Denkasen

By: Sirius

Category: experimental Age.

Notes: Check the original thread on the GoW forums and Sirius' photo gallery.

"It's a small holiday Age. Not really big, no fancy puzzle or anything. But !... It has a very particular feature that I believe will be very interesting to Age builders !
"Now, you might be wondering what that particular feature is. Well, I'm not going to tell you. Link there and try to find out ! It's not particularly well hidden, but be sure you don't miss it.
"The Age was built using mostly Korman (I manually patched the exported Age to fix a few things). I tried to make it as good-looking as I could, but it's still a bit empty to my tastes. Maybe I'll add some more things later (some rocks, a few patches of grass), but for now, just enjoy it as it is !"

Elodea

By: Dulcamara (with the help of Fruti and others for coding stuff like AlcScripts and Python code etc.)

Category: puzzle Age.

Notes: This is a vast universe consisting of four worlds (Elodea Mainland, Elodea Unterwelt, Elodea Tunnelgang and Elodea Schatzkammern).
You can follow the progress and read some backstory on the GoW forums here, where you'll also find many hints, clues, tips and outright solutions.

Walkthrough:

You can find a walkthrough in this thread.

Dulcamara describes her over many years developed and created wonderworld and age herself in brief like this on the GoW forums:

"Since I unfortunately do not speak perfect English (she is German), I got my friend Google Translator with this letter consulted. I hope it corresponds to what I wanted to express with this:
Elodea is a great age, consisting of 4 sections.
Elodea is the main world which you should work through to ElodeaUnterwelt, ElodeaTunnelgang and finally for ElodeaSchatzkammern.
In each of these ages seven cloths are to find that is a total of 28. If you are traveling as a group of 7 players, it is enough if each of the player affect only one of the cloth. Are all cloths pressed in any order a door opens that was not previously open.
It does not matter if a cloth was pressed several times. Unfortunately it was not possible for me to coordinate the order of the animation so that it runs as the original Cyan ages. It may be in Elodea that one finds cloth 5 before cloth 1. It does not matter, if seven cloths were found that opens the door.
There is also at the beginning of each Age a linking cloth (shown on the main world in the form of a sun), which has two functions.
Was already a cloth touched in this Age, the link cloth brings the explorers directly back to the vicinity of this cloth. That is, if one should be thrown for any reason from the Age, you can continue playing from that location or join a group of explorer already present.
Later in the offline version, it has the advantage that the player does not have to start from scratch again, but may continue on the last save, because Elodea is a little bit bigger ;-)...

In the main world Elodea there are also two link books that you intentionally cannot reach yet. They are located just outside of Elodea and are later additions for my age still in progress. Thats what I want to say..."

Elsewhere

By: denost2

Category: puzzle Age.

Notes: Third part of a trilogy with Somewhere and Iceworld.

By: denost2

Category: puzzle Age.

Notes: Second part of a trilogy with Somewhere and Elsewhere.
You can access Iceworld from Somewhere upon its completion, but is also directly accessible from the Nexus. For more information and hints and tips, check the GoW thread.

Walkthrough:

Check the comprehensive walkthrough on the GoW forums plus PDF file by Annabelle.

Someone, who completed this vast and beautiful age already, provided a very nice and appropriate review on the GoW forums as follows:
"I restarted from scratch and did it chronologically. What an awesome adventure!
"You have nice logic puzzles, awesome areas to explore, awesome animation sequences, flying objects to travel between areas. The final area is... well find out for yourselves...
"I ground my teeth a lot. Looking at a door and wondering why it wouldn't open until I did something else beforehand then retry. The other awesome thing about this age is that you have to do skilled moves at least 2 times during the gameplay. It's well-balanced between logic puzzles and moving your avatar puzzles. Definitely explorers will put that age in their favorites!"

A few more tips by the above mentioned explorer:

"There is a puzzle to solve to get out of that first building, you have to be very patient for that first one... Once solved, you will be in a huge world with hidden maze complexes and flying devices. To avoid the first building WITHOUT cheating, you can always try one of the links near the linking spot in the black area. You need to go thru the Nexus link though, and that only works IF you solve the first puzzle (there's only one link available at first) and you can then explore the world to register linking points..."
