to Big Fish Games! After two bouts of bad customer service with them, they are on my blacklist. I'm totally loyal to Reflexive games though! In the meantime, I'm not getting much headway with Level 10. Sigh. A hint I found elsewhere says:
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | "View source. Look at the title. You should get enough clues to do some arithmetic." Really though, I need a little more than that. Maybe its cause I flunked third grade cause of my math (or non-math) skills! |

Whoami, that was a toughie. Did you find all the substitutions? They give you 5 of the 10 (0-9) numbers right off. With that you can get two more easily, then you only have three left!
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | r=0, n=3, u=9, F=8, E=1. If you sub the n's and e's, that will give you the w and o (3+3 =6; 1+1 = 2). |

I've only found two of the substitutions. And, I must be a complete idiot, cause I have no idea what you mean by...
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | If you sub the n's and e's, that will give you the w and o (3+3 =6; 1+1 = 2). I found the e=1 by hovering the mouse over the two formulas. And the R=0 in the title of the page. Where did you get the rest? | Maybe I just need some sleep. I've been up 17 hours now. Though its rather good cause usually I'm up for 24-36 hours before I'm able to catch a few zzz's. So now that Mom's tucked in for a while, I think I'll get me a few hours nap, and try again this evening.

Whoami, more on level ten:
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | Select all the text on the page to see two more substitutions. There is another one in the view source info. The first formula is one plus one = two. So substituting the values you know, you get o31 plus o31 = two (t62). That gives you the value of w and o. Then you put in the o's (2) and you get the value of t. |

Well, I'm giving up for the night stuck on #46. If anyone can give me a hint or even the answer I'll take either one. TIA

Twinkie - 46:
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | It's a 3d wordsearch. Look in the source code to find how many words you're looking for and how many each are. Then, for the words, some of them are within one box only, but some others are across mulitple planes. So a word could be found, for example, across all five, starting in the top left corner on the first box, and bottom right on the last. The words you find make a question. | It sounds crazy scary but it's really not as hard as it sounds. Let me know if you need more help. I'm following the rules of the game and not offering flat-out answers. I'm stuck at 50, and will probably not get to look at it until the weekend. As I was snoozing my alarm on Monday morning, everytime it went off, in my mind I needed to figure out the right word to enter into it to get it to shut up.

THanks Kar! That makes more sense. Either you explained it better, or a few hours nap really i{Does} help!!
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | I could have sworn I already tried highlighting the whole page. Don't know where those other two letters were hiding, cause they were finally there this time. | On to #11. Boy, am I just cruising through this or what? Hate to tell you all, but in trying to find hints, I've heard people mention levels as high as 65 so far. I've also heard there's a Phase II. Anyone else hate me yet?

Yup, Twinkie, that's correct. Sorry, I should have clarified more:
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | Imagine if you printed out the five boxes and stacked them on top of each other. Then you'd have three dimensions -- five letters across, five letters down, five letters deep. Some of the words go depth-wise. Words can be found going up, down, diagonally, either forwards or backwards, so in theory, *the critical word* in the question that you're looking for - knowing that WHERE is the first word - *could run* from the *bottom right corner of the 5th box* to the top *left corner of the first box*. | Does that help?

No. I'm just not getting the depth part. Maybe its the time of night or the time I've been working on it but I'm not getting it.

LOL, Twinks. I've been there before. Try it again with fresh eyes in the morning. I'm going to try one more hint but not sure how much further I can go without giving you the answer. ETA: I must offer huge apologies as I made a mistake in my previous clue. Please see below:
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | Try to find a five letter word that goes diagonally from the top left corner of the 5th box in to the bottom right corner of the 1st box. The letter in box number four will be one up and one to the left of the letter in box #5. The letter in box 3 will be one up and one left from #4, etc., etc. | I can't think of anything else to tell you without giving the answer to you. If you're really, truly, still stuck - and ONLY click this box if you still don't get it...:

Woo hoo! I am staring at a screen that says, "Congratulations! You have reached the end of phase 1 of Zahada riddles. Thank you for playing. Please add your graffiti to the Phase 1 winners wall. Do you want to play phase 2?" I signed the winners wall and I'm moving on. I'm certain my husband hates me.

Karen, just curious - how many levels are there? I'm sitting at 48a with Twinkie. Maybe over the holidays I'll get back to it.

I think it stops at 73, Karuuna. Maybe 75? Phase I ended at level 50. You guys are so close!

I stopped at I think level 65. ( really can't remember the number) Anyway, it was one where you had to do print out the page, and cut out the figures, and fold the paper into letters to get a word. I thought I had it, but the answer brought me to level 67 instead of 66. So I had it wrong from my guess. Since I have quit for good, could someone PM what the word was for the one you had to cut out and fold? Thanks.

Okay, NC finally got me started on this. He's been asking me about it, but I knew once I got started it would be compelling me to work on it constantly. I don't need any more reason to sit online. Anyway, I breezed through the first ten levels with some help from the hints here. But I am stuck at level eleven. It's the binary one. I have tried the hints here, but apparently I need a more direct hint. What does view source mean? Is that the title at the tab on the upper left of my screen? Thanks
