(( game ))

The game is about lie and truth. I played this game 2 years ago, and i just made up some parts ot the story, because i dont remember it exactly. Anyway, I want you to help our friend Arthur to find Green Village. Many years ago, in the East Europe, before the navigation has been discovered, there was a man, Arthur who was walking to Green Village. Green Village was located near by Orange Village. People in both villages are very similar. Unless people who lived Green Village told the truth for every question. They never lied. On the other hand, people who live Orange Village never told truth, lied all the time, and Arthur knew that .When he was very close the villages, he got confused, because the road became two ways: One to Green Village, other to Orange Village. Luckily, he saw someone was standing around the road. Arthur thought that the guy could help him. The problem was how could Arthur trust the guy because Arthur has no idea which village the guy was from. Arthur has one chance to ask question. Now it is your turn to help him. How or what would you ask the guy to find out which way is for the Green Village. Dont forget the guy you who ask to, could tell lie or truth. Leave your answers as a comment, please. Have fun.

  1. What a great riddle! My brain is too tired for this tonight, though. I'll tackle it tomorrow. Have you heard of the liar's paradox? It's basically the same thing, I think.

  2. OK. I will try to answer although this kind of logic puzzle is not my strength.
    I think the real answer is that there is no question that one could ask if NOTHING can get an Orange Villager to tell the truth. I might try a threat or reward, though. For example, "Would you like to save your mother's life? If you do, show me the way to Green Village." or "Would you like a million dollars because if you show me the way to Green Village, I'll reward you." That's the best I can think of after a long day!

  8. ask the guy, " which way u come from " if the guy is green, he gonna tell u the road to green. if the guy is orange, beacuse he is lying, so he gonna point on green too. i think it is the right answer.
    ahahh, i gonna see u tomorrow.lol

  9. These days, our topic is 'Stress'. You make me stressed. I spent 30 minutes to look your blog because of 'The GAME'. Now, I got an answer.
    -"Is this way to your village?"-
    If he says "Yes", it must be Green Village.
    If he says "No", it must be Orange Village.
    It dosen't matter he tells truth or not.
    .......................... Right?????
