Treasure be in them waters!

Treasure be in them waters!


Well well well… puzzle me this!

The Pirate Life Treasures series has officially set sail, and our mighty Helm Wheel has been added to the Pixel and Plastic backlog for our supporters. But today, I have a different tale for you, the legend of The Dadidol.

This curious little idol is of ancient design, depicting a father and his heir. In the puzzling trials of fatherhood, a dad might lose his head or his feet for a time. Once reassembled, he is right there, caring for his chubby baby boy.

Thangs Blog Post 1980x1200.pngI kept this puzzle on the simpler side so it is more about fun than frustration. My vision was to hide the pieces around the house, let the kids hunt them down, and then assemble it. Bonus points if you time it like Legends of the Hidden Temple with the Silver Monkey. The name itself came from a chat in our Discord with my good friend Garry, after we noticed how Indiana Jones’ Fertility Idol is a mother with her child. We figured it was only fair for dads to have one too.

For a short time, you can grab the Dadidol early and for free on the Pirate Life account. While you are there, help us climb the leaderboard with a download, a like, and by adding it to a collection.

I would love to see the creative ways you come up with to use the Dadidol. Should we keep making puzzles like this or stick to simple treasures? Hop into the Discord and let me know. You can link your Thangs account under Memberships in your settings, or join directly here → https://discord.fireside.buzz

Every week, we host the 3-Hour Firestarter Challenge. Pick up the weekly theme, then sculpt, design, draw, or create in any medium you like. It is relaxed, creative, and a great way to meet other makers.

That is it for now. Get printin’, upload your makes, and you might win some gift cards.

P.S. The Maker’s League has had a bit of a shake-up. Models are now randomized on the display to give newer makers a fair chance. Even if you do not have a big audience yet, your work can still rise to the top. See you in the Discord. If you guys can get your makes up when I make a blog post by letting me know in the discord. I'll add it to the post. PatenaudePrints got one up so go show some love! -> PatenaudePrints Make of Dadidol

Also, you can check out his models he makes over on PatenaudePrints.

If you guys like these blog post updates, instagram posts, or where ever else we are posting content, let me know, leave a comment. I don't want to waste time I could be making models and games on platforms no one is listening on...
