Almost done it?? I can't find a single Latin word in the fourth puzzle, let alone a whole sentence (I guess it's only fair since I hate Latin with a vengeance ). I found the solution to the second page puzzle but I have no idea whatsoever about the third page despite having seen National Treasure twice
I used your short description as a starter:
Treasure Rebus is an online quest game full of riddles and logic puzzles. To solve them you'll require intuition and the help of Internet: Google maps, online solvers and Wikipedia will prove to be essential allies if you ever hope to reach the ultimate goal (I know, this description sounds a bit bombastic )

According to Google maps it's 1053.63 km instead of 1051...Is there a mistake maybe?

Thanks for the review on the game!
As for the kilometers, I measured this with the Google earth option...I thought this one will be difficult but I see you've made it.
Did you solve the "nine-parts" puzzle?

Google Maps and Google Earth report different values!! Strange, maybe Google Earth doesn't take in account Earth sphericity and calculates the straight distance between two points in space.

I thought the nine-parts puzzle was the one where you need the solution of the four puzzles in the book, so I didn't try to solve it (I only put together the big picture)

I don't know where the difference comes from, but I measured it using a Google Earth tool, I zoomed the two points and measured it in a bee-line. Maybe Google Maps measures the points using routes, but 2 kilometers would be a small detour in this case...
Anyway,I think it's not that crucial...
The puzzles from the book are used after you find the treasure place. When you solve them and find the treasure let me know, please...
