Neopets Cliffhanger

Cliffhanger is one of the old school games on Neopets, designed to be like its real life equivalent ‘hang man’. In the similar strain of morbid humour, our hero the Tuskaninny marches closer and close to the edge of a perilously high cliff each Cliffhanger question you fail to answer correctly. Its your job to stop him from reaching the end and plunging off onto a barrage of pointed spikes, by correctly identifying the Cliffhanger sentence before too many guesses.

Gameplay

The gameplay of this game is simple, and below is a screenshot of your typical game play:

In the centre, you can see our Tuskaninny making his way towards the edge of the cliff. The sentence you need to identify is under the heading ‘YOUR PUZZLE’, and each letter is denoted by an underscore. Beneath that, you have a list of available letters, and in order to guess a letter you must click it there. If correct, the puzzle will automatically fill in all instances of the letter appearing in the phrase, if not – your Tuskaninny will move a few meters closer to the edge of the cliff. All of the letters you have used so far, correct and incorrect, will be placed in the table ‘USED LETTERS’ pictured bottom right.

You have three difficulty levels to choose from, Easy, Medium and Hard. The main difference between the three are the number of letters you have to pick in order to complete your puzzle. For example, by playing the game in ‘Easy’ you will receive all 26 letters at the start. ‘Medium’ leaves you with just B, C, D, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z. Whilst ‘Hard’ has available just B, C, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, V, W, X, Y, and Z.

There is an avatar to be gained in this game, however that will mean sacrificing a Tuskaninny, for the avatar is only won by losing. The best way to do this is guess a string of nonsense letters, or deliberately pick obscure letters (X, Z, Q etc.) until your Tuskaninny plunges off the edge.
