Hi all,

Just made a video of me doing two paths of the puzzle.
At the end I linked to Ehmry.com (Hope that's okay?)

I wanted to be able to butcher the gingerbread at the end with my mouth. Lock them in a fenced off area and OMNOMNOM all of them while the children watch.

Also, if you consume food that gives you HP regen you gain a slight advantage if low HP is a problem.

I tried it for a long time (hours) and finally got it.  Now that I know how it works it's pretty easy. ;)

I'd agree if you weren't a senile, old man yelling at trees to get off your lawn before screaming "FOR NARNIA!" at the nearest squirrel.

Is low HP actually an issue? I only tried it on one character so I just assumed it took off a certain percent of heath every tick.

It does take of a percentage.  If you are in full armor it takes off more, but your pool is larger, no armor, less, smaller pool.  If you have regen food you can perhaps take a bit more time.  I did die once from low hp just before I jumped into the finish box.

I see your point. The first time I completed it I made it in with 115 health left, so it was a close call.

Yeah many of the people who completed the Clock Tower were like "Psh what?  Son please. This is eeezy."   I gave up after an hour and never looked back.

The Wintersday JP was right in my wheelhouse.

I enjoyed the Mad King's Clocktower. :D It was by no means easy until you had done it 5 or 6 times.

This one is a lot of fun because it's very zen once you know the paths and you've done it 20 or so times. Except for the horizontal candy canes, I rarely have to concentrate that hard, and even then it's more of a "oh, now I have to focus for a second". It's very nice for accruing ugly gifts. Also, if you didn't know, the chest respawns with the original loot (booster, snowflakes, gift, and karma) so be sure to go back and do it often! :)

It took me awhile to get it the first time, but now I'm fairly confident. The only part that really stresses me out is the snowballs and the finall present hop. I've missed those candy canes a few times. -.- I'll be going back and trying daily because that karma is a great incentive.

The clocktower was a bit more fun imo. Probably because if you failed, the wait time wasn't that long. This one feels like it takes foreeeever.

I still hate jumping puzzles, but this wasn't really that hard once you get past the standard awkwardness this game has with puzzles like this anyway. My very first try I got knocked off as soon as I loaded in, so I don't think it quite syncs right or something. Next two or three times I hit on some surface that was apparently invisible or fell through the edge of a snowflake. Didn't really take me that long overall but I didn't find it enjoyable enough to repeat. How much does the Flask give, anyway?

I think its around 4000 karma without any boosters
