Stalkers RPG Season 5 Questions & Answers

[Neo Emolga]

Thanks for clarifying!
I'm still looking at our items and now I've got more questions!
The corrupted library book-- I'm playing a bit of a spot the difference game with it but I'm scared to submit it for two reasons;
- If I say Nico touched the book because I'm trying to submit and solve the puzzle, do i immediately have to succeed a trap roll? Or does he immediately take 10 and 10 damage?
How strict will you be on it? If i circle two things as one, do i get it wrong and have to spring the trap again to try again? Does this follow the usual rules of submitting via PM, or does it go as part of my action because Nico could take damage?

*looks anxiously at the saved image file in my phone, unsure if it'll make Nico go splat*

VERY good questions. Yeah, this thing is ugly. It's a bit of a challenge to crack.

Submitting the wrong answer means you perform a trap roll for half damage (5 Sanity, 5 Purity). Submitting the right answer means you perform a trap roll for full damage (10 Sanity, 10 Purity) but it solves the puzzle and you get the end key item out of it. Option is you can have someone use Security on it to disarm the trap and not have any of that happen for either right answers or wrong answers. I highly recommend disarming it.

For the "spot the differences" game itself, when it comes down to the correct number of differences, it counts for each individual solitary instance. So as a hint (super obvious hint anyway), each of the Pikachu's bloody eyes are an individual instance, so both eyes together would count as two. Good luck and don't stare at it too long, I saw this creepy thing whenever I closed my eyes the night I made it. XP
