The Mission

Tonight, the Carnival Needs Detectives!

🎩 Magnifico the Magnificent
Opening night at the Starlight Carnival! The Ferris wheel is lit, the popcorn is popping, and the Ringmaster has polished the Golden Star prizes for tonight's champion players. But — disaster! Magnifico the Magnificent, the carnival's mischievous magician, has waved his wand and hidden eight Prize Stars in booths all over the midway. Then he locked the Ringmaster's prize vault with one final code and vanished in a puff of purple smoke, leaving only a note: "One last game before the gates open at sundown. Solve my eight booths, detectives… if you can!" Your team's mission: visit every booth, solve its puzzle, and recover all 8 Prize Stars. Each star carries a number — keep them safe! You will need every star at the vault.

Ticket Booth

🎟️ Rosa, the ticket seller
The ticket seller, Rosa, waves your team over. "Magnifico bought tickets for the whole carnival crew this morning," she says, "and he paid with one big bill. He told me the change I gave him is the secret — 'the vault loves tidy numbers,' he said. Count the change carefully, detectives. Its digits, in cents, are the code for my booth's lock — and the first Prize Star!

Rings flying over rows of colored bottles at the ring toss booth

Ring Toss

🧢 Old Gus, the ring-toss keeper
At the Ring Toss, old Gus racks the bottles back up. "Magnifico played twenty-four perfect tosses," he grumbles, gesturing at the scoreboard, "then he says to me: 'Gus, the star goes to the color that caught exactly one quarter of all the rings that landed.' One quarter, detectives. One color. But hear this — that bottle's neck is worn thin as eggshell from a thousand rings. Land three of my rings on the true bottle and something back there is bound to give. My ringer board — behind the crate, where I chalk how to spot a ringer — will tell a careful detective the rest. And if the rack gives something up? The booth gate by the counter has been locked since Tuesday. Just saying.

…and mind the shine where the rings have kissed it. Three of my rings on the ringer trips the gate!

Prize Wheel

🎩 Magnifico's note, pinned to the wheel
The Prize Wheel spins lazily in the breeze. Its number panels read 4 · 7 · 14 · 17 · 34 · ? · ? — the last two panels have been unscrewed and hidden! A sticky note from Magnifico flutters on the axle: "My wheel always follows its rule — finish its panels and it will spin true. Then flip my cap, read my missive, and ask the wheel the right word. It answers in numbers, detectives."

Funhouse Mirrors

🎩 Magnifico's voice, echoing from the rafters
The Funhouse door creaks open. Inside, a grand mirror stands dark and sleeping, its glass too dim to read — and somewhere behind that glass waits the fourth Prize Star. Magnifico's voice echoes from the rafters: "I hid my mirror's word where only lamplight can read it, detectives — one letter in each of my curios, written in reflections. Bare eyes see nothing in my funhouse. Bring a light… and sweep it slowly."

Milk Bottle Toss

🥛 The Booth Keeper
Three milk bottles stand on the Milk Bottle Toss counter, each with a chalk label tied to its neck. The booth keeper grins: "Magnifico chalked a claim on every label — and he swears exactly one label lies. Never more, never less. The labels talk about each other, detectives, so judge them together. And put that ball down — bare hands won't topple my bottles. Some fool has hidden my slingshot somewhere in this booth. Find it, and you may throw — but hear me: my slingshot stays chained until you can prove the lie. Name the label that lies, and the label that gives it away. Proof first — then throw. Knock down only the liar and the shelf itself will show you the code. Knock down an honest bottle, though, and I'll stack the whole shelf back up — and you'll judge them fresh!
🥛 The Keeper's Shelfjudge the labels, detectives
BOTTLE A "Bottle C is the LIAR."
BOTTLE B "Bottle A is the LIAR."
BOTTLE C "Bottle B is NOT the liar."

The keeper drawls: "Slide a bottle to peek behind it. Tap one to flip its claim. And find my slingshot before you dream of throwing."

Fortune Teller

🔮 Madame Zara
Madame Zara's striped tent smells of lavender and secrets. On her table, a message glitters in strange symbols — Magnifico's fortune for tonight's detectives. "The symbols hide a message every great team should hear," murmurs Madame Zara. "I can give you a few letters of my symbol key… the rest, your team must deduce. Type the whole message to claim the star.

Ferris Wheel

🎩 Magnifico, through a megaphone
High above the midway, the Ferris wheel turns slowly. Five friends — Sam, Tara, Ana, Rocco and Seth — are riding in a row of five seats, numbered 1 to 5 from the left. Magnifico, calling through a megaphone, laughs: "The star goes to the team that can tell me who sits where! Here are your clues, detectives. Get the row right, and the first letters of their names, in seat order, will spell the lock's word!

The Prize Vault

⭐ The Prize Vault
At last — the Ringmaster's Prize Vault, gleaming behind the main stage. Seven Prize Stars sparkle in your team's satchel, each stamped with its number. Carved into the vault door, in Magnifico's curly handwriting: "Socket my stars in their order, detectives, and my carving will wake. Then turn my dial exactly as the carving directs — click by click, star by star. The vault counts with you. Rest where the carving tells you to rest, and the prizes are free!" Behind you, the carnival crowd is gathering. The gates open at sundown. This is it, detectives.
⭐ THE SEVEN STARS YOU WON ARE THE COMBINATION ⭐

CLICK THE DIAL RIGHT — THE 1ST STAR'S NUMBER OF CLICKS, THE 7TH STAR'S NUMBER OF TIMES. ONCE MORE — THE 2ND STAR'S CLICKS, THE 6TH STAR'S TIMES. REST NOW. WHAT THE WINDOW SHOWS IS THE KEY. AND MY STARS SHALL SPELL MY LAST WORD — READ THEM AS THEY LIGHT.
Socket all seven stars — tap a satchel star, then its socket on the door; tap a socketed star to pop it back. Each star has exactly one home, and the carving wakes only for a full set.
