Hints

Hints unlock one at a time: open Hint 1, and only then does Hint 2 appear. Stop the moment the case clicks.

Hint 1 Tap to reveal

Start with the below-5000m clue: the two climbers two columns away from Brazil (Climber C) are A and E, so they take the two lowest altitudes.

Hint 2 Tap to reveal

Charlotte's altitude is almost twice Rina's — 8150 vs 4100 — which fixes Climber B and Climber E in one move.

Hint 3 Tap to reveal

The Japanese climbers sit at 3200 m and 5600 m, so Climber A = 3200 and Climber D = 5600 with Japan flags.

Hint 4 Tap to reveal

Male climbers refuse to carry a Map, so the Map/Compass goes to the female Climber D (Yuki); the gear between Russia and the Oil Lamp fills Rope for C and Oil Lamp for E.

Video walkthrough

Watch the full solve: the board, the clue cards, and every placement in order — each step below is anchored to the moment it happens in the run.

  1. 1 Read the opening clues and the Brazil neighbors 0:00 – 0:06

    Use the opening clue to place the two lowest altitudes.

    Brazil is Climber C; the climbers two columns away are A and E, so their altitudes are below 5000 m.

  2. 2 Charlotte's altitude is almost twice Rina's 0:06 – 0:12

    Fix Climber B and Climber E altitudes with the double clue.

    Among 3200/4100/5600/6800/8150, only 8150 is nearly twice 4100, so Charlotte = 8150 and Rina = 4100; combined with step 1, Rina is Climber E.

  3. 3 The Japanese climbers at 3200 and 5600 0:12 – 0:18

    Lock Climber A and D altitudes and flags.

    The Japan flags sit on A and D, so Climber A = 3200 and Climber D = 5600, both with Japan flags.

  4. 4 Rina wears her Gray jacket 0:18 – 0:24

    Set Climber E's Jacket Color.

    Rina is Climber E, so put Gray into E's Jacket Color cell.

  5. 5 Male climbers refuse the Map 0:24 – 0:30

    Give the Map/Compass to the female Climber D.

    Only female climbers use a Map; Climber D (Yuki) still has no Equipment, so give Map/Compass to Climber D.

  6. 6 Gear between Russia and the Oil Lamp 0:30 – 0:36

    Fill the remaining Equipment cells.

    Russia is Climber B and the Oil Lamp is Climber E, so the middle C takes Rope, E takes Oil Lamp, and A takes Backpack (Kael collects stones).

  7. 7 Only one Russian, and she is female 0:36 – 0:42

    Confirm Climber B's flag and gear.

    The single Russia flag is female, so only Charlotte (Climber B) is Russian; put the Russia flag in B and give B the Ice Axe/Rope gear.

  8. 8 Fill the jackets and the last altitude 0:42 – 0:48

    Complete the Jacket Color column and Climber C's altitude.

    Climber C (Tom/Pete) wears Mustard; A is Orange, B is Teal, D is Indigo; E's flag is Germany (the leftover); give Climber C the 6800 altitude.

  9. 9 Check all 30 cells 0:48 – 0:52

    Verify the full grid.

    Count 5 climbers x 6 categories: A=Kael/Orange/Japan/Backpack/3200, B=Charlotte/Teal/Russia/Ice Axe-Rope/8150, C=Tom Pete/Mustard/Brazil/Rope/6800, D=Yuki/Indigo/Japan/Map-Compass/5600, E=Omar Rina/Gray/Germany/Oil Lamp/4100 — LEVEL COMPLETE appears when all match.

  10. 10 Confirm the clear 0:48 – 0:52

    Watch for the completion screen.

    The level is done once LEVEL COMPLETE! shows.

Trickiest clues

Putting Charlotte or Rina in the wrong column

The almost-twice clue pairs 8150 with 4100, but only Rina is known to be at 4100 — Charlotte must be Climber B (8150) and Rina Climber E (4100), matching the below-5000m rule for E. Swapping them breaks both the altitude and the gender-neighbor layout.

Giving a male climber the Map

Male climbers refuse to bring a Map and rely on the stars. The Map/Compass belongs to Climber D (Yuki, female); assigning it to Tom/Pete or Kael will collide with the gender clues and the equipment-between-Russia-and-Oil-Lamp rule.

Forgetting the second Mustard jacket

More than one climber wears a Mustard-colored jacket — that refers to Climber C (Tom and Pete share the jacket). Treating Mustard as a single-cell color leaves the jacket column incomplete and the grid cannot verify.

Final check

A five-climber, six-category grid whose opening clues collapse fast. The below-5000m rule (two columns from Brazil) fixes A and E as the low altitudes; the almost-twice clue then assigns Charlotte = 8150 (B) and Rina = 4100 (E). Japan's 3200/5600 pair locks A = 3200 and D = 5600 with Japanese flags. Rina's Gray jacket colors E. Male climbers skip the Map, so Yuki (D) takes Map/Compass; the between-Russia-and-Oil-Lamp rule gives C the Rope and E the Oil Lamp, while Kael's Backpack fills A. The single female Russian is Charlotte (B, Ice Axe/Rope), C gets Mustard (Tom/Pete), and the leftover Teal/Orange/Indigo jackets plus Germany for E complete the remaining cells.
