The Mission
Tonight, the Carnival Needs Detectives!
๐ฉ 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 โ 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, detectivesโฆ if you can!"
Your team's mission: visit every booth, solve its puzzle, and recover all 8 Prize Stars.
Each star carries a number โ keep them safe! You will need every star at the vault.
How to play: Work as a team of 2โ3 detectives.
๐ Each booth hides one puzzle and one Prize Star. Type the answer into the booth's lock โ a correct answer opens the way to the next booth.
๐ก Stuck? Hints appear the longer you work: Hint 1 after 2 minutes, Hint 2 after 4, the Final Hint after 6, and the Answer itself after 10. Using hints is smart detective work, not cheating!
๐ Every booth tells its story right inside the room โ and each booth posts a ๐ Clue Help notice. Read them!
๐ Use the Notes page (top of the screen) to keep track of codes and star numbers.
๐ต Want music? Tap the Music button at the top for a cheerful carnival waltz while you play. It's off by default โ only your team can turn it on.

๐๏ธ 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 โ 'the vault loves tidy numbers,' he said.
Count the change carefully, detectives. Its digits, in cents, are the code for my booth's lock โ and the first Prize Star!

Ring Toss
๐งข 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. Choose carefully โ his lock wants the color's name.

A sticky note from Magnifico flutters on the axle: "My wheel always follows its rule. Find the two missing numbers,

๐ฉ Magnifico's voice, echoing from the rafters
The Funhouse door creaks open. Inside, a grand mirror glows โ and in the mirror, strange backwards writing shimmers
above the fourth Prize Star. Magnifico's voice echoes from the rafters: "Everything in my funhouse is exactly
as it seemsโฆ in a mirror. Read what the mirror is truly saying!"

๐ฅ The Booth Keeper
Three milk bottles stand on the Milk Bottle Toss counter, each chalked with its own math expression.
The booth keeper grins: "Magnifico says a champion knocks them down in order, left to right,
and the lock wants the bottles' values in that same order, one after the other. Mind your order of operations, detectives โ
multiplication and division before addition and subtraction!

Madame Zara's striped tent smells of lavender and secrets. On her table, a message glitters in strange symbols โ
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 keyโฆ the rest, your team must deduce. Type the whole message to claim the star.

Ferris Wheel
๐ฉ Magnifico, through a megaphone
High above the midway, the Ferris wheel turns slowly. Five friends โ Sam, Tara, Ana, Rocco and Seth โ
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!
๐ก Magnifico's Seating Clues
Ana rides in the middle seat (seat 3).
Tara sits immediately to Ana's left.
Rocco sits immediately to Ana's right.
Sam and Seth take the two end seats โ one at each end.
