my friend ed sent me a brain twisting game kanina. it’s called “petals around the rose“

if your in for a good mind torture, and have plenty of time in your hands you should try this game.

here’s what they have to say about the game.

the smarter you are, the longer it will take for you to figure it out
it took bill gates 2 and a half hours to figure it out in 1977
solve this challenge, and you become a Potentate of the Rose, qualified to become a member of the Fraternity of Petals Around the Rose
Members have pledged never to divulge the secret of the game to anyone else

Are you up to the challenge?

it took me almost 3 hours, [doesn’t necessarily mean that im as smart as bill gates]
