In 1987, a seminal work of the puzzle game genre was released: Cliff Johnson's The Fool's Errand. The tale of a Fool seeking his fortune in the land of Tarot, battling against the challenges of warring kingdoms and the manipulation of the High Priestess. It brought the concept of the Meta-Puzzle to the world of computer games, with the solution of each cryptogram, maze, tetramino, jigsaw, word square and so forth contributing to a larger whole. It sported a novel's worth of prose both elegant and confounding, and a silhouetted aesthetic, unique then as now. It was a masterful Alternate Reality Game on a single diskette, any fan of logic and word puzzles owes it to themselves to play it for the price of one shiny "fooling around a bit with the emulator".
Finished? Good. Spoiler: Having emerged victorious in his quest, the stolen fourteen treasures of Tarot in his possession, The Fool set out to return them to their rightful owners. But Cliff was certain that the High Priestess wasn't done with her mischief, and began sketching out plans for a sequel, where the fool would be parted with his gold and, with the help of the player, find it once again. As so often occurs, other projects took his attention, and Johnson became known as a puzzle-master par excellence, developing new kinds of brainteasers and treasure hunts for various clients, including one for David Blaine which boasted a $100,000 prize at the end. But still, Cliff's thoughts returned to The Fool and His Money. In January 2003, he began accepting pre-orders for the long awaited sequel. Fans waited with bated breath. And waited. And waited. Time went on, almost a decade, and projected release date after projected release date passed on the calendar. Those who had invested began to get antsy. After all, if you are trying to convince your audience that your promise of a game is not, in actuality, some kind of elaborate performance art piece, then titling your work as such is not particularly conducive to your cause. But happily, the sayers of nay were proven wrong, and The Fool and His Money has finally gone gold. Look out next week for the pigs flying and Satan getting whacked in the head with a snowball.
It's hard to describe the nature of the game to those who have never played it, since there are so few other works like it. Broadly, though, upon starting the game and choosing a save file, you will be presented with a list of names corresponding to pages in the book of the Fool's journey. Clicking a name will send you to a screen with an incomplete text describing part of the fool's adventure, setting up puzzles of all types to be solved. Using clues in the text and the often-required instructions provided by the [HELP] Button at the bottom of the screen, solve the puzzle, and the rest of the text on the page will be filled in. The more puzzles you solve, the more pages are unlocked. Every page solved also adds a piece to the Moon Map, a jigsaw that shows the path the Fool takes through the countryside as hinted at through the text. Completing the map unlocks the concluding pages and the final battle of wits.
Analysis: It was worth the wait. It was worth all the wait. If you loved The Fool's Errand, you'll love The Fool and His Money, and even if you've never played the original, those among us who fill out Games Magazine's Pencilwise section in ink, will have a lot to like. It is by no means a game that can be rushed through with no effort. To beat this game, you will have to take notes on scrap paper, call over your family member that's great at word square, quit in frustration while cursing Cliff Johnson's name, then immediately re-open the game a second later when the pieces mentally snap into place and you figure that IBNRAGA unscrambles into BARGAIN. It's a tough game, but it's fair. Every puzzle has a logic to it that may be befuddling at first but perfectly obvious in retrospect. Every tiny step you push forward in the plot will make you feel very smart indeed.
There's a nice variety of different kinds of puzzles. Overall, those with the mind of a wordsmith will probably have an advantage, but all parts of your brain will be required to make any headway. A particular stand-out is a type returning from the first game, where the Fool is challenged to a Tarot card game with concealed rules. While your opponent is good, they're nowhere near perfect, and if you can just figure out the rules by observation, you're certain to beat them. There's a certain amount of repetition in the various puzzle types as the game progresses, genres popping up more difficult forms as you get closer to the game's completion. Really, it comes off as a natural feeling progression, though if a puzzle gives you particular trouble early on, then it might cross the line into frustration when it shows up again. (In particular, this reviewer still cannot quite get the hang of the "Press the letter-adding buttons in a certain order, so as to make a final coherent sentence" type, and unfortunately, that seems to be one of Johnson's favorites.)
Aesthetically, the game is a bit of a mixed bag. The black silhouettes combined with evocatively colored backgrounds are nothing short of beautiful, though they lose a lot of their appeal the few times they are animated. It almost seems a little ungrateful to complain that a one-man project with excellent writing, puzzles, and graphics kind of drops the ball on the tweening, but there you have it. Also, the musical cues, while jazzy and interesting, seemed a little out of place for the pseudo-medievalism of the story, and was often distracting during play (though this may be a personal opinion).
Quibbles with window-dressing aside, The Fool and His Money is a worthy successor, and, maybe the best puzzle game of 2012. Even after all this, Johnson has still dropped hints about the possibility of completing a trilogy with "The Fools Paradise". From current data, we can extrapolate that we should be seeing it sometime around the fall of 2037. Well, The Fool and His Money lived up to the hype, and it contains a good twenty-five years of challenge that every sort of fool should rush in to immediately.

Puzzle 7: Quentin
Okay this is a tricky one. There are six coins floating above you. Each one has two faces. Click two coins to reveal their opposite sides. If you then click two coins that reveal the same match of faces again, those two will vanish. The goal is to remove all the coins.
Since they're magic coins, they'll switch faces on you. But The Fool knows where they're going! Notice that every time you click on a matching pair, the Fool's head will turn left or right. That shows where the other pair are!
In other words, click on a matching pair. Now you must find them behind two of the other four unclicked coins. If The Fool's head is facing left, you'll find the pair by clicking the two coins, farthest to the left, that have not been clicked. If the Fool's head is facing right, you'll find the pair by clicking the two coins, farthest to the right, that have not yet been clicked. The coin faces will vanish from the pool, so repeat until all the coins are gone!

Puzzle 17: Wallop
Cutthroat Tarot! Taking turns, The Fool and The Hook will swap one card from their three card hand with a card from either the pool at the bottom, or one of their opponent's cards. A card taken from you by an opponent cannot be immediately swapped back. Once The Fool or The Hook has completed a Triple in their hand, points are awarded and a new hand is dealt. The goal is to get to 777 points.
This is a game of straights. Get in your hand a string of three cards in order from Queen, Knight, Page, Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, Ace, and you'll score big. No wrap-arounds and, apart from the King of Swords with a Queen and a Knight, no King will be a part of a straight.
If you have the highest card for your straight in hand, you can substitute the lower cards as follows:
Queen: High Priestess
Knight: Devil
Page: Moon
Ten: Death
Nine: Tower
Eight: Hanged Man
Seven: Hermit
Six: Fool
Five: Judgment
Four: Wheel of Fortune
Three: Star
Two: Hierophant
Ace: World

Fool, Wheel of Fortune, Any Ship - Prospect (55 Points)
High Priestess, Hermit, Any Ship - Portent (47 Points)
Pirate King, Star, Any Ship - Pillage (39 Points)
Isis, Horus, Any Ship - Plunder (31 Points)

Puzzle 34: Wentworth
Remedial Tarot! Another hidden rule card puzzle. This time the game is based around the main suits of Herb Cards and Tarot Cards. The goal is 888 points. You and your opponent will take turns either picking a card to form a couplets, or moving the columns that determine what cards each player can take. You can only select a card if it is in the right two columns (with a couplet needing one from each), and your opponent can only pick from the left two columns (with a couplet requiring one from each). Therefore the goal is to create a high scoring couplet, while also preventing your opponent from scoring at all.
Both the Tarot Cards and the Herb Cards have a secret "rank" which determines their scoring. Making a couplet of a Tarot Card with a Herb card of the same rank grants you a Boon and big points. A couplet with two herbs of adjancent rank (like a straight) is a Balm and scores medium points. A couplet with two Tarot cards of adjacent rank is a Bane and scores small points.
A list of Herb Ranking and Scores. Boon refers to the amount of points scored for a couplet with an equally ranking Tarot card. Balm refers to the amount of points scored for a couplet with the Herb Card directly below it in rank. Ranks do not wrap around.

There are seven different pictures of herbs being shown. Each herb represents one letter B-D-E-G-N-R-U. Once you figure out what herb represents each letter, you will use them to spell out twenty-five 3-letter words.

BED, BEE, BEG, BUD, BUG, BUN, DEN, DUB, DUD, DUE, DUG, EBB, EGG, END, ERR, GNU, GUN, NUB, NUN, RED, RUB, RUE, RUG, RUN, URN

Puzzle 54: Weir
Drunken Tarot! This game's gimmick is that the rules are constantly changing. Notice the changing banner of text over the Cloaked Woman and The Fool playing the game. This will let you know what rules are in play. In general, however, you and the Cloaked Woman will take turns picking cards to add to your column. What card is on top, and what card is on the bottom will make a difference depending on the rules, but switching the cards currently in your hand is a free move. The first to 999 points wins.
Note the four suits of cards: The Standard Cups (Example: Five of Cups), The Reverse Cups (Example: Cups of Five), The Standard Arcana (Example: High Priestess), and the Reverse Arcana (Example: Priestess High).
The three parts of the banner that determines the rules are as follows:
The Elixer:/ There are seven elixers in play: CALM, HEAL, RELAX, RELIEF, REPOSE, REST, SOOTHE. When a certain elixer is in play, if you are able to place that elixer card in your hand above its special Arcana card, you will score big. Put it on the bottom of your hand, or mismatch it with the wrong card, though and you're Poisoned, and lose 99 points! A full list of elixers and pairings are below.
The Trick: The middle part will say ASCEND, DESCEND, or MIRROR. This tells you what standard hands you can turn in for points.
ASCEND means you will score if the card on the bottom of your hand is one rank higher than the one on top.
DESCEND means you will score if the card on the bottom of your hand is one rank lower than the one on top.
In both cases, you will score more points if both cards belong to either the Standard or Reverse suit, though matching a Standard with a Reverse card of the proper rank (and vice versa) will still gain you points. Unlike in other games, the Arcana and the Cups cards cannot be matched.
MIRROR means you will score if your hand has both a card and its reversed equivilant. (Example: Queen of Cups paired with Cup of Queens, The Hanged Man paired with Man Hanged The)
Scoring: The last part of the banner will say CUPS TO ARCANA, ARCANA TO CUPS or ALL. The first word of the phrase tells you whether Cups pairs or Arcana pairs are worth more, depending on their rank. If it says ALL, then both kinds will score the more
The Trick and Scoring will change whenever the current Elixer is used in a pair and replaced.
Elixers and their Arcana Pairing:
CALM - High Priestess OR Priestess High
HEAL - The Prince OR Prince The
RELAX - The Hermit OR Hermit The
RELIEF - Book of Thoth OR Thoth of Book
REPOSE - The Fool OR Fool The
REST - The Hanged Man OR Man Hanged The
SOOTHE - The Star OR Star The
Arcana Cards Ranking
7 - Book of Thoth - Thoth of Book

5 - High Priestess - Priestess High

3 - The Hermit - Hermit The
2 - The Hanged Man - Man Hanged The
1 - The Fool - Fool The
Cups Cards Ranking
14- King of Cups - Cups of King
13- Queen of Cups - Cups of Queen
12- Knight of Cups - Cups of Knight
11- Page of Cups - Cups of Page
10- Ten of Cups - Cups of Ten
9 - Nine of Cups - Cups of Nine

Since the rules change so often, quite a bit of this game is indeed luck-based, and any scores we could give would probably be obselete by the next round. Just try to score on every hand or, if not possible, prevent your opponent from scoring, and you'll win soon enough!

This is a sliding puzzle where you have 48 square sections of tarot card that you must arrange into four full versions in their proper frames. The arrows on the top, bottom and sides of each frame move the pieces. Once a card is complete, the arrows around it disappear. The orange arrows only cycle pieces through one card, and the yellow arrows cycle pieces through two cards, in the direction the arrow points. It's best to start with the Ace of Pentacles, the most recognizable card, building it up from top to bottom. This will change the arrows on the Ace of Cups, making it easier to complete. From there you can build from the sun on the back of the Ace of Swords, leaving you with the Ace of Wands.
The finished cards will look like this:

Puzzle 70: Wickliff
Kingdom Tarot! This time the deck features all four suits (Cups, Pentacles, Swords, Wands), and eight total Pirate and Egyptian wild cards! And the help text is surprisingly useful! As it says, taking turns, each player swaps a card from their hands and tries to build a Trio Linneage. In other words, you're attempting to build a straight flush of three cards from a single suit. The ranks are as follows: Ace, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Page, Knight, Queen, King, Ace. Note that Aces can act as high or low, but "King, Ace, Two" will not be valid. The goal is 1111 points.
The Egypt and Pirate cards (Horus - Father, Thoth - Moon, Isis - Mother, Ra - Sun, King of Pirates, The Errant, The Paradist, and The Monet) act as wild cards. They can take the place of any card in a straight, but one will half the points you'd get, and two will half it again. However, since, unlike in the other Tarot games, the cards of your opponent won't be reshuffled when you score, you need to balance scoring at every opportunity, but not using so many wild cards that you can't catch up.
Pentacle Hands score the most (~250-200 Points), then Cups (~200-150), Wands (~150-100), and Swords the least (~100-50). While obviously you should shoot for the higher scoring suits, those wild cards will make a difference! Good luck!

When all seven window puzzles are solved, the puzzle menu screen will change. In particular the Eye of Ra will begin to blink red, and you must click it to start the next puzzle.

Still, those letters only get us part of the way there. Remember how there were three letters left over in each of the window puzzles? Now's the time that they'll come in handy! If you recall, they were URT OCE EPM IDN BMU ILE and SFE. Or, if we reverse each group:
"TRUE COMPENDIUM BELIEFS"
Gateway Puzzle 3 - Part 2
So, we've got D O W N F L O O R, and we're looking for a TRUE COMPENDIUM BELIEFS. Or, if you will, a compendium of true believers. And if we look down and to the left on the puzzle menu, why there appears to be a COMPENDIUM button. But that's just an acknowledgement screen! What sort of mad genius would put a puzzle there? Well, the Cliff Johnson kind of mad genius. Click on COMPENDIUM and pause for a moment to thank all those who supported the game through its darkest hours.
Done? All right. Now, if you recall the words of the Prince, he said that Two Words would seal The Fool's fate. And luckily for the Prince, here on the compendium screen, The Fool is about to take a walk into a river! If you start typing any of the D O W N F L O O R letters, they'll start flying off into the distance with the other true believers. What we need now is to use those letters to form two words that would solve the Prince's problem. Now, you can make a lot of word pairs with D O W N F L O O R, but the only one right for the occasion is
DROWN FOOL
, so type it in, and the fourth set of window puzzles will be unlocked.

Now the moon map can be completed!
Posted by: Tricky | November 19, 2012 3:59 PM
The Fool and His Money Walkthrough Part 3
Moon Map Puzzles
Constructing The Moon Map
All right. Now we can finally begin work on constructing the Moon Map. The first step, of course, is to click all the starred pieces on the map to reveal their contents. Done that? Okay. Like the Help screen says, we're looking to create a single, circuitous path with no pieces left over.
The key to constructing the Moon Map is heeding the advice of the N's: NEEDHAM, NORFOLK, NAIRE, and NISBETT.
Needham told you AFTER ONE, ROW SECOND, THEN COLUMN. Look at all the pieces of the Moon Map that have numbers on them. It looks like the first number is always 1, the second number is always 1-7, and the last two numbers are always 0-11. In other words, what Needham is telling you is that, after the initial "1", the second number will tell you what row the piece should be in, and the last two numbers tell you what column. Just like that, a third of the map can be put into place!
Norfolk told you UNPROFITABLE APPEARS IN PAIRS. Have you noticed those gray letters hanging out above some of the houses? It's no coincidence that those letters are all in the word UNPROFITABLE, and that six of them are on the right of their piece, and six of them is on the left. In other words, "UN" "PR" "OF" "IT" "AB" and "LE" are formed by adjacent pieces! Keeping the pieces with coordinates where they are, you should be able to fill in quite a bit more of the path.
By this time you should start to notice that all houses of the same color form a contigeous neighborhood. Though the blue houses are a little unwieldly...
Naire told you that STREETS WHISPER SEVENTEEN FROM THE SEA. Looking on the streets, we see duos of orange letters. 34 duos in fact, making seventeen pairs. But which duo is paired with which? Well, for that, we look to the sea. Remember Buckbee the pirate? He had us make seventeen four letter words. That's right! Those seventeen words (ALLY - LYRE - REAP - APEX - EXAM - AMID - IDLE - LEAK - AKIN - INTO - TOUR - URGE - GEAR - AREA - EACH - CHOP - OPAL) are formed by pairs of orange letters on the path!
Finally, Nisbett told you that OVERCOMMERCIALIZATION MEANDERS CLOCKWISE. This tidbit of knowledge refers to the light purple houses in the upper left. Each of them has a dark purple letter on them. Starting from the 1206 house with an O, you can spell out the word OVERCOMMERCIALIZATION with the houses in a path that goes up, then right, then down, then around clockwise in a spiral. This path won't follow the yellow street, but it should help fill in the blanks you have left!
The Completed Moon Map: Screenshot
Moon Map Puzzles - General
Now that the Moon Map has been completed, Buckbee the pirate will present you with an acrostic challenge to put together. However, his clues are so obtuse, that you have to figure that the map has not yet revealed all of his secrets. And it hasn't. Click on the map, and you'll see that where once there were coordinates and pairs, nearly every square of the board has had giant gray letters added to it!
When clicked on, each kind of letter will present you with a certain type of puzzle, as explained below; however, one thing is common to most of them. Remember how, in the main story, the last line of each page would be a strange little phrase? Like, for instance, PAYNE ended with "Montes Cut Off His Nose". Well, those little bits are key, and by following their instructions to start with a word, then remove certain letters, you'll often have the first step of the puzzles.
For instance, in the "Montes Cut Off His Nose" case, Take MONTES subtract NOSE and that leaves you with MT. You'll see how that fits in when we get to those puzzles, but for now, let's go in alphabetical order. As you solve each letter, you'll be given a name to put in Buckbee's puzzle, seventeen in all. He'll always be chilling out by that brown house in the center of the bottom row.
Moon Map Puzzles - A
Start by clicking the A next to the Blue House on the left of the top row. Seems he's willing to pay for an ARGYLE word. So we check that page in the story, and find that "Mogate Left The Team" : MOGATE - TEAM = OG. Return to the house on the Moon Map, and type in OG. Now that we have ARGYLEOG, we just need to unscramble that to give him a word:
GARGOYLE
Click at the bottom of the screen where it says "Argyle of Wands Reclaims His Name". This will send you to a word construction puzzle, where you must use eight of the ten floating letters to make a word. In Argyle's case the word is
PUSHCART, which leaves you with ND.
Now, click the A next to the light purple house on the right of the third row. Seems he's willing to pay for an ALDRIDGE word. Check that page in the story to find that "Cathryn hurled her tray, yet Driden never died": CATHRYN - TRAY = CHN and DRIDEN - DIED = RN. Return to the house on the Moon Map and type in CHNRN. Now we have ALDRIDGECHNRN, and we unscramble that to find
GRANDCHILDREN
Click at the bottom of the screen where it says "Aldridge of Pentacles Reclaims His Name". This will send you to a word construction puzzle, where you must use eight of the ten floating letters to make a word. In Aldridge's case the word is
BONEYARD which leaves you with PH.
Now, let's click the A on the right of the sixth row. She's willing to pay for an AGAR word. The AGAR page tells us that "Davies retired her dais": DAVIES - DAIS = VE. Return to the house on the Moon Map and type VE in. Now we have AGARVE, and we unscramble that to find
RAVAGE
Click at the bottom of the screen where it says "Agar of Swords Reclaims Her Name". This will send you to a word construction puzzle, where you must use eight of the ten floating letters to make a word. In Agar's case the word is
SLIPKNOT, which leaves you with RA
Finally, click the A by the green house on the left of the bottom row. Huh. She just has AUGUS to work with, but that has to mean the AUGUSTINE page. Perhaps we'll need to find two words? Checking that out, we find that "Bonmite forfeits ten. Caddaham hates ham.": BONMITE - TEN = BOMI and CADDAHAM - HAM = CADDA. Return to the house on the Moon Map and type BOMI. Now unscramble AUGUSBOMI to find
AMBIGUOUS
Huh. Now she wants a TINE word. Type in CADDA to form TINECADDA. Now unscramble that to find
CANDIDATE
Click at the bottom of the screen where it says "Augustine Reclaims Her Name". This will send you to a word construction puzzle, where you must use eight of the ten floating letters to make a word. In Augustine's case the word is
MISJUDGE leaving you with OL
Now you have eight leftover letters: ND PH RA OL. Unscramble them to get
RANDOLPH
Make a note of that.
Moon Map Puzzles - C
Start by clicking the light purple C house in the top left corner of the Moon Map. Seems like she's willing to pay big bucks for a CUTTING word. Go and check out that page from the puzzle menu.

ANCIENT
Click at the bottom of the screen where it says "Caine of Swords reclaims her name." Here you will have to unscramble two eight-letter words, by clicking the fighting men on both the left and right:
NIGHTMARE and CONFIDENT
Now click the brown C house in the middle of the fourth row. She wants a CONKLIN word. Go check the Conklin page in the puzzle menu. "Bridgette disregarded her debt": BRIDGETTE - DEBT = RIGTE. Go back to the house on the Moon Map and type in RIGTE. Now you have CONKLINRIGTE. Unscramble that to form

FEEBLEMINDEDLY? And note that the fourth and thirteenth and eleventh letters of that word are B and L and E
Now click the green M house in the middle of the fourth row. Another scrambled sentence, and another seven letter word to find click "She returns to the Kingdom of the Swords" at the bottom of the map, and we will be taken to the Moxley page.

PREMATURE
This reveals the sentence: From those which pose a premature presumption, select the one, and only one, that is common to all three. Looks like we need to check out the Payne, Pringle and Percy pages, and click the one unique element that is common to all three.

Moon Map Puzzles - Buckbee
Buckee the pirate hangs out in the center of the bottom row of the moon map. As you complete all the other puzzles, you can click there to bring up his acrostic and fill in names.
There are seventeen names to fill in on this acrostic. You will find the names by completing the letter puzzles of the moon map, then placing them in the proper order according to the given clues. The appropriate moon map puzzles must be completed, or else Buckbee will not accept the names.
Here is an image of the proper word placements: Screenshot
Explanations for each, in order, left to right:
"She is British, adverbially": Remember all the adverbs of the M puzzles? They gave us BENTLEY, and, if you get what I'm driving at, that's quite a British name!
"He is Greek from floating fonts": The V puzzles had us typing out floating letters. That road led us to RHODES
"He is Dutch, the daydreamer": All the P pages and puzzles featured a daydream. They gave us the word GROESBECK, and that guy loves going Dutch!
"He is Irish and heeds only half": The O puzzles left us with a string of letters: R G T T E E G N E R E N. I'm doubly sure it's no coincidence that each of them appears an even number of times: RR EE GG EE NN TT. If we halve every occurrence of a letter and unscramble, we get REGENT
"He is British and wagers his wages": The W puzzles of card games all involved wagering wages. They lead us to KENNICOTT
"She is neither Colburn nor Barclay": At the end of the H series of puzzles, we cycled through several screens trying to get the right name. Two possibilities, Colburn and Barclay, were red herrings, meaning that we are left with ASHFORD
"She is Scottish, signifying Junction": All the J puzzles had those floating crosswords to deal with, filled with all sorts of junctions. From there we got the name SCOTT.
"He is British, literally" A literary British guy? What was that name we got from the L puzzles! Ah yes, ELLIOTT! Of course, his name had only the one T, but we'll let it slide.
"He is Welsh and counts his coins": That Q puzzle had quite a bit of coin counting. Or flipping at any rate. From there we got the name COFFIN, dead to rights.
"He is German and does his bidding": The auctioneers of the A puzzles know that it's RANDOLPH
"She is Irish, meaning monogram": Well, those S puzzles had us construct those giant floating monograms. From there we got the sentence "Her whole is mixed HALF and TREY". Taking HALFTREY and unscrambling it gives us FLAHERTY, Irish all the way!
"He is Saxon and Mostly Herbal": Those R puzzles had us memorizing all sorts of herbs! From them, we got BARTON.
"They are Scottish and quote fools": Those C puzzle guys sure love their quotes about fools, right? And the C puzzles gave us the world DALRYMPLE, a true Scotsman indeed!
"He is German and nearly stained": Those P puzzles sure pained us with all that stained glass clicking. They led us to the name ULRICH, though, and that goes here.
"He is Saxon and takes one step backwards": The G puzzles were all about stepping all over the screen. They left us with the letters FZ SL FM CF. Move each of those letters one step back in the alphabet, and you get EY RK EL BE. A little re-arranging gives us the Saxony beast of a name: BERKELEY
"She is Gaelic, derived from knowledge": It's DUNCAN, and, well, besides the fact that it's the only one that fits, I can't really say I'm able to derive the logic. After all, it seemed like the N puzzles required just as much knowledge as everything else...
"She is British, from the harvest": We harvested casabas, bananas and papayas in that Y puzzle. Fruitfully, it led us to the name TRACY.
Every time you enter a name, a sound will play and the related letter will disappear from the map.

THE GIFT OF PROPHECY

The Fool and His Money Walkthrough - Part 4
The Finale
The Seven Cups
Once you complete Buckbee's acrostic, you will be taken automatically to the screen of seven cups. If you click away, you can also access it by clicking the Moon in the puzzle menu.
You must select each vertical pair of key and elixir. Once you have done so, the cup at the top of the screen will be filled. Once this occurs, you have unlocked the final puzzle!
The Finale Awaits
Before the fool can abscond with his gold, he needs to solve one final puzzle and drive away the pirate spirits which have dogged him so. The puzzle is structured like the N puzzles we've seen previously, where clicking each of the spirits will add letters to the front and back of a phrase. However, the spirits can each be clicked more than one time and you'll need to make seventeen clicks in all. What spirit adds what letter is randomized in each game, so some note-taking will be required
Here is the order the letters should be added.
Click the spirit that adds the single letter N to start.
Click the spirit that adds EY to the end.
Click the spirit that adds MO to the front.
Click the spirit that adds AR to the end.
Click the spirit that adds IS to the front.
Click the spirit that adds ES to the end.
Click the spirit that adds DH to the front.
Click the spirit that adds OO to the end.
Click the spirit that adds AN to the front.
Click the spirit that adds OL to the front.
Click the spirit that adds NP to the end.
Click the spirit that adds FO to the front.
Click the spirit that adds AR to the end.
Click the spirit that adds TE to the end.
Click the spirit that adds HE to the front.
Click the spirit that adds the single letter T at the front.
Click the spirit that adds the single letter D to the end.
This leaves you with the entirely apt sentence
THE FOOL AND HIS MONEY ARE SOON PARTED
And so they will. But that alone does not an unhappy ending make!
One Last Thing...
The Fool was walking through an unfamiliar land without benefit of map or guide. The obstacles in his path were minimal, and The Fool had always though "forward" to be the only direction ever needed, regardless of any review or discussion.
Upon his path, he came across a man casually leaning against an apple tree, a book of various puzzles in one hand, a pencil in the other.
"Who are you?" inquired The Fool.
"Me?" replied the man. "I thought you would have guessed. I, young fool, am games!"
The Fool was somewhat puzzled by the man's statement. A single claiming to be a plural seemed inappropriate on its face, be it grammatically or philosophically. He told the man as such.
"I see no reason why that should be the case. One man in his time may play many parts, and often at the same time too. Are you yourself not currently both a fool and The Fool?"
The Fool was about to argue that there were two levels on which he'd argue non-equivalence, but before he could, the man waved his pencil and the air filled with a multitude of letters:
DTYGR FXS YPP DESK UKPQKHKEZ! Q TXIK DTYD DTQZ JSQNK TYZ UKKG XB TKPI. YGN EKOKOUKE: DTK BQEZD IEQGMQIPK QZ DTYD FXS OSZD GXD BXXP FXSEZKPB, YGN DTYD FXS YEK DTK KYZQKZD IKEZXG DX BXXP!
The man walked away, dancing a happy JiG and whistling "Yardstick is not sad."
