At the time the tigers are released you throw the rifle pieces opposite (in the room) of where they enter and they generally will fetch as attracted to the movement. Then quickly get away and exit through their entrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 itachi-san Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 LOLZ at LIS' answer stuff the rifle parts in their mouths when they try to bite you. Then duck and roll between their legs and throw a rock at the door switch when they are approaching again. The door will crash down on their heads killing them. Then the tiger keeper will come out and cry over their bodies and Jabba will let you out of the room only to be placed in another escapable execution scenario.

Flip the instruction booklet to the English section (or any of your choice that you can read, for me, it's English) and get to building. Pray that the tigers can speak my language so I can tell them to spare my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some instructions require a four year old - pass on that too! Are they a protected species... it's a paradox! Kill and be killed or don't kill and be killed Is there a death sentance for this?

0 Guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Bengal Tigers wouldn't usually have both words capitalized. I think that's a clue that these are not ferocious felines, but rather two underfed members of the Indian cricket team the Royal Bengal Tigers. When they come in in 20 minutes, head out with them to a nice dinner of Tandori chicken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 5 more possible answers (although I like the cricket team answer the best): #1) Since Shwahii is not a real language, and I'll assume that ISN'T a typo for Swahili, then we're not in the real world. I use my Final Fantasy White Mage magical powers to escape the room using an "Exit" spell. #2) Ask the person in the room who DOES read Shwahii to put the rifle together for you. Then, shoot the tigers. #3) While there is a dissassembled rifle in the room, you forgot to mention the other 136 ASSEMBLED rifles in the room. Just use one of those. (By the way, there is NO mention of ammunition. Wouldn't it be funny if you found a way to assemble the rifle in 19 minutes, get ready for the tigers, and then right before the doors opened you rememberd, "Hey! What about bullets?!") #4) While there is a dissassembled rifle in the room, you forgot to mention the 5,314 pounds of raw meat that's there also. Wait for the tigers to eat the meat, and head on out. #5) Sing "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor real REAL loud. You might not live, but your statement about surviving, even if you sing off key, is good enough to solve this puzzle. For bonus points, sing the version done by the band Cake.

0 akaslickster Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 If you have any lighting and you know where the bengals will come out ,, you just take the barrel piece of the rifle and whack them on top of the head really hard as they enter the room. That should give you time to murder them completely. Then you survive like a cannibal and eat them raw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 itachi-san Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 a painful melee weapon? Painful to 2 tigers with claws, fangs and massive weight and power differential? No way. Even if you tried to poke their eyes out, you'd only get 1 eye before dying most likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 2 other off-the-wall possibilities, although I still think these are hungry cricket players coming at you... The "rifle" is disassembled. Well, reassable R-I-F-L-E into F-L-I-E-R. Take your flier, and fly up in the air. If you can fly out of the room, great, but if not, get up high to get away from the tigers. Or, since the rifle is disassembled, it has lots of parts. Take all the parts into one pile, a whole. Take the hole, put it in the wall/floor, and escape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
