Happynel.
Not me, and I'm not sure i'm going to bother at all.
I enjoyed the ISIS and the Nkryptor (both were very well made, although they took a ridiculously short amount of time to solve) and the early pyramid searches (before the riddles became almost impossible); however, the Ramisis was a bit of a joke (I was an ealy adopter). It was poorly fabricated and constructed, relied far to much on pure luck to solve it, and once you had it didn't actually work. Despite solving it several times mine refused to come apart without sending it back to SonicWarp.
I also don't like the latest batch of 'games' associated with the puzzles. The Ramisis game is just plain stupid, as there's no realistic way of making progress without a steady stream of clues - not much of a game. Frankly, i find it extremely tedious and boring - Kudos to those that manage to stick with it. For the prizes on offer, I really don't think it's worth the effort. I much preferred the Nkryptor and Pyrahunters games, they were at least fun (as were the riddles you had to solve once you'd completed the game). Even though they were difficult, they didn't rely on luck or clues to make progress. I've looked at the KuKu game and i'm not impressed. It looks pretty random and there''ll probably need to be a steady stream, of clues to solve it as well.
I might order a KuKu purely as a puzzle, if it turns out to be any good (hopefully people will be providing honest feedback on the forums), but as yet i'm undecided. I'm sure that there are better value alternatives.
