Help shape a fascinating tale of danger, intrigue, and stubborn bubbles.
Previously on Adventure on Mystery Island
After an unfortunate plane crash and a rather fortunate encounter with the enigmatic Monolith of Multitude, you end up with sand in your shoes, a precious code for Rebel Galaxy in your pocket, and a healthy dose of curiosity in your gut.
The path towards the second Monolith goes through the foreboding Sidequest Castle, which turned out to be the home of a slightly unhinged but rather jolly dragon who loooooves role-playing. You unwittingly become her knight is shining prose and after your reluctant participation in a humiliating play, you escape towards the Bridge of DOOM. Having done some not-so-careful thinking, you conclude that you can either race through it or pole-vault over it on a large stick...
Catch up on <span class="bold">Chapter 1</span>, <span class="bold">Chapter 2</span>, and <span class="bold">Chapter 3</span> of the story.
<h4>CHAPTER 4: Brainstorm Basin</h4>
You grab a huge stick that looks slightly sturdier than the rest and launch your possibly suicidal pole-vaulting effort. Against all odds, moments later you are gracefully arching over the Bridge. It is majestic to behold.
But the moment passes. You don't.
Halfway through you realise that your stick is too short; you're so going to die. But perhaps not! As you're falling to your untimely death, a giant bird plucks you out of the air and after a brief flight full of high-pitched screams and whimpering prayers, it drops you right on the other side of the chasm.
Yeah, it was actually going after that huge twig you were riding to use on its nest.
Now then, it's time to see what awaits inside that ancient temple building blocking your way.
Finally, something calm and relaxing for a change! In the middle of the ancient temple, rests the Brainstorm Basin, where great thinkers and puzzle-lovers soak in a pool of their own ideas. Regrettably, they won't let you continue your journey until you solve them the ultimate puzzle: how can one put three bubbles inside a larger one without popping any of them?
Come on brain, you know this. Right?
Looks like your only option is to either THINK OUTSIDE THE BUBBLE or BURST THEIR BUBBLE.
