We're 4 already? xD Argh, why did Docam give hints? :(

I don't trust your map. How is that even an F, Docam? :D

I tried much harder methods, but from your hints I was quite sure the first and third were the same but different case, and the second and fourth the same, and an x at the end. Today I just tried writing what I saw in the map instead of using the 5x5-coloured grids. Looked like TQtQx I thought, but when that didn't work I just put a few other pointy letters instead of the T.

A bit shocked that worked... well, here I am, and it's glorious.

I've managed to solve several of your evil puzzles now :D

No Man's Sky, Doom, Vermintide (didn't enter that one though, not my kind of game), MGS V, and I was sooo close to solving the Witcher 3 puzzle when I was quite new here on Steamgifts. Didn't try the Fallout 4 one since I already had a copy pre ordered then :)

The only users except for me that were both in the MGS V and DOOM ones were Mullins, Klinge and that strange SpaceClick person. Don't see any of them around now, so maybe I win? :D If any of them were in both the Fallout 4 and Witcher 3 giveaways they have the title though, as super-Docam-cipher-cracking true master puzzlers.

Phew, I got it!

I kind of just figured out ?Q?Qx but figured based on the grid that the 1st and 3rd ones had to be the same... then I looked at your map and noticed the arrows looked like T's.. So I tried other letters that resembled T, and F's worked.

If I might ask, where were the hints for the F's? I couldn't find any..

Originally I goofed on the colors or the original map :P the x at the end was supposed to be green and blue and then looking at a distance was supposed to give you something that resembles an F (see that HDMAP) :P But then i was like, oops wrong color, well cant change it now cause people will notice so i'll make it easier and add a second way.

Phew! Finally made it here! Kinda brute-force though.
My best guest is 1st and 3rd chars are the same, 2nd and 4th chars are the same, and the last one is `x'.
Which results 26x26=676 combination. Thank god I don't need to add 0 ~ 9 :p

Thank you very much for the puzzle and the GA :)

Had to bruteforce the "F"s too. I just couldn't see that from the map.
Still, happy to have solved a Docam puzzle! :P

In my days, there used to be only 2 entries. Now they are multiplying faster than bunnies. I don't like the modern days. :B

OMG, I made it here! :D
Thanks for the opportunity. My number one wishlisted game!

Edit: It's very rare for me to do puzzles, but since it was NMS with a low entry number I couldn't let it slip away without trying. So glad I did!

Correction - on attempt #136 (out of ~620, after cleaning duplicates and whatnot)

If you don't like brute forced solutions, I can remove my entry (sometime tomorrow, as I'm barely awake atm)

I almost tried a different bf method before this one, using the image you posted here (gave up on that one pretty fast).

Actually I saw first a T on the map, yet I thought that in the first crazy-green-thing I thought I saw something it could be an F, so I tried the second time and it worked. And I solved the puzzle with the two methods at the same time, and the second method told me that it had to be an F, so I did try it ^_^

i saw in this green thing just an 1/i or an p at the most
always tried to find it with the map
thought the second thing was mathematical stuff, for which even other letters came as a solution for me xD

Anyway, I'm not complaining. You guys had to suffer the bruteforce part, which is quite tedious... xD

Hey, could you tell us how to solve the second map? What the numbers are and what to do to turn them into letters? I feel like I'm close but I'm still missing something. Would really appreciate it ;)

Hi,
I'm hijacking this giveaway to tell you that I've added you on Steam because I would like to ask something in regard of an event I'm planning.
