Your mission

Quill the owl is an astronomer, and her star chest is locked five ways. Her star map is a grid of squares. Every COLUMN has a letter and every ROW has a number, so every square has its own name, like C4. Say the letter first and then the number. Row 1 is at the bottom. With a grid, you can tell anyone exactly where to look, and exactly how to get from one square to another. Look closely and work together.

How to crack a lock

  • Pick any lock from the menu at the top. You can solve them in any order.
  • Read every clue before you start. One clue alone is never enough.
  • Use scratch paper. Draw pictures, make lists, and cross things out.
  • Tap the buttons to build your answer. Then press "Try the lock".
  • A lock will not tell you which part is wrong, so be sure before you try.
