump!
Also answer for the last question changed since it's creation, so you may want to update it. It's still possible to figure out the right answer anyway, but it would be nice if the quiz marked the right answer as good.
