@TheSuperPokemanz Hmmm. Never had that happen before. If there is not much water in it, say, it looks damp but not puddled, set it in the sun for a day, and it probably will dry out. If it has a sizable amount of water in it, or it is still damp after sunning, perhaps you'll need to poke or drill some holes in it to let the water out. If it were me, I'd make the holes about 1/8" diameter in the dome on the back side the start zone (where it says CE and Made In China). Put 5-6 holes in it.
WORD OF ADVICE: Do not be a hero and start from 0 every time. Use the practice starts for this one. If you don't use the practice starts, the ball will break from wear and tear before you ever finish.
Can you make a video just like this one for the original and the rookie please? I really like this one and haven't found any other videos that are this in-depth about the other two. But I would like to see a video for the others. I really need help with the original on 60 to 100. Thanks for such an awesome toy!
Micheal, well done on the photography and time spent on explanations. Only one part missing is you just jumped from entering the bucket at 90 and then started at 91. Would help a great deal on how to get out of the bucket to the 91 endpoint. Getting from 90 to 91 is not easy.
Michael, I took my 7 yr old son out tonight and told him that he could have ANYTHING he wanted. We stumbled upon the Perplexus Epic in the first 2 minutes. 15 minutes later my son and I were still sitting in the isle playing.. my wife insisted that we look through the rest of the store before he was allowed to make a decision. Two circuits and 30 minutes later, my sons insistence paid off.
Hours later, he refuses to be interrupted. Thank you from both of us for the hours of fun.
I love your puzzle but the ramp thing at 117 (see 10:10) is no fun at all. I had a lot of frustration, but also fun, mastering every other section of this puzzle, but that one is all frustration and no fun. Too much luck involved. Given how infuriating this thing is, I don't think I will give out anymore as gifts. I'll just go with the standard model.
I just got my best score ever... 123. Yep, I died right at the end. One of the hardest challenges is saved for the very end of this insane puzzle.
HUGE TIP: get a magnet (maybe from the refrigerator) and you can trap and drag the ball to different spots to practice the really hard bits. For instance, you can easily trap the ball at the corner between 116/117, and that way you can quickly practice the ridiculous ramp/jump move at 121, over and over. No need to only use the 33, 56 and 92.
How do you open this? The cone came off and now I can't get further than 80 something.. Please respond I need to finish this and I love this little toy!!!!
I didn't wach the whole vid but I loved the part I saw. I have the original perplexes and I want the epic SOOO BADD I also heard that there is another perplexes for younger kids
I got it for Christmas and I have made it to 77 but i can't get past the forks. My dad and I are having a race to see who can get to 125 first. I am in the lead :)
i just ordered this online after playing with my nieces,8 years old. it is the original version and was a lot of fun. She got it for christmas from my mom. I mastered it in one shot after about 2 hrs. i cant wait to try my new epic. I sure hope you keep making these, bigger and better because I will definitely buy them!!!!
Anybody have suggestions for technique on the drop from 77 to 78? I haven't been able to figure out a reliable way to do this drop. From my point of view, I feel like I'm lucking out if I make it.
cool video... HOWEVER....... at the end of the video, you say you've 'completed epic'... i disagree... you haven't completed epic until you've gone from 1 through 125 without falling... not even one time........ when you've done THAT..... THEN you can say "I'VE COMPLETED EPIC!"... (still a cool video though... i'm still trying to complete epic myself!) :)~
I have a question about side 2 of the teeter tooter; is it supposed to be out of alignment do you know? Or is every Perplexus Epic just manufactured inconsistently? Because on mine, that obstacle seems practically impossible! I miss the scoop every time.. and I always wonder if it's just because the teeter tooter on mine is way more out of alignment than other Epics or something. :(
@mcface1111 if you're talking about the teeter totter, it was designed that way... you need to lean it to the correct side to get it to fall properly...
Hey Michael, I am the one who made the Perplexus epic 1-125 video that you commented on. I sent you some emails that probably said twindz@mac.com but my real email is jayce43z@gmail.com. Please email me soon!
This probably sounds really lame but I can't get passed 5! I get stuck at the curved white thing and I always fall off no matter what I do! Do you have any suggestions because I've tried starting from other practice parts and I'm not bad it's just the curved things with two little bars?
I beat the rookie model 2 days ago, and just beat the original model today after 2 days of trying. I'm gonna start Epic tomorrow! So nervous! But your video really helped me gather some useful tips :)
I...I don't even... I couldn't beat the first dang one! Now there's "Perpleux Epic"? I refuse to accept this! No making things until I fully beat the first one...jeez
Hey Michael! I found myself forgetting to breathe on a couple of occasions whilst watching your video. I have just ordered the perplexus for myself - lets hope I have the patience you have.. Nice one!
@ SuperplexusDotCom, camera suggestions if you want to try them I have a "go hero" camera we use it for all kinds of applications. you can mount it on a tripod, helmet, shoulder or even to your chest. Perhaps they might be in of interest to you for future tutorial videos.
ive gotten to the very last obstacle in ONE GO without stopping or using the checkpoints. 123-124 is such a bitch. the ski jump i can even do pretty consistantly... the very toughest obstacle is pretty much the very last one.
@skresovs Shooting a demo video is tough when playing something that has to be right in front of you from your specific point of view. I filmed my "Perplexus Barriers 30 to 31" demo using my iPhone, held steady against a chair by my daughter, while I looked at the screen and played the game. This time, it was a much longer video, and I was not very skilled at playing Epic yet! So I purchased a helmet cam (Contour HD 1080P) and strapped it onto my bicycle hemet and played for about 4 hours!
@luvcraft Hello Luvcraft, I posted a reply to this, above. Thanks for the question. I intended on grabbing a mirror and showing my ridiculous set-up at the end of the video, but then was in a rush and forgot. I must have looked really absurd filming in the park :-)
