Note: all those who have made it to the top need to revisit for new updates at the peak! The plot thickens!!


WELCOME Steam gifts!! Yes, it's Space Kitty Here!!

NOTE: To solve, you must start with any of the 12 puzzles at the BOTTOM of the pyramid and work upwards

(will continue till Jan 31st!! and half GA still active till Feb 2nd!)

THIS is the first YSAE event on Steam Gifts and we hope it will not be the last!

YSAE- Year Starting Annual Event!! for 2016

This event is one that NO ONE will want to miss. In this event you will be introduced to the Steam Gift Kitty TEAM that make steamgifts run smoothly behind the scenes. We have never come out in the open and met you all but we all felt it was time!

Yes, it's me-- Space Kitty! You are actually reading my words I'm typing to you now. You might think why am I using jeffhowe's SG id. Well, I had a talk with jeffhowe and asked him if I could temporarily use his id during the month of January to host this special event and he kindly agreed.

BUT, realize that I will not be using his id throughout this complete event until the VERY LAST Ga of this puzzle train where I will openly chat with you all and respond to you about whatever you'd like to ask... so that gives you an incentive to solve the complete event and meet me at the very top.

You will not only be meeting the 26 kitties of SG but each one will be introducing one YSAE member! YSAE is a group of SG puzzle creators and crackers that have recently joined together to make sure that puzzles will be here at SG and continue to entertain us and challenge us!

SO HERE it is-- the theme of this years YSAE event is "FAMOUS CRACKERS!!" Start solving at the bottom of the pyramid and work you way up!!

Simple and easy! Have fun and hope to chat with you at the final end!!

P.S. After the introduction of each Kitty, the next GA will allow you to chat with that Kitty. The kitty behind that door will be using Nfreaks id so reply to Nfreaks comment to chat with that Kitty! Notable credit goes to Nfreak doing an excellent job speaking for each kitty! Also he created each Kitties name, picked each picture and came up with beginning kitty quips!

For a moment I got shocked there, cause I did try it on other formulae and it did not work. But nope, that didn't help either in this one.
