Six places in the cabinet
Place the six objects A-F into a cabinet with two rows and three columns. Use each object once and fill every place. Give the top row, then the bottom row, both left to right.
COOPERATIVE FOLIO 04 / ENGLISH LAUNCH EDITION
Cabinet of Echoes.
Reconstruct a museum display from two incomplete archives.
A cabinet has been emptied, its glass panel turned dark, and two accession labels switched. One of you holds the curator's notes, the other the conservator's records. Rebuild the display without looking at each other's sheets.
Exactly 2 players · Three fixed-answer cases · English only
Different papers. One shared deduction.
The five-page sample contains a short setup, both private roles, two optional hints and the complete explained answer. It is Case 01 of the paid edition, with the same answer. You can finish it without buying anything.
- Print one copy. Give page 2 to Curator (Player A) and page 3 to Conservator (Player B).
- Talk freely and make shared notes, but keep your role sheets private.
- Cover pages 4-5 until you want a hint or the solution. Use two pencils and scrap paper; no cutting, glue or app.
Three cases to compare and solve.
The dark glass panel
Restore a 3 x 3 panel of pale and dark squares. Each square is exactly one of the two. Give three rows of 0s and 1s, with 1 = dark and 0 = pale.
Two false accession labels
Exactly two of the six objects have false accession labels. Identify both object codes and their accession numbers. The identities and placements from Case 01 do not change; this is a new label deduction.
One ZIP includes the same complete 12-page game in A4 and US Letter layouts, plus a README. Separate role sheets, progressive hints and explained answers are included. This launch edition is English only. The answers stay fixed on replay; these are standalone cases, with no purchase of another game required.
