The Adventures of Red
When a little yellow creature mysteriously named Red spies a sign advertising a free muffin, nothing's going to stop him. Of course, this muffin turns out not to be so much a "free as in no strings attached" muffin. It's more of a "free as in you must first complete a gauntlet of puzzles while pointing and clicking your way around a mysterious castle" kind of muffin. Made by Rob and John Donkin, The Adventures of Red serves up some classic challenges and a few twists of its own.

Got all but one gem...
For the One ring, obvious reference to the "Lord of the Rings", just remember what happen to the ring at the beginning with Frodo, the ring and making some characters appear when
the ring get in the fire.
At least it's something I think I remember from the movie...
Also maybe one puzzle I haven't found a solution.
Not sure that's a puzzle in fact.
In the left tower (top room), there is a pannel with 4 "words", but I haven't found what they mean or if they have a use. Maybe a problem because I'm not a native English speaker, I tried to rearrange the letters like in the previous puzzle but I didn't find anything.
Can't finish because:
There are no matches whatsoever in my "wall of shields" room. And the walkthrough is useless here, since it apparently is supposed to change every game -- there's no shield that matches the one pair he picks in the walkthrough.
After spending almost 40 minutes meticulously documenting each one, on paper, so that I could KNOW there were no duplicates, I'm angry enough to forget this game forever. Bad puzzle, dude.
The sliding cross puzzle near the end of the game is glitchy. Looks like I'll have to start over from the beginning if I want to finish the game. :~(
Solved with The Power Of The Post! If anyone else has the same problem I had, do this:
At first, I thought I had to click the corresponding boxes from 1 to 6. My number was 615423 so I was clicking the second box, then the fifth, then the sixth, etc. What you are supposed to do is click the Xth box in order that they are listed: Click the sixth box, then the first, then the fifth, etc. Let me just add that the ambiguity of this puzzle caused a lot of headaches for me. But then, it is a puzzle after all!
@Cornelius
I wonder if you're doing what I did?
You can misinterpret the code... ex) 315246 and 6 buttons, you can either:
a) Take that as the "numbers" on the buttons and push the buttons from 1 to 6, ie the second button (the place where the one is!), the third button (the place where the two is), etc, or
b) Take that as which buttons to press in sequence, ie the third button (since the first number is 3), the first (since the second number is 1), etc.
If I recall correctly, it was b) here.
Geez, I know I am triple-posting here but I keep seeing new posts after typing up and posting something. Sorry!
@Cornelius
I was even going so far as to find patterns like the last sentence in the riddle, something like "and in the castle guard them" and notice that "and" could be "&" which would give me 6 words, each 1 to 6 letters in length, then trying to press those in order. Heh.
Lexi
Do you mean the 9 black squares or the 36 black squares? For the 9, turn them white in any order. For the 36 you have to turn the ones white that have codes writen (E3, F3 etc) around the room - there should be four to turn white. x axis is letters, y axis is numbers.
Paul
There's a youtube walkthrough if you click walkthrough while in the game - bottom left of the screen.

Thanks to chiktionary for the walkthrough!
WALKTHROUGH
I will refer to rooms with coordinates. So from left to right is A to F, from bottom to top is 1 to 6. You will understand this as soon as you find the map.
Solutions of the puzzles. If you think you messed a puzzle up you can go to the menu and then continue playing. All puzzles will then be reset.
WELCOME room (A1)
There is no puzzle here. Take the key and open the door.
Second room (B1)
Click on the tiles to turn them and get the painting of Mona Lisa.
Third room (C1)
Open the chest and take the map.
You have to make a certain colour pattern on the rightmost shield.
You may start by looking at the same part on the three shields on the left.
The colour pattern must be the way that there is no colour twice on the same parts of the shields.
The pattern is: top left and bottom right => blue (click twice); top right and bottom left => green (click four times)
D1
Your aim is to get the skull into the shape in the center.
But you need the right weight to keep the shape open.
Look at the equations on the left. You will need the bucket and the sand to get the right weight.
Drag 6 portions of sand into the bucket. Then drag the bucket to the spot where the skull is and drag the skull into the shape in the center.
E1
You have to find the key for each chest. Hover over a chest to see on the right scroll which key you need. Then hover over the keys to find the right one. It changes everytime so find them yourself.
F1
Push the button, keep the sequence in mind and click on the gems in the right order. The sequence is randomly generated. Repeat until all three torches are lit up.
A2
The writing on the wall gives a hint.
The letters MIX are roman numerals.
The correct number is 1009
B2
Drag the stone and find a key.
C2
Find the pairs. I think it's different every time so I can't help you out here. Note: Pairs have the same orientation so it should not be too hard.
D2
These are the towers of Hanoi. You must put the tower onto the stake on the right. (It won't work on the center stake.)
The rules are as follows: You may only take on piece at a time. You may only put a smaller piece onto a bigger piece not vice versa.
Solution: I will refer to the stakes as A, B, C (left to right) and the pieces as 1 to 4 (small to big).
1B 2C 1C 3B 1A 2B 1B 4C 1C 2A 1A 3C 1B 2C 1C
E2
The skull has to get to the center.
Look at the scroll. Maybe the color sequence is a hint how to get there.
The skull must pass the arrows in the order red-blue-yellow-green-red- and so on.
I will not write that all, so figure it out yourself. It's not that hard.
F2
You have to turn the circles in order to form a line. The starting positions change everytime.
Help for the right wheel: Start with the outmost circle and go step by step to the inner circles, only concentrating on the circle you click on. When the most inner circle is in the right position, start from the outmost again and correct them.
A3
You have to find the order in which to click the gems. Look at the scroll.
The hints for Emerald, Diamond, and Amber are obvious so Ruby can be determined via exclusion principle.
The correct order is Ruby, Emerald, Diamond, Amber
B3
See the hammer next to the door?
Get the hammer and smash the vases.
Find a green key, a hat and a blue key.
C3
Find the differences.
Left crown on the left
Right crown at the top
The knight's head
The horse's tail
The blanket that the knight is sitting on
D3
Every bell makes a different tone. Look at the scroll for the correct order.
If you have no sound or no good musical hearing, look at the tv for the wavelength. A shorter wavelength means a higher tone.
The correct order is (with 1 to 5 from left to right): 3 1 2 5 4 3
E3
No puzzle in here. But a hat and a map behind the left candleholder.
F3
No puzzle in here. Drag the key to the chest.
A4
Another rotate the tiles of the picture. It's not that hard.
B4
What may these words on the wall mean? Maybe they have something to do with the items you can click.
The words are anagrams.
They are in the right order.
The correct words are sword, diamond, shield, candle.
C4
The scroll is a reference to Lord of the Rings.
Drag the ring into the fire and notice the numbers.
Push the buttons in the order the ring is telling you.
615423
D4
The scroll says you have to "find the right way".
Which letters may lead along the right way?
"the right way"
E4
Drag the stone aside to reveal "E3" written on the wall. Is that a hint?
There are more of these hints in this room.
"B2" above the left door, "A5" at the right window, "F3" at the right door.
Maybe they are coordinates for the grid.
The use of coordinates for the grid is the same as for the rooms in this Walkthrough. Click on the according tiles.
F4
You have to light up all torches. Every torch lights up or dowses the adjacent torches on the left, right, top and bottom.
Click the torches at the corners and the center.
A5
You have to find the two shields that are exactly(!) the same. It obviously changes every time, so just look really precisely.
B5
A reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Funny, isn't it?
The knights have to get to the other side. There is only one way. (Well, actually two but they are symmetrical.) Be careful to never get two knights facing the same direction directly behind each other.
This is the correct sequence. I will refer to the knight on the very left as 1 then 2 and so on, no matter which direction they look.
3 4 5 4 2 1 2 4 6 6 4 2 2 4 4
C5
The skull can be moved around and changes the tiles between black and white. Try to make all tiles white.
In order to not leave a black tile all alone in a white surrounding try to move the skull back and forth.
Here's one possible solution: left, up, down, down, right, up, down, right, up, up, down
D5
You have to find the key.
Find the "key".
Try clicking on the tiles near the ground. Looks like foreign glyphs.
Maybe the scrolls can help you translate.
Look at the first line in each scroll. "yore" has 4 letters but the according word in the right scroll seems to have more characters.
Maybe it's five like in "shield"?
Possibly two of the lines are interchanged.
The first and third line are interchanged.
Alright, here's the solution:
k => similar to y (sth. like a crotch)
e => similar to H
y => looks like a lightning symbol
E5
The tiles can be rotated in groups of four. But what is that scroll on the left about?
Maybe you have to form the pattern on the left.
Here's a solution: Click the top left 1x, bottom left 1x, middle left 2x. Now top right 3x, bottom right 3x, middle right 2x.
F5
You have to form the pattern on the scroll with your tiles.
Here is the easiest way (imho):First interchange the yellow and green ones then the red and blue ones. So 3 down, 1 to the right, 6 up, 1 left, 5 down, 1 right, 4 up, 1 left, 3 down, 1 right, 2 up, 1 left, 4 down, 1 right. Now do the same with red and blue and get the empty space to the center and Voilá.
A6
No puzzle in here that relates to the game.
What? You wanna know what the writing on the board is about? Try to read it out aloud.
Try to say it without making a pause between the words.
The writer just set the space characters in the wrong places.
Still don't get it? Try to ponder over it a bit more.
FOR ASSES TO PONDER OVER
F6
Tadaaaaaaa!!! You won! Blueberry?! Really?! I hate Blueberry. Poor little red. :(
Locations of the gems.
Note: There is maximal one gem in a room.
A1
Left window, at the top.
C1
Behind the potted plant
D1
Behind the pile of sand
F1
At the bottom of the big yellow gem.
B2
On the emblem on the head of the bird
D2
Behind the rearward table-leg on the left.
F2
Behind the right wheel, right to the top.
B3
In the window top row, second to the left. Bottom right corner.
C3
At the very left of the scroll
D3
At the top of the center bell
E3
At the top of the right flame.
F3
Behind the footbridge to the right of the top of the ladder.
A4
In the right window, at the top.
C4
In the center of the shield on the left.
D4
Drag the stone aside.
F4
Behind the candle on the right.
B5
At the top left of the scroll.
E5
Open the chest.
A6
At the top left of the board.
F6
Behind the potted plant on the left. The bottom left branch.
Blueberry muffin. I guess you have to get all the diamonds and hats.
I wish there had been a map bonus that would let you jump directly to a room. I didn't find it fun to have to navigate around. (Minus 1/4 star)
Even with a magnifier, I could barely see some of the hints on the wall. Maybe instead of just hiding then by using black on dark brown, they could be revealed by mousing over. (Minus 3/4 star)
But still, a super fun game. I got most of the puzzles without a hint from the walkthrough. But I still have dents in my forehead from facepalms for a couple of them that I shouldn't have needed hints for.
I'm stuck on the last puzzle. :( Here's what it looks like now:
http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/view/23815447
What would I have to do to fix it? Thanks!
Am I missing something here? I'm stuck on the one before 'colourful cross' according to the walkthrough. I just can't figure out what's wrong with the solution I got...
http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/9482/redadventures.png
Help please!
I'm stuck on the last level! I am soooo very close. I am only one square away from delightful muffiny victory! Can anyone help me out, or do I have to start over?
Has anyone actually gotten a CHOCOLATE muffin? It seems as though
And my attention span ran out so I don't want to play through again. Also, I don't have total faith that there even is a chocolate one>
great puzzles though! I got frustrated and used the walkthrough on the last one. (my very short attn span, hello)
The idea that you'll get a chocolate muffin rather than a blueberry one if you complete the game with all the diamonds and hats first try is obviously false, as the last diamond in the last room can only be obtained after having already been presented with the muffin! Even the official walkthrough shows this.
Still, this is an excellent game, I must say.
Elpunt Thing, I thought that was what you had to do too at first, but then I figured out that your suppose to
get all of the reds in the top left corner, all of the greens in the top right corner, all of the yellows in the bottom right corner, and all of the blues in the bottom left corner.
Hope this helps!
