Wraith: The Ironhorse Puzzle Tips

About WTG.com Puzzles

At the very root, the puzzles on the Wraith: The Iron Horse website are part of an adventure game that we're working out that connects in with the Wraith: The Iron Horse online game. The intent is for the adventure game to assist in plotting out how the game world of Wraith: The Iron Horse will evolve. An adventure game is built around two main parts: puzzles and story. These two components are combined with the third component: you, the player, are co-author. Your answers guide not only how the story unfolds, but also important aspects that will wind up affecting the game itself.

What does it all mean? It means that the puzzles on the website are the first step toward the production of the Wraith: The Iron Horse web adventure game, which connects in with our 3D game product, too. This is a value added service that we're providing free to our loyal game subscribers. There are five components to puzzles and what they mean. Let's review them.

Interactions

We begin Adventure of Wraith: The Iron Horse by solving a few puzzles here and there. The singular purpose in setting up these puzzles is to get folks thinking in this future world. As the puzzles are explored and answers are posted and shared, we begin to merge the puzzles with stories that you help to create via our adventure engine.

Puzzles

Puzzles come in all shapes and sizes. A puzzle might be as simple as figuring out the hidden message or as difficult as figuring out a question and then the answer to that question. Hints and clues may be posted with a given puzzle on the website, on the blog or on the forums. Generally speaking, it is the first person who answers the puzzle correctly that wins. Our judicial means of determining this is by looking at who posted the answer first on our forums.

     1. We leave a puzzle open until it is solved.
     2. Any Wraith: The Iron Horse related website is fair game for puzzle material.
     3. Any answers must be posted to the forums to count toward getting the prize.


Stories

After the completion of the puzzle titled The Karish Directive, stories will become intertwined with the puzzle itself. Your actions via posts on the website will determine the shape of these stories and how the puzzles are revealed; this is our next step as we enter into character development.

Prizes & Rewards

Current and the next three puzzles are listed below:

Puzzle Reward
The Karish Directive NPC named after you in the zone referred to by the puzzle.
The Stalker of the Night Receive an item that when activated increases your movement speed.
Heart of Shawnee Receive an item that increases your HP.
The Secret of Berry Hill Receive an item that replenishes health.


In addition to in-game rewards, we look forward to creating a Hall of Fame where you can compete with others for most puzzles solved and a few other nifty things that are currently Top Secret.

Character Development

As we begin to bring about the adventure engine for the game, you will have the option to employ your Wraith: The Iron Horse online game character either via the web meta game or via the online game itself. You'll have the ability to grow an entire new dimension to your character or the world from the web meta game.

The Meta Game Technology

The Meta Game Technology is under construction and will gradually be released as we continue to develop this meta game and as players solve the puzzles.
