Step in, Detective! The cozy Detective’s Cabin on Orchid Island is the perfect place to unwind and prepare for your investigations. Start each day by warming up your detective skills with engaging brainteasers, sharpening your mind for the day’s adventures. By visiting the cabin, you can relax and have fun while playing brainteasers to earn additional rewards and take a break from the main game and events.

An exciting Block Puzzle brainteaser is waiting for you in the Detective’s Cabin. You'll have a blast exploring new challenges and solving puzzles. Whether you're looking to improve your score from the last round or just curious about the Detective’s Cabin, come on in and give it a try!

Let's get started and make your journey even more exciting!

How do I unlock the Detective’s Cabin?

You can visit the Detective's Cabin after you reach Chapter 3, Scene 3. You will find the Detective's Cabin on Orchid Island by the beach on the right side.

How do I play Block Puzzle?

In Block Puzzle, your objective is to fit differently shaped pieces into a grid. You drag and drop pieces onto the grid to complete full rows or columns anywhere, or 3×3 boxes in the board's marked areas. Whenever you complete a row, column, or box, you score points.

Every puzzle offers three point targets for you to reach, and reaching each target earns you a Skill Token. The game ends when not enough space is left to place a piece, or when you reach the highest point target. Try to reach the highest point target and win the puzzle!

My 3x3 box didn't clear. Why?

Not just any 3x3 formation will score--you must complete a box in certain marked areas of the grid. On the empty game board, you'll see some 3x3 areas that are either lighter or darker. To complete a 3x3 box and score, you specifically need to fill one of these darker or lighter areas on the board with blocks.

How do I score points?

You earn some points by simply placing pieces on the board.

When you complete a line, row, or 3x3 section, you earn additional points. You'll know you’ve scored when the line, row, or 3x3 box vanishes from the board, leaving you more space for placing pieces.

You earn even more points by making multiple or consecutive scoring moves. If you complete multiple rows, columns, or valid 3x3 boxes in one move, you'll score points for a "combo." The more rows, columns, or boxes you complete with the combo, the higher your score. Additionally, when you complete rows, columns, or boxes on consecutive moves, it creates a "streak," and each time you score during the streak, you get extra points.

What happens when I run out of space?

When you can't place any new pieces onto the grid, the round normally ends. You can continue playing by spending Diamonds, which will clear a section in the center of the board, giving you space to place pieces again. This way, you continue your current round and can keep trying to reach the highest point target.

Alternatively, you can replay the puzzle from the beginning. When you replay, you start the new round from 0, but you will earn Skill Tokens based on your highest-scoring round. For example, if you earned two Skill Tokens the first time (by reaching the second point target), but only reach the first point target in your replay, you will still receive a total of two Skill Tokens when you end your puzzle session. Replays come at a cost, and the cost increases with each additional replay.

What are progress rewards and the Puzzle Grand Prize?

As you collect Skill Tokens throughout the week from playing Detective's Cabin brainteasers, progress rewards may be available for you to earn--leading up to the Puzzle Grand Prize.

As you collect more and more Skill Tokens, watch your movement on the progress bar toward progress rewards (represented by a gift-box icon). If you earn enough Skill Tokens, you can win the Puzzle Grand Prize at the end!

What are the requirements to play Block Puzzle?

Once you unlock the Detective's Cabin, a new game of Block Puzzle will be available every day. The first attempt at a new puzzle is free. If you don't reach all three point targets, you can replay the puzzle for a cost. Once you reach all three point targets in a puzzle, you are done for the day.

When you're done in the Detective's Cabin, please enjoy the other activities June's Journey has to offer, and come back for a new game of Block Puzzle the next day. Keep an eye out for a notification bubble above the Detective's Cabin--this will appear when a new puzzle is ready!

When is the next Block Puzzle available?

A new Block Puzzle game is available each day. A notification bubble above the Detective's Cabin will appear when a new puzzle is ready. If you have played the free round of Block Puzzle for the day and want to know exactly when the next puzzle is available, tap the Detective's Cabin; the screen that opens will show a timer counting down to the next puzzle.

What if I miss a day or did not earn all three Skill Tokens?

Once the day ends, you can't return to that day's brainteaser or earn Skill Tokens from it. Instead, you can play the current day's brainteaser. However, if you miss too many Skill Tokens on previous days, you may be unable to earn that week's Puzzle Grand Prize.

If you're unable to earn the Puzzle Grand Prize one week, don't worry! A new week and new rewards are just around the corner. In the meantime, you can still earn rewards for getting three Skill Tokens, and progress rewards might also be available.

Why can’t I play more Block Puzzle?

One brainteaser is all June needs to prepare her mind for the detective work ahead! Once you unlock the Detective's Cabin, one new game of Block Puzzle will be available every day. Once you reach all three point targets, you are done with Block Puzzle for the day. A new Block Puzzle game will be available the next day. In the meantime, you can enjoy the other activities June's Journey offers!
