I think you are right that these puzzles will all be challenging! I asked my friends for help with the first one, but even they could not find their way to the extra tasty chip.

Pay no attention to any ethereal action whilst you're in there.

I'm back for the fun puzzles. I think you are very right that these puzzles will all be challenging! I asked my super tough friends for help with the first one, but even they could not find their way to the extra tasty chip. Kat can help! For her it is like the maze is just drawn on the sidewalk in chalk.  |

I'm just waiting for the comments section. You're looking fine today rafk if a bit gray. Gotolei is looking sharp as ever. sotha looks thoughtful, arf is monochromatic and sardonic, hnau is a delightful puzzle and Jelly Jellybean is giving us the eye. |

The maze is a construct of the mind. It exists not in the physical world, but in City Face's own thoughts. It is a reflection of the peer pressure that chains him to his friends, and the difficulty of breaking free as a means of self-expression. Also, the chip is old and stale. |

I was disappointed by how easy the maze was, it's basically a straight line, all the branches are obvious dead ends.  (obvious as in, you can see it in a glance) |

(obvious as in, you can see it in a glance) The joke is that, as has been noted, City Face would simply walk or fly over the page. The maze is irrelevant to him. What I want to know is, is the the solution to the maze Annie's currently trapped in? |

For more complicated mazes (actual mazes), start at the exit and work your way to the beginning. Is that cheating?

Is watching a VCR tape rewinding a film cheating? Is back-tracking in a video game cheating? Is the Michael Jackson moonwalk cheating? Is backwards logic cheating? If you answer the first question, you'll have a lot of other uncomfortable questions to answer by proxy. Choose wisely. |

Even the comments section Tom has put under the comic is full of gags on that theme! |

Hey! Puzzle 2 is really one of those puzzles where one is different from the others, but it is hard to find the one that is different because so many are the same and the puzzle is cleverly disguised as a coloring book page.

One of the top pigeons is looking in the opposite direction. |

I think 39 pigeons are looking in the opposite direction.

Not sure if this would be the place to post about this, but since we're at a "between books" thing, how long does it usually take for Tom to make the book available to buy?

Not sure if this would be the place to post about this, but since we're at a "between books" thing, how long does it usually take for Tom to make the book available to buy? The Volume 5 timeline was: - Tom did a live stream of him drawing the cover for Volume 5 on November 28th, 2014. - The treatise at the end of Volume 5 was published on December 31st, 2014. - The official release date for Volume 5 was August 19th, 2015. I haven't seen anything about a live stream for the Volume 6 cover, but the treatise is published. I also haven't heard anything about pre-orders. Maybe Volume 6 will be available June-ish 2017? MCM London Comic Com is in late May, so maybe Volume 6 will debut at that event. |

Re: Search-a-Word
For some reason my eye went right to "dees nutz." I assume the reason why is "internet."

Have there actually been comments sections? If so, it's a shame that they disappear when the new page comes up.

Nobody's mentioned the Please Don't Eat Me?

I'm stuck trying to find EAT. I know there's a logical place for it to be, but the puzzle is slightly deformed, and drawing a line is kind of... difficult with how it's laid out.
EDIT: I found another one, I'll take it.

Nobody's mentioned the Please Don't Eat Me? It seemed like a reasonable request. I'm stuck trying to find EAT. I know there's a logical place for it to be, but the puzzle is slightly deformed, and drawing a line is kind of... difficult with how it's laid out. Yea that misaligned row made this a 30min puzzle for me. Other words I found (in addition to "dees" and "nutz") include "old" "goof" "wow" "hen" "me" "trot"* "pit" "due" "pin" "jet" "on" and/or "no" and "Tea" X2. (edit) *"Trot" being reversible to "tort," also.(/edit) |
