Description

Welcome to the Pyramid of Foods challenge.

Here's your free for all GA before you start completing the puzzles. I hope you'll have fun and enjoy solving your way up the pyramid. Don't be scared and don't hesitate to ask for help/clues if you get stuck, the goal is for you to solve everything, not to get frustrated. You can ask here for help with the word equations if you can't figure them out and I'll try my best to point you in the right direction.

Just remember that we might not be all in the same time zone, but we'll all try our best to help you progress if you give it a little time.

We all hope you'll have fun solving the puzzles that we prepared for you, have a good time and don't stress :3

I am no expert, but I came up with a third word for the second picture, in addition to the G word and the W word, I had an E word.

There could be words that could fit as a description but you have to deduce solving forward and back to deduce what it must be... In conjunction with using 20 pic answer bank...

Hi, I'd recommend you ask for hints for those in the main thread.

I didn't work on those quizzes nor did i tried to solve them yet so I don't know the answer to give you a hint. I can only help with the words equations part. But i'm sure jeffasl will be glad to give you a hint to unstick you ;) Good luck for the puzzles!

Any hint for the picture equation puzzle #6? I'm sure for picture 2 and I have an idea for picture 1 but the last one is giving me troubles. Or 1 is wrong and the third is what I think. But so far I could not find three words which make up for a meaningful equation

Does it help if I say words 1 and 3 rhyme ? If it doesn't and you're still stuck feel free to add me on steam so i can confirm or infirm the words you have a doubt on.

Okay, I'll reply first, since the anagramm troubles me a bit. The hint helped. It is just strange that so far the information needed was always given and always ignored but now it is important.

Did you solve this yet?

Yes, solved it yesterday. As I've managed to solve the level 1 passcode puzzle I have solved puzzles 4 - 9 completely. Although picture equation #6 #7 would have been difficult without help.

EDIT: Did you get my message on Steam? I wanted to confirm something.

Some suggestions for picture equation puzzle #7. Picture 1 is obvious and I think I got 3 as well. But 2 is irritating and I can't get an idea for it. No idea for 4 and 5 as well.

Sorry for the delay, i was sleeping :(

For picture 2, you're looking at what the character is doing.
For 5 you're looking at the distance between the 2 objects.
For 4, it's a little misleading maybe. But if you find 5 it rhymes (kinda) with it.

If you need more help or verify your theories, hit me up on steam ;)

I still don't know what picture 2 and 3 are supposed to be.. I got words that would fit the length but the letters don't :/

Word 2 is a colloquial term for the action, but also could describe something else, that is featured in the example equation in the main thread.

As for the 3rd word, maybe focus on what the character is writing?

I had all of those. It's the third one that's stumping me. I have a couple guesses, but it's not fitting my letters.

No joke, 3 seconds after I posted this (after looking for several minutes), I figured it out. And it's such a duh answer.

There's extra letter C left after solving word equation 12. Is it ok and other equations can also be solved not from all letters?

I think it's a "typo" and shouldn't have happened so thank you for pointing it out, i'll transmit to jeff. In general, I assume (and hope) the other equations have to be solved with all letters, but if you find another case like that please report it? Thanks a lot :)

Somebody pointed out this morning there is a small mistake in this one and an extra letter remaining that shouldn't be there. It might be what is making you feel like you have a mistake? (And sorry for not pointing that out earlier, I forgot it was this puzzle)

08-Potato. Confused with last two pictures, no clue for the last one (cave keeps coming up and I know that is wrong). The one before that...is he from a Skandinavian country?

Yes he is. And you can find the last word with the letters of his word only. Does it help?

09-Grain. Think pictures 1,2, 4 and 6 are okay. Am bit iffy with 3, have 3 or 4 possibles but am struggling with 5 (looks like a kidney). Without the letters from 5 I cannot pick a choice for 3. Sooo, am stuck, again :)
EDIT: Googled the picture and now think I know what it depicts...will keep working on picture 3.
Edit: Solved :)

5 is definitely not a kidney, but you're on the right path looking for an organ. Google it and look at the pictures, you should quickly find what you're looking at ;)

11-Veg2. Think I have words 1,2 and 5. At least the letters from 5 are subtracted from 1 and 2. Vague idea that word 3 is a plant part (was going for number but have discounted that at this stage) and have a word for 4 (using your previous hints) but the only word I can make is an Indian city...so think I am off track, again.

For 3 it is NOT a plant part, you're looking for a concept more than something literal. Does it help?

09 pasta, what are these things? :< i have no idea except for 1st and 4th pictures :(

Comment has been collapsed.

Are you having a problem with puzzle 9 or with the pasta one (7) ?

Since I'm going to bed now, I'm gonna assume you need help for the pasta one as it's the more difficult of the 2 and leave you hints for the ones that you have no idea. If you were looking for hints for the other (puzzle 9) lemme know but it'll have to wake when i wake up :(

So for puzzle 7,
Picture 2 you're looking for a colloquial term describing the action. The same word also can be represented by something else and is present in the example equation.
Picture 3, have a more careful look at what the character is writing.
Picture 5, pay attention to the arrows, and the word only differs from word 4 by one letter.

Hope it helps, good luck

Oh! I didn't make it in time to solve the rest of the pyramid!
Many thanks for being part of this wonderful event and giving out many gifts!
The word puzzles were quite a lovely part of it. A lot more enjoyable to solve and a lot less nerve-racking than a lot of the other puzzles.
