    Well, there aren't that many puzzles and mini-games, so I'd have to go for the Battle Squares too!

    Most annoying? The bricks thing in Chult and the 1st level of the mage tower. I hate puzzles that make no sense, or don't give me a hint at how to solve it. As for the Battlesquares, it got repetetive and boring fast.

    Most annoying one was Battle Squares. Most fun was bricks in Yuan-Ti Temple.

    It's the bricks, painting, or the battle square.

    The "painting" because there is NO background information on the phrases. You just learn a new phrase when you whack Oria. And those other ones just SEEM like the thing to say at the time.

    For the Love of All things Gaming, they could have at least just put some stupid little note in one of the chester drawers that had those phrases written down on them.

    Or something.

    [​IMG] I Have to agree.. They should've given some sort of hint, or at the VERY least put something up in your Journal when you "Learned" One of these new phrases.. Sheesh..

    The game does tell you how to solve the bricks puzzle. You get half of it from a viper's fang and the second half from the cook. I found battle square a little too long (250 enemies!) I also found the phrases in the painting made no sense. Also, the last of the eight chambers was way too hard.
