The Storykeeper Bookshop is a video puzzle from the Storybook Forest round of the 2020 MIT Mystery Hunt.

Puzzle Elements[edit | edit source]

Video - The puzzle content consists of a question, a set of blanks, and a short video depicting Penny shelving books and worrying about getting illustrations done.

 

Initials - Penny shelves five books with two-word titles. The initials of each word can be pulled for the phrase COVER FOR ME...

Interaction (Creative Task) - ...which means you're going to have to do an illustration for her. You're given a piece of paper and instructions to depict a specific scene. Doing so provides you the answer in the form of a thank-you note. Different teams were instructed to illustrate different scenes; these illustrations were later displayed at the Character Breakfast event.
