It's Japanese (I think)

Basically "Everybody has to cross the river"

The following rules apply:

Only 2 persons on the raft at a time

The father can not stay with any of the daughters without their mother's presence

The mother can not stay with any of the sons without their father's presence

The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member if the Policeman is not there

Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft


To start click on the big blue circle on the right

To move the people click on them. To move the raft click on the pole on the opposite side of the river.


So what's the sequence??

The amusing thing is the parent punching the kids if left alone with them. I feel like that sometimes!

"honourable crooks" in Japan would maybe not run off. Bring shame for 3 generations on entire family. The mother and father need locking up, however!

Apologies to any Japanese board members - no offence intended.
