Description
You are bidding on a prototype of a Dee Dixon Classic.
Deciding between two different patterns, the one on this wardrobe's door has not made it into the larger batch released by Dee.
This one is not only a looker but also a wonderful SD journey.
The solution is pretty wild, definitley harder than Angry Walter.
For the final version of this puzzle, a few steps were added, but the solve is almost the same for this prototype.
The goal is to release the prize, the orb.
This is the short story behind the wardrobe and the orb:
The Village was happy. For years, its people celebrated nothing in particular; joyously throwing small objects into the sky and jumping up and down. Their kindness was so real, so tangible, that the Orb of Prosperity formed, giving the people something around which to dance in a rather silly, but quite happy, fashion.
King Oleg the Horrible, however, hated the happy hamlet – in fact, he hated everything: the sound of grass growing, the smell of fresh snow, and the tiny hats the people liked to wear. The King was cruel to the people in his kingdom, silencing laughter and kicking toddlers. For years, he would grumble and mumble incoherently to himself, but the dancing…. Oh, the dancing was the last straw for Oleg. He stole the Orb from the Village, and now things that were once thrown into the air are placed sadly on the floor.
Oleg has locked the Orb away in a secret compartment in a wardrobe he uses for small things like his fingernail clippings and sense of self-worth. Knight Nyte the Sleepy Soldier has stolen Oleg’s Wardrobe, but he can’t find the Orb! The cabinet opens, but the drawers are empty! Alas, without freeing the Orb the people’s prosperity will forever be out of reach. It is up to you to find the Orb so that its magic may be released, and the people saved, to laugh and dance and wear their tiny hats once more.
