    I got this off of another board

    It's one of those games. I tried for like 2 min and couldn't get it.

    http://freeweb.siol.net/danej/riverIQGame.swf

    Click on link, then click on blue circle. Use the rules below.

    Apparently this is an IQ test given to job applicants in Japan:

    "Everybody has to cross the river".

    The following rules apply:

    Only 2 persons on the raft at a time

    The father can not stay with any of the daughters, without their mother's presence

    The mother can not stay with any of the sons, without their father's presence

    The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member,if The Policeman is not there

    Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft

    To start click on the big blue circle on the right.

    To move the people click on them.

    To move the raft click on the pole on the opposite side of the river.

    Is this a real game or another trick game that tries to give the old folks around here a heart attack?

    it can be done..

    I also completed it... took about 10 minutes as I kept forgetting that I could just keep going after messing up.

    The key is in the positioning of the mother and father.

    Hint... You have to keep moving the jail bait from side to side. she can be left on either side all by herself.

    well I got everyone but the mother and 2 daughters. But since the father beats those poor girls when left alone with them. It may be best that they not get across.

    But being dumb as a rock in an Asian IQ test. Is genius in the great old USA.

    If you have the two girls and the mom on the one side (starting side) take the mom and one girl over. when coming back bring the jail bait and the cop.

    Not sure if that helped. But I some how stumbled upon it. Took a while to get where I was before. then I had two girls stuck alone, then just 1 girl stuck. Then I got it some how.

    I really have no idea how I did it.

    That was easy - just a variation of the puzzle where you have a boat, a lion, a sheep, and a bale of hay.
