Da Vinci Code Quest
The Da Vinci Code Quest began on April 17th (drat missed it, but *phew* - you can play catch up), and gives you a puzzle to solve every day for 24 days. If you solve all 24 puzzles correctly you have a chance of winning "untold riches" (tickets to preview screenings of the film would be my uncharitable guess). The two "puzzles" I've played so far have been simple, but quite nice, flash mini games. I'm not sure if things are going to get harder as time goes on. The best thing about the game, at least for g33ks like me, is that it integrates into your personalised google homepage, so I'll actually remember to play everyday. See the pic below [subbed by THC & sopdox].

Hey everyone,

I just found out that US contestants play against each other; UK contestants play against each other; and Australian contestants play against each other. So there will be three winners, one from each country. (Each prize package is differant as well.)

Good solving too all!!

Wuxxler (#1032), I have a suggestion...if you cannot afford the taxes on the prize please make a charitable donation to ME and I will ensure not only will the taxes be paid, but there will be marshmallows for ALL aplenty!!

Can I ask some new players to PLEASE check all the answers already listed above (c'mon, it's not THAT hard!) to save repetition and time wasting.

The earlier link given to the Wiki page containing all the answers has since been closed down...spoilsports!!

Bring it on, we're ready for the final lap now!!!

This is SUCH an amazing game so far.

:
Gekory5 (#1039), as already said, if you scan ALL the posts above (or make your observation problem a bit more specific, coz we've had four of them so far!) then you will probably get your answer.
Someone has partially resurrected the Wiki answer page with answers up to puzzle 15 if that helps too...

good luck!
