open the surstromming

Please open the surstromming, it is a speciality of Sweden and it smells the most in the world...

  1. Great game. Very simple little timewaster. Inspired by the "dismantlement" series but much shorter. Thanks Jay.

  2. I was disappointed. The two puzzles were pretty interesting and I was looking forward to more difficult puzzles but it just ended =(

  6. WALKTHROUGH!

    (If anyone needs it.)

    -The first lock has to do with shapes and the word SURSTROMMING. line up the letters with the letters.

    Spoiler: SMNU

    -The second lock has to do with coordinates. not sure how you figure it out.

    Spoiler: south, West, East, East, North.

    Or just click down, left, right, right, up.

    -Click the fan at the bottom for the game. It gets rid of the smell.

    Well, that's it. Short, sweet, maybe kinda stinky, and to the point.

    ENJOY!

  8. Nice little game. Also thought this would be a little longer.

    Thanks again, Bart.

  9. the fan at the end is kind of cute. don't often get to do anything more once a game is done.

  10. Spoiler:
    Notice that the D in SWEDEN is
    highlighted. When you open up the
    puzzle, there is no yellow in the corner. The Cardinal Directions are
    N, S, W, E ;')

  12. Surströmming - I don't know what part of Sweden you live in. But where I come from (Norrland) the people sure do eat surströmming. Not on a regular basis though. It's more of a once a year thing. Late summer/early fall it's surströmmingspremiär, which means the first cans of the year is ready. A common way to eat it is on thin soft bread (tunnbröd) with almond potato, onion and sour cream. Enjoy! Not me though, since I'm a vegetarian..

  17. Hey got it without help. Yeah rather short but who's complaining.

  18. What the...?

    Okay, that wasn't "short" -- it was practically not even a game. Two little (easy) puzzles then game over. This was kind of like playing 1/5 of an easy Dismantlement. :)
