Inside Herbert’s Lair! EPF - Prepare for Danger!
Inside Herbert’s Lair!
Undercover from Dot. By Dot the Disguise Gal — Listen up, everyone! I snuck into Herbert’s base and recorded a conversation between that villain and his crab. Now we know what he’s been doing with those coins! The Bear Truth!
Taken from agent Dot’s recording:
Herbert: Klutzy, throw another coin in! It’s gotta stay nice and warm.
Klutzy: Click click, click.
Herbert: Not warm enough! I finally have a place where I can relax and enjoy a nice quiet game.
Klutzy: Clickety click click!
Herbert: Well you should have thought of that before you stole a COIN-operated dial for the furnace! Honestly, if it wasn’t for that,I wouldn’t even have to use my mind control device on the puffles.
Klutzy: Clickety clickety...
Herbert: Of course we don’t have enough yet! I want to have be nice and toasty for the rest of my life! MWAHAHAHA!
Klutzy: Click!
Herbert: What did you just do? Don’t step there! You’re going to set off that trap!
That was all I was able to record before I made a stealthy escape. Good luck to all those penguins rescuing puffles. Until we can put an end to his mind control for good, you’re our best bet.
EPF - Prepare for Danger!
Gary hard at work on a solution to puffle mind control.
By Gary the Gadget Guy — Greetings! The hunt for Herbert is afoot. I’ve been analyzing the brain boxes that you have removed, and I am close to cracking Herbert’s security systems. We’ve already managed to sneak Dot inside once. But to permanently shut down his broadcast device, we’ll need full access. I’m prototyping a new gadget that will allow an agent to infiltrate Herbert’s base. I don’t envy the agent that has to jump into the belly of that beast, but it’s the only way!Once inside, they can use the color chips to disrupt the mind control signal and free all the puffles. That’ll be the end of his heinous invention!

What can I do to help the rescue effort? – Ike Air
Well, the first thing to do is try to rescue a puffle. There are more appearing every day, and all of them desperately need your help. But if you’ve already saved them from mind control, there is still much to be done. Recruits at the Boot Camp could always use a pizza to keep their strength up, or a nice cup of tea to stay warm. It’s dangerous out there in the wilderness. If you are a tour guide, give tours to the new recruits and let them know where to be wary and where to rest up. The wilderness is also full of mysteries. You can gather at the Outpost and then set off for an expedition. Areas like the River Cave and the Ice Falls are largely unexplored. Write into the paper if you see anything curious.
Herbert’s (sometimes) helpful sidekick Klutzy.
Why does Klutzy help Herbert? – Wei Kupklutz
I have heard from reliable sources that when Herbert first drifted near our island, he was tossed off of an iceberg and into the treacherous water. Not able to swim, the polar bear panicked. That was when Klutzy the crab risked the choppy waves and braved the swatting of a floundering bear. Ever since, they have been inseparable. I’m afraid I can’t answer your question completely, since we still haven’t been able to speak to Klutzy. But I choose to think that he sees some good side of Herbert that we have never witnessed. What about you, readers? What would Klutzy say about Herbert if we could ask him?
Secrets Classified Herbert’s Anti-intrusion Devices!
By Gary - Over our many confrontations with Herbert, I’ve seen him utilize a number of clever traps. Since some of you may soon be venturing into his lair, I thought it would be prudent to review his methods. First and foremost, be wary for suspended cages. These devices are simple and effective. Herbert’s desire to be warm makes him lean towards lasers and hot sauce in his inventions. He’s all about using heat as a weapon, so be aware. I hope these tips help you out in the field. Good luck!
