Around one and a half minute was my personal record, but just because I bought a "How-to" manual. I know I'd never be able to do it just by myself. |

That was 25 something years ago. |

I figured out how to solve them a year and a half ago, and with multiple daily practice I can solve it in about 35 seconds. Thats not nearly as fast as a lot of people I know either...

| | You can't plagiarize yourself. | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Elgin, IL | | Do this instead.
To play, click the blue circle to start.
The following rules apply:
• Only 2 persons on the raft at a time.
• The father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their mother's presence.
• The mother cannot stay with any of the sons, without their father's presence.
• The thief (striped shirt) cannot stay with any family member, if the Policeman is not there.
• Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft.
To move the people, click on them. To move the raft, click on the pole on the opposite side of the river. The solution is possible! THIS IS NOT A TRICK!
