I was on the fence about this and then ended up impulse buying it on Amazon today. I won't be able to start it in earnest until August (going out of the country and this doesn't exactly seem portable) but this sounds utterly insane in the best way possible. Roy Leban has other great products out there; I'm a huge fan of Puzzazz, which is his puzzle-solving app with very cool tech that makes digital solving really smooth and has a bunch of cool complex puzzle books on it, including The Maze of Games, which has been discussed elsewhere here.

The flower/bottle is actually a cotton gin. And the thing that looks like a scraper is a spring clip, used for holding packs of paper together. I need to revisit my bottom row still. I only know that it is wrong.

I'm thinking the square-shaped thing at the end of the top row is a key from a computer keyboard.

For the beginning and end of the bottom row, try railroad ties and Tiger Woods

For the beginning and end of the bottom row, try railroad ties and Tiger Woods Is the former one of these because you can then get Saw Horse and Baby Oil from the sheet that goes above the ties?

I need help from all you smart people. I have solved all the puzzles except the Conundrum. I have played the game about 10 times and am no closer to the solution. I'm stuck. Please help me if you can.

I finally solved The Conundrum. I must have played the game about 20 times. Now I'm on to the Knight's Tour.

Well thanks to muchos help here with the opening puzzle, I have mine all pieced together - although I still don't understand a number of (what I hope are) Americanisms - and it should give me a final answer. Er.... I see nothing except for eight letters when I flip it over, from top to bottom YDASEUSX
This doesn't decode to the index so is...wrong? Not the final answer I was looking for?

Alright, so looking at the side I've paired together, laying it out on the floor and standing on a chair, the black items seem to make...a face? No idea who of? EINSTEIN?

Thank you both - good old Donald Trump you mean? Just kidding. Although I had to google the note - can you guys tell me who is on the back of the UK £5 note off the top of your heads?
