UPDATE(22/01/2011):
Daily 2nd...? Oh my God, thank you so much for my first award!
UPDATE (21/01/2011):
I'm thinking of removing the scoreboard. First, some people already managed to hack the game and get impossible scores. Second, nobody really seems to manage to reach over 297. When you're playing a game with a scoreboard, you need to be prepared for any score. It's not exciting at all when everyone keeps "reaching the top of the board" with the same score. And third, you can submit an even higher score when playing on Experienced than Master, which is not fair at all...
In a few days, maybe tomorrow, I'll remove the scoreboard and fix some of the problems that people have mentioned.
IMPORTANT:
- In order to unlock the bonus paintings, you must solve the riddles flawlessly. Without any mistakes or hints.
- Please be patient... It'll take some time for the preloader to show up. It's a big file.
- Don't assume that I'm done with the game. I'll keep fixing the glitches and adding more.
- If you are sure you unlocked all the paintings but your painting count isn't 58/58 in the gallery, try going back to the main menu and enter the gallery again.
- In order to unlock the medal "Art historian", you must enter the gallery after having unlocked all the paintings.
- It's currently not possible to submit your rank to the scoreboard, but Mike's working on it.
- The first song after the main menu is "Sands of Saharah" by Wooormy. I think it was removed, and that's why I couldn't credit it.
Wow, I never thought I would finish this, but here it is: Riddles of Renaissance!
The instructions are simple. Read the riddle carefully and try to find out what it's talking about in the painting. Just point and click.
I know it's not a big game, but it took me a considerable amount of time to make it (to be precise; one year, one hour and sixteen minutes). I had to go through a lot, and, well, I learned a lot! In the end, it was well worth the wait.
The main purpose of the save system is for you to store your paintings, since there are over 50 of them. In case you are interested in reading their descriptions.
This game was inspired by the "Truth" riddles in Assassin's Creed 2. The riddles in Batman: Arkham Asylum also played an important role.
If you are having problems, check the "IMPORTANT" part of the commentary. If it's not there, don't be afraid to contact me.
All constructive criticism is appreciated. Feel free to correct me about grammar and spelling too; English isn't my native language.

Creepy
Is it weird that I was actually scared while playing this game?
Yes, it's weird.

Lowest common denominator
Proving a game that is artistic and educational can still be awesome. Very well thought out.

Nice
Great game, however, the hint on riddle 29 (the man holding soil and water/scientific power), doesnt seem to be working. instead, i got a -1 penalty as if i clicked wrong.
Other than that, keep it up.
Thanks for mentioning the bug, I didn't realize it. I'll fix it as soon as possible.
Thank you for the review.

Top Class
This was a refreshing submission. Excellent selection of fine paintings -- I recognized "St. George and the Dragon" from an English Literature class I took last year. The riddles were generally sufficient; I felt that a few were quite witty while a minority of them were too transparent. But, that is all very subjective and certainly not enough to take away from the innovation and originality of the game.
I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for the review.
