The MSN Conspiracy game

I’m guesing most of you remember the Msn game titled “Can you solve the Kitty Caper mystery?” which was a detective game were you could win prizes by solving the mystery of the Kitty Caper, well if you liked that one and would like to have the chance to win some prizes, then you might just like to try The MSN Conspiracy game:

Conspiracy – can you solve the mystery?

It all begins with a phone call in the dead of night.

What unfolds will challenge the most perceptive of minds. Fortunately, you’ll have the new Windows Live Search at your disposal to help unravel the nefarious plot. Pick up clues, follow the trail and see if you can expose the truth at the heart of the Conspiracy.

Win fantastic prizes

The future of the world is in your hands. Solve the mystery and a grateful world might reward you with a wonderful holiday.

First Prize
week’s holiday in Las Vegas, with a helicopter ride through the Grand Canyon- or a holiday of your choice worth up to £2,500

Second Prize
A week’s holiday scuba diving in the Red Sea, with PADI training (from explorers.co.uk)- or a holiday of your choice worth up to £2,000

Thrid Prize
A brilliant weekend break in London- or a trip of your choice worth up to £350

The game

Your old friend Professor Adam Whitehead says he needs to see you. Urgently.

There’s just one problem: when you get to his house, he has vanished. All you can find is an old puzzle box and some cryptic manuscripts.

The challenge is clear. Can you reveal the sinister trail that leads to the professor?

You’ll have to solve riddles and open the puzzle box to find him and crack the conspiracy. At your disposal is Windows Live Search, which will prove invaluable as you probe more deeply into the mystery.

You’ll need to be smart. You’ll need to be cunning.

Have you got the wits to penetrate to the heart of Conspiracy?

Lure a friend into the Conspiracy!

Ste April 11, 2007 at 2:16 pm

just completed it and a tip for everybody is this!! the ending was as described so many times on the forum as awful. probably no worse than I came to expect it to be, for a freeby and concidering the rest of the none expensive graphics budget what were you all expecting. however I think this is being left open for a second round another game. I now need to conclude that you all need to stop posting questions on this forum now and start using it for the answers you require as this forum has got all of the answers allready posted on it some where so dont be like me posting a question and getting the answer days later after allready figuring it all out just read up above and you’ll find it quicker. IF YOU WANT TO CHEAT AND STARVE YOUR BRAIN that is.!!! This game was much fun bring on the next!!!!!

Its the atomic bomb. The “Manhatten Project” was the prepartion of the bomb, and the test site was the “Jornada del Muerto” or Journey of Death- death Valley.

The answer is “atomic bomb”

I’m so confused, I know the connection is Icarus which is the password, and Haldane is the username, but she just keeps telling me that “icarus sounds like a password” and when I can’t get any further! When I type the Username and Password into the spaces it does nothing!
