Everybody has to cross the river. Only 2 people on the raft at a time. The father cannot stay with any of the daughters without their mother's presence. The mother cannot stay with any of the sons without their father's presence. The thief (striped shirt) cannot stay with any family member if the Policeman is not there. Only the Father, Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft.It took me about 10 minutes to figure out, though I thinl you get 30. Enjoy!
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.

One had to get everyone over to the other side and then derive the coordinates based on a rule set and the position of family members.
And btw - that family is certainly quite dysfunctional.
