Page ordering differences[]
Every page number is now 3 digits, so 5 becomes 005.
Chinese copies shift the pages 4 pages forward since everything starts on page 005 due to a guide.
- Zapped In Space starts with 005-006-007-008-076 instead of 1-2-3-4-72
For the second story they shift it 139-146 pages forward depending on the length of the previous book.
- Hocus-Pocus Horror starts with 147-148-232 instead of 1-2-86
An example:
- 151-258-208-259-164-213-233-225-197-229-175-262-182-186-231-219-221-242-205-160-248 (Shop till you drop dead good ending where the curse is removed)
Poisonous perfume on 164
HA backpack on 175
Baby booties on 186
Silver arrow in 197
Volcano steam on 208
Boss fight w/ Reggie on 219
Chinese copies also provide a guide at the start of the book hinting at certain endings, choosing route 276-283 (130-137 on the English copy) on Hocus-Pocus Horror leads to the bad ending where invisible Ralph attacks you.
Illustration/Puzzle differences[]
Chinese illustrations also change page numbers/puzzles
Chinese Zapped in Space maze now either leads you to 91 or 58 instead of 87 or 54
English copy of It Came From The Internet says you need to find 94 words in the email -> Pg. 94
The Chinese copy instructs you to find 98 characters in the first two paragraphs instead -> Pg. 098
Word searches are still done in English.
