This came up in a game I played against Lord Rattington recently and I was too busy thrashing him to notice that this was possible until after the game:

Gain the entire Wish pile in a single turn.

I've thought of multiple solutions so I added some "hard modes", which I spoilered to keep from giving hints:
No villages/splitters.
No returning to your action phase. (My kingdom had this + only Trusty Steed as a splitter which is really no splitters.)
No landscapes.
All of the above - I haven't found a way to do this though, I can do any 2 but not all 3.

Bonus puzzle: If there were unlimited copies of wish how many can you gain in a single turn? I can get to 65 given perfect shuffle luck but I bet someone can do better.

Hard mode

play 10 Experiments to draw 9 Processions and 6 Leprechauns
play 6 Processions and a Leprechaun twice
play 6th Procession again to play another Leprechaun twice
play 5th Procession again to play another Procession to play another Leprechaun twice
play 7th Procession again to play another Leprechaun twice
play 4th Procession again to play 2 Processions and
another Leprechaun twice
play another Leprechaun twice

Gain a Fortress from Trash.

Note: Putting it into your hand is not gaining.

I think this should work:

Trash a Fortress on your turn with Market Square in hand.
Two when-trash triggers: MS & Fortress. Choose to resolve MS first.
Gain Gold from MS, use Architect's Guild to gain Rogue, use Innovation to play Rogue gaining Fortress.

Nice. My solution is, "play Count to trash Fortress and Lich".

Ah, neat. I was not aware that when you trash multiple cards, you get to choose the order of all on-trash effects.

What is the key card which can give you infinite vps on turn 1? (You can also use other cards.)

I'm sure there are ways with Triumph.

Oh, I didn't notice that.  I was thinking Emporium.
