  • Ticket #15225 – Description

    initial v1  
    11In Act 4 of the game, you will come across Benjamin Franklin's puzzle box, which is just a fancy 15 puzzle. The initial scramble appears to be non-random, because it always looks like this:

    3 It also matches this YouTube playthrough, which appears to have been made with DOSBox: https://youtu.be/CpASiXJhrcM?list=PLwprFgobvKXbqEr9DSq0TNSnfT5Tu9YZU&t=635

     16This also seems consistent with https://github.com/sluicebox/sci-scripts/blob/65c4100d1ba073e89290554f51acbe78777e3c95/pepper-dos-1.000/src/rm116.sc#L225

    1618Unfortunately, this is not a solvable 15 puzzle, unless you use the "Help" button. Is that really the solution, or is there more to this than meets the eye? If it is an original bug, should ScummVM (perhaps optionally) do something about it?
