Couple of weeks

Where did you see that? The only thing I can find still says that the LE will launch on July 1. I haven't seen any updates...

[matt_p_dales]

I have spoken to them they are waiting for something could be packaging etc etc

Like I say is only a few weeks I am sure they will write here informing everyone as I am only guessing at why there is a very small delay

[adamwest]

I hope that it doesn't effect the standard edtion release date.

Puzz has posted an update on the main forum page,
the special edition Copernisis is delayed slighty, but should still be out this month

[matt_p_dales]

I would rather the puzzle be right and wait a couple of weeks


My question at the minute is the key inside going to be like the first 2

[admin]

Hi Folks,

apologies for not getting onto the forum more often.

Couple of things.

1. Apologies again, the copernisis is behind schedule, I am as frustrated as everyone else, but I am doing everything I can to get it launched this month.

2. The key inside the Copernisis is brand new, never been seen before.

The key situation is getting slightly complicated though because we ran out of key 1 and 2, and adapted key 3 for 1 and 2 aggghhhhh i hear you say. Now we have key 4 for 3rd puzzle. So the fix for this is as follows. In order to qualify for winning the ultimate reward for isis V, and remember the ultimate reward goes to the 1st person to solve the whole isis adventure series which isnt going to be easy as I am sure you realise. OK to qualify you need to own at least 2 of key (1 or 2 or 3) plus key 4(copernisis) and key 5 for isis IV thus a total of 4 keys and have registered the first 4 puzzles to one account before the year 2015 based on (UK) time zone.

The plan is that Isis V will be contained within a puzzle box with 4 x combination locks. Only those that have the first 4 puzzles registered on their account will be provided with the codes. If you by isis V without the other puzzles, then you will need to solve the combination locks first, but you will not qualify for the ultimate isis series reward.

I bet you all knew things were going to get complicated didnt you !

Sounds like you have a game plan, (kind of) and that this will be a really wild ride, But please remember that we want and like/love/hate the mechanical puzzle and not the online/big game/end game puzzles. (please anyone correct me if I am wrong) but I would and have bought these puzzles on the puzzles themselves not the end game. I mean really look at how many people complained about the subscription fee and still buy the other puzzles. it's because we are puzzles geeks not someone out to win money.(although that would be nice) just give use good puzzles that make us feel stupid (then smart) and we will be happy!!!

rant over,

adam

On that note, i think you will love the Copernisis because it is a "puzzlers dream"

[matt_p_dales]

I don't know Adam I really enjoyed finding a pyramid and opening it, was a great day out.
I do like the Ramisis game aswell I just found it welll hmmmm slow I suppose to many of us are stuck at a certain door!!! I know Jazz is through and that's great but I would like a bit more of a chance loads of clues out yes.... But hmmm anyway!!

I can't wait for Copernisis Puzz do u want to tell us more about these secret compartments I.e what they are ???

[Ailurophelia]

YES!!! What are these secret compartments?

Also, I agree with Adam that some if not many of us really go for the physical, invisible maze, want-to-pull-your-hair-out puzzles rather than the virtual games. Although they are pretty fun, it's things like Copernisis (I cannot wait!) that thrill me to no end. And a treasure hunt for a pyramid is rather exciting, too.

Also, I am amazed Puzz. Did you just reveal a bit about Isis V? So, it's going to have combination locks... box shaped, maybe...but I'm sure there will be more to it! Five years away yet I can barely sit still in my seat

[madmanjp]

Even though there is a delay would it be possible for those of us who preordered the LE be able to get the clues so we can have some fun deciphering them? Please!!

[LouIsis]

please remember that we want and like/love/hate the mechanical puzzle and not the online/big game/end game puzzles. (please anyone correct me if I am wrong)

That is so very true!
I bought/buy the puzzles themselves in order to gradually discover the magicians secrets and outsmart his hidden locking mechanisms.
The Isis1 physical golden pyramids and the free searches are to some extent physical puzzles too, I really enjoyed finding and visiting (some of) them, even though I did not know all passwords (yet ). Remember, the original Isis Adventure concept was for Ramisis keys to open the real golden pyramids too, and one new (real) pyramid would be released each month. That concept would definitely have maintained the interest of many more players, moreover it would have increased the number of exciting forum posts of adventureres on the hunt for 'their' pyramid or freesearch. The forum posts about solved searches and cracked pyramids are still the most exciting and inspiring ones!

Which one (or more) of the 'non-physical' puzzles has been as succesful or as exciting as the physical ones?
Ramisis game? Treasure chest? Puzzle box? Mystery picture? Platinum pyramid?
If the final Isis5 reward involves solving anything like the ramisis game or platinum pyramid, then Puzz may never be able to announce the end of the Isis Adventure...

In my head I am moving planets along their orbits while peeking into black holes, not entering door codes, e-mailing numbers, or deriving digits from images...

Go Puzz, make the Copernisis a perfect quality product, send it out, and enjoy our stories of astonishment and frustration about the puzzle itself in stead of about the waiting...
