The HxF Mole 4 - Task 2: Treasure Hunt

Kardan · 09-08-2015, 07:00 PM

This task was originally from HxF Mole 1.

Here is a 8x8 grid, under each square is some treasure:

Under the squares you could find:
VIP Days for the group prize fund (Both negative and positive amounts)
Exemptions (Bypass the next execution quiz)
Neutralisation (Cancel an exemption from a player)
Freebies (Skip questions on the execution quiz)
Nothing (Does nothing)
Game Over (Your turn is over and you lose all prizes earned to that point)

For their turn, players must choose one number at a time (posted in bold) and the contents of this square will be revealed. Providing a player doesn’t uncover a game over square, they can choose between taking another turn revealing another square, or cash in their current winnings. Once you cash in your winnings, or uncover a game over square, you may not take any more turns.
By revealing another square, you are putting at risk your current winnings for the chance of adding further prizes to your winnings.

For example: Bob picks square 1 and wins a day of VIP. He chooses to continue, and picks square 2 and gets a game over. Bob wins nothing and can make no more moves.

Dave picks square 3 and wins a day of VIP. He chooses to continue, and picks square 4 and wins an exemption. He chooses to cash in his winnings, and Dave wins a day of VIP for the prize fund and an exemption to himself. He can make no more moves.

The task will end at 8pm BST or when all players have finished.
