[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)

Submitted 5 years, 6 months ago by

I found the original one pretty neat, let’s see how this goes...

To quote the legendary Riosix:

It's a treasure hunt using your Hearthstone card collection. I'll start it off with a riddle, and you try to figure out what card I'm talking about. First one to answer correctly picks a new card and makes the next riddle. Make it as difficult as you want, just not impossible :)

I’ll start with:

Alone I’m quite fearsome,

you better watch out,

but doubled I’m more than tripled,

and my gurgle - a mighty shout.

    Okay. It is difficult to give a hint without spoiling  the riddle. The possibilities of this card are limited, but also in some extent are not limited. The last two lines refer to the name of the card. The first two - to its effect.

    There's a redhead living in Washington in a house covered in ivy. What's her name?

     

    @DestroyerR: Please don't feel bad because I was able to solve it quickly. I enjoy your riddles very much and if it was within my powers, I'd instantly award you with a fitting forum title like Supreme Quizzmaster or some such.

  • No to all of those. R got the closest so far with their guess of "trees" for part 1.

    I'm happy it did not end up too easy, but I'm fairly confident you'll get it soon. Hint: Both parts are entirely non-Hearthstone related, but if you put together the answers to the questions, you'll get a card.

  • Can you give a lil hint for 2nd part? I guess we are all have no idea about it.

    0
  • Sure. I'll give you three of them, I don't want to frustrate you.

    First hint

    Show Spoiler
    The person you are looking for is not actually living in Washington (the city), "Washington" is a code for something else. You can solve this by trying to find a substitue for Washington (the city).

    Second hint

    Show Spoiler
    You're only looking for the redhead's first name.

    Third hint

    Show Spoiler
    There's a major keyword for the answer to question 2 planted in the "Washington"-sentence.

  • Poison Seeds?

     

    The redhead is Poison Ivy, from DC comics, that much I'm almost sure now.

    The first part though... I was certain that it had to do with dragons, now I know it doesn't.

    Papa Nurgle wants to share his gifts.

  • Poison Ivy is correct Fedrion! I did pose the two questions in the correct order though (so Poison comes second). Think some more about R's guess about the trees but with more detail...

  • Well, Silverleaf Poison comes to mind, just for having poison in the name and the detail about trees are the leaves.

    Papa Nurgle wants to share his gifts.

  • That's correct! The trees in Lorien are Mallorn (plural Mellyrn). "Mellyrn were similar to beech trees in that their bark was smooth and silver-grey, but their leaves, which were green above and silver beneath..."

  • Washington and Ivy sold it for me, the Lorien part kept me thinking about elves and dragons, should have thought about the silver/grey forest, really nice mishmash of universes!

    Now, not to hard.

  • There is some backstory about these cards?

    0
  • Peons are the classic worker units from Warcraft that built the outposts. It's ironic that they generate random spells and not "frenzy: give all outposts +1/+1 wherever they are" or something.

    My pen is twice as big

    and costs twice as much

    If you don't cheat

    I'll suck out your blood.

    0
  • Vulgar Homunculus?

    My pen is twice as big - deals 2 damage as opposed to Pen Flinger’s 1

    Costs twice as much - costs 2

    If you don’t cheat - “cheat” as in summoning it without playing it 

    I’ll suck out your blood - it damages you  

    Make The Cow King an alternate Warrior skin plz

  • Nice guess! Still wrong sadly. I realized that I'm not good at making this. "you" refers to the opponent. I should've probably used singular "they" instead... 

    Pen Flinger has a second effect. That may have have to do sth. with sucking out

    About the riddle. It's not one of HoF'ed classic cards that was replaced with another one?

    The first line is about pirates, and the last is about the card that feed on them. Second line was to indicate that the card was in Un'goro, and the third line was useless.

    Maybe I will try to do something a bit harder next time.

    Explosive Diarrhea Sheep or Constipated Beetles...

    Ok:

     

    Here I go again on my own.
