Can you cross the river?

can you cross the river

This is going to do your head in, but it can be done.

Apparently this is an IQ test given to job applicants in China:

"Everybody has to cross the river".

The following rules apply:

Only 2 persons on the raft at a time

The father can not stay with any of the daughters, without their mother's
presence

The mother can not stay with any of the sons, without their father's
presence

The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member,if The
Policeman is not there

Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft

To start click on the big blue circle on the right.

To move the people click on them.

 To move the raft click on the pole on the opposite side of the river.

Don't Give Up!

did it in less than 5 min....

Well i must be a retard because the only combo i can get across the river is the cop and robber. I try the mom and any combo of the 2 girls and it says no, same with the dad and 2 boys. even tried with the kid and cop but it said no on leaving the kid behind

take cop and robber over first, leave robber and then have cop bring one kid back and take robber back across,.that should help you get started...the robber will then be the last to come back across..

LOL, this is funny. Especially if you read the replies first and didn't know exactly what was going on.

all right. i got it. took me a while but got it. haha
