How do I win the game in the alley?
  • 1 of 12: The little guy seems to win all the time.
  • 2 of 12: Perhaps you could follow him to see how he does it.
  • 3 of 12: He walks over to the other alley and gets the correct answer to the game.
  • 4 of 12: Maybe you need to play to get the correct answer as well.
  • 5 of 12: All you need to do is learn the password so the giant hand will give the answer to you.
  • 6 of 12: Believe it or not, there is a pattern to the answers.
  • 7 of 12: You can figure out the password just from what you see and hear.
  • 8 of 12: More importantly, you can get it only from what you see.
  • 9 of 12: Pay attention to the number of fingers raised in both parts of the question and to the answer.
  • 10 of 12: Read on to the last hint if you can't figure out what the password is.
  • 11 of 12: The answer is always the number of fingers that the hand holds up in the first part of the question.  In other words, if the person says "If this is xxx" and raises 4 fingers, the answer to "what is this?" is always 4, no matter how many fingers he holds up the second time around.
  • 12 of 12: Once you have the password, you can win the game the next time you play. Just use the answer that you get from the man behind the door.
