Klueless 4 does it again!




Well, after a years' wait, IIM Indore finally released Klueless 4 on the 23rd of October 2008. For those of you who haven't heard about Klueless 4 (surprising if you haven't), it is a wonderful, mind cracking, brain teasing game that is part of IIM Indore's annual management event-IRIS.

Just so that i don't take away any credit from Klueless, it's not just a game. You really need to try it to understand what i am saying! You will not sleep, eat,... and god knows what else, once you start on this game. They made Klueless in 2005, Klueless 2 in 2006, Klueless 3 in 2007 and finally after a long wait (it's the usual one year gap but it feels like ages because that's what Klueless does to you) Klueless 4 was launched.

Klueless since its inception in 2005, has always been a hit! It is a multi level game (usually around 30 levels) with hints that are on the page (images,title,URL,Text in the same color as the background too sometimes) or source code. You need to use the hints, a bit of common sense,Google/Wikipedia and get to the answer to that level. The official klueless blog contains hints and clues on solving levels and you can also post here and get clues to help yourself. Make sure you read the initial instructions page as they contain critical instructions that are always useful. Do not refer to blogs that contain spoilers or answers as that truly "spoils" the spirit of the game.

Warning: Klueless is higly addictive and you can take my word on this - very few people give up on Klueless once they have started. The joy of completing the game is "unaparalleled" just as the Klueless team has put it. Also, if you are one of the lucky people to complete this game early, you will see your name in the Klueless HALL OF FAME on IIMI's website.

You can play Klueless on the following links:

I'm a Klueless fanatic and have completed it each year till date... and then begin's the eternal wait for the next Klueless...

Though many say that the concept was copied from a similar game on the Internet "Notpron" (www.deathball.net/notpron/), i would really say that the Klueless team of IRIS deserves a standing ovation for the kind of game it has put together. All credit goes to their team for the game they designed.
Try Klueless and you will realize what i have been harping about for so long...All the best!!
