Maybe the easiest of the Withers & O'Dea games; silly premise, pretty straightforward, no red herrings, few puzzles. One puzzle relies on a tongue-in-cheek anglo-centric language idiom and idea association, but the right verb can be guessed anyway.
"One puzzle relies on ..." Would this be the clover field puzzle? That puzzle had me stumped, I was a youngster at the time and had never heard of the song so even when I discovered the answer I did not understand the reasoning behind that answer.
That's the one. It is totally obscure unless you happen to be familiar with this: http://kristinhall.org/songbook/SeaAndPub/RollMeOverInTheClover.html
