River Test: Five Sons


For other river test solutions, please see their respective topics.


Just like the previous walkthrough (River Test: Four Adventurers), I'll be tagging the characters who should ride the boat on each move. Since each of the children are coded from A-E, I'll be using these letters to identify them. And their Father will remain as Father in this case.



  1. Father, B, D
  2. Father
  3. Father, A, E
  4. Father, B, D
  5. Father, C
  6. Father, B, D


River Test: Four Adventurers


For other river test solutions, please see their respective topics.


Walkthrough for River Test: Four Adventurers will be quite different. Since each person as well as the money bag's weights are indicated, I'll just be stating the weight which should be in the boat on every move.



  1. 60, 40
  2. 60
  3. 90
  4. 40
  5. 60, 40
  6. 40
  7. 80, 20
  8. 60
  9. 60, 40


Again, the fewest no. of moves I've made for this riddle is 9 moves. Hope you could have a fewer number and please don't hesitate to share it with us.

After several try, I was able to solve this Japanese puzzle. Since I can't find a solution for this puzzle, I thought of writing one.

Please note that Island 1 refers to the Island where the couples are standing when the game starts. Island 2 is the middle island, and Island 3 is the finish line.

Here's how I was able to complete this puzzle.

1. Take the Japanese couple to Island 3.
2. Bring back the Japanese husband to Island 1.
3. Take the Scottish Couple to Island 2.
4. Return the Scottish husband to Island 1.
5. Take the Japanese husband to Island 2 with the Scottish husband.
6. Japanese husband should return to Island 1.
7. Bring the Irish couple to Island 2.
8. Take the Irish wife and the Scottish wife to Island 3.
9. Return the Scottish wife to Island 2.
10. Let the Irish husband pick-up the Japanese husband in Island 1 and return them to Island 3.
11. Bring the Japanese couple to Island 2.
12. Take the Japanese husband and the Scottish husband to Island 3.
13. Let the Irish wife return the boat in Island 2.
14. Scottish wife and the Japanese wife should be the one to take the boat in Island 3.
15. Irish husband will sail to Island 1.
16. Irish husband and Dannish husband will sail to Island 3.
17. Irish husband will return to Island 2 and pick-up his wife and sail back to Island 3.
18. Danish husband will sail to Island 1 to bring his wife to Island 3.
