We should also give some thought as to what Marks Three, Four, and Five will look like. An Egyptian theme is expected but where do you go after a pyramid?

My votes would be

Mark 3. A sealed Canopic Jar complete with entrails. The puzzle is to remove the contents without breaking the jar and persuading the Post Office to deliver them to SW for verification.

Mark 4. The River Nile. You have to find as many floating plants as possible without being eaten by the live crocodiles. Doing it while the river is in flood earns bonus points.

Mark 5. Cleopatra. SW’s first life-size inflatable puzzle. It can look like Elizabeth Taylor, Amanda Barrie, or one of those topless birds in that 1970’s TV serial. I haven’t yet worked out what you actually do with it. Asp is an optional extra.

Any member who completes all three puzzles without the neighbours applying for an ASBO gets a WoW mug, and a coaster.

Sorry, or a coaster.

This got me thinking, I wonder whether Puzz knows the answer to this yet, or does he make it up as he goes along. Sorry, I mean does he develop the product range with due regard to customer feedback and evaluation of the current product.

I then found this, which partly answers the question:

Puzz wrote:I can asure you Isis V will not be solved quickly.

I have the Isis series mapped out in my head, and I know exactly what Im doing with Isis V as this needed to be thought out before the others are created.

In fact I found that post accidentally while I was looking for this thread, which I think is the best look at the future versions of the ISIS I have seen yet! :lol:

I think it'd be cool if PUZZ (or anyone for that matter) made a working replica cyptex

by **themagicdude** » Wed Jul 30, 2008 9:34 am

there was actually a collector's edition of the da vinci code that came with a cryptex.

Yeh, I notice there's one going on ebay now but it's a region 4 :roll:

Not a bad price though at £40 considering all the stuff it apparently comes with!
