Volvo's 'The Hunt' - Pirates of the Caribbean


Submitted by thankeeka on June 16, 2006 - 1:04pm. General News

We're big fans of Pirates of the Caribbean here at Killer Betties (especially Rosethorn...ask her how many times she has seen the original). We also can't wait for the sequel, Dead Man's Chest to be released, but until then Volvo has a contest to tie-in with the movie. Volvo has actually buried a Volvo XC90 somewhere in the world, and you can be the lucky one who discovers the treasure. You'll need a map with a code from a local Volvo dealer, but after that it all comes down to deciphering the puzzles. Do you have what it takes to win this Pirates of the Caribbean treasure?

The map is on the website.


The map is on the website. The code is what you need to start the game on the website. The code given here worked but I wonder if each person needs a unique code to qualify.

St. Helena is giving me


St. Helena is giving me trouble tool. The 7 at the top of the ladder means something, but I've tried counting every 7th step and gotten nothing usable. Any ideas?

How far into the hunt are


How far into the hunt are you at this St. Helena part? I just started and already I am lost. I rolled the dice and got the first answer correct it said, although I was basically just guessing the three words I found on the map. After getting the first answer right it seems to go nowhere and I have no idea what to do next.

As you climb the ladder the


As you climb the ladder the rungs have numbers on them. When you type in the coordinates to the next destination you start over if you are wrong. As you clinb the ladder again certain rungs have the same numbers on them. These same numbers apear on the same rungs every time you start over. I am still stuck but I thought these numbers must have something to do with the solution.

Rosethorn, your posts have


Rosethorn, your posts have helped me so much on BizFantast, I hope this helps you: if you start at the bottom rung, it has -> 35. So, go to rung 35. Now, there are two more numbers (or a letter and a number) separated by a "-". One is a piece of the coordinate, the other is the next rung you need to go to. It's a lot of work, but should give you the answer. Good luck!

tHIS island is where


tHIS island is where Robinson Crusoe was stranded for 35 years..........35.....get it?
The marks in the cave are for 4 years and 2 months he spent in there.
Go to the bottom of the rungs and count up 35 steps, take the first numbers and that is the first number on the coordinates............the last 2 numbers on that step is the number on the rung that you want to go to next. Take the first number that is the next number in the coord. The last number is the number on the next rung you want to go to. Do the same thing....Good luck the first coordinate is............1706s....you can find all the answers here on the first couple of pages.....I am not doing this to win anything I just hope this helps you play the game. I was getting frustrated also until I got the help I needed on HERE...............

And just one more general


And just one more general comment...if any of us are playing for the prize and not just for fun, apparently Volvo is dead serious about the necessity of having an original copy of the map with a dealership stamp on it. There are also a lot of other eligibility rules. I'm playing for fun, but I'd hate to see anyone have the best times and not be eligible at the last minute, so please, folks, make sure you check if you are serious about this! :)

For some reason Vovle NEVER


For some reason Vovle NEVER sent me the 2nd clue. Not that I can even get past the first one, but they have now sent me Clue 3 and 4. I wrote the email the clues come from but no one replied. Does ANYONE happen to have the 2nd clue so I can work on that one? Thanks much!

Okay, here's is what


Okay, here's is what happened to me, maybe this will help someone else. On the first clue I rolled the twelve, then got ahead of myself. I found a word on the map and entered it as the solution and the card said it was right, but then I got nowhere from that point.

The word I entered is apparently the right answer at a later point in the game, but not to the first puzzle. So if you ever enter a word that it says is correct, but nothing happens keep that word in mind for later on.

I have now found the correct answer to the first clue and moved on.

***WARNING ANSWER


***WARNING ANSWER REVEALED***

I hate to give straight answers to things on here because some people might be upset to see them instead of working it out for themselves.

Click on the wine barrel that lets you. It happens to be the year that was on the bottle you dug up in roman numerals. Then pay very close attention to what the guy says about people sailing to there. Within his speech are numbers and directions that you need.

There are a couple more stops in between Madiera and St. Marys.

Has anyone solved the riddle that is supposed to help with St. Mary's?
