Well, this is just like another version of The Einstein's Riddle, with the houses and stuff.
honestly, if you look at clues 2 & 11, they contradict each other. and clue 13 makes no sense when you see the answer. besides that, it was kinda fun.
I agree with skcornett91, numbers 2 and 11 contradict eachother. This teaser is impossible.
you can do better (but i probobly cant)
I've read the Einstein riddle too.
Did you get the inspiration from it or did you just copy it down here?

Made it up. I messed, but i didnt notice it.
The answer given is wrong on many levels.
Case #1:
According to the answer Jygzyll loves humans and Phyzygwy loves metal. However, from the following clues:
2. The Blympy hates what the Jygzyll loves.
11. The Blympy hates what the Phyzygwy loves.
This would mean that Blympy hates both humans and metal. Unless I missed something in the instructions, each creature should only have one thing to hate.
Case #2:
According to the answer Fymphy loves salt and hate humans. However from the following clues:
4. The Fymphy should be dehydrated.
13. The Fymphy loves an organism that is both an herbivore and a carnivore.
Salt is not an organism that is both an herbivore and a carnivore. And saying Fymphy hates humans is a direct condradiction to clue 13.
I could give more cases, but what would be the point. It's simply a flawed answer. I doubt this puzzle even has an answer.

There are several problems with this teaser, which makes it unsolvable. Another error is clue #13 stating that Fymphy loves the creature that is both a herbivore and a carnivore, yet the given answer states that Fymphy loves salt.
I know, but I dunno how to change it.
hi skoolkid, apparently our bright editors cleared your teaser, so it must be a good one
although ya had me stumped!
