Hello! And welcome to "Forumclads Givelection"!

Today your host is I.. me... ExDec (yeah that sounds right)! I have a leftover key from Indie Gala V. I will tell you the game so people don't troll you with "OMG Thanks for Skyrim" etc. The game is "Ironclads Collection". I know I won't play it so I will give it away. But the catch is - you will need to answer my puzzles to get the key.

So just to lower your stress first take a look at these cute puppies!

And now first part - what am I thinking about right now?

P.S. Hints will be posted if no one manages to solve it after an hour or something like that.

HINT #1:
Everything is in front of you. Just take a closer look and maybe "dig" deeper.

HINT #2:
cef4e081f1f7d67d53e91cc6f64c587f

HINT #3:
You don't need to try to guess what I'm thinking about. Just use Hint #2. :D



ANSWERS!!!!

Part 1 - the picture:
You had to download it and open it in Notepad. There was a string from Hint 2 hidden in picture.

Part 2 - the string:
cef4e081f1f7d67d53e91cc6f64c587f   ---- md5 hash string. When you decrypt it you get this: http://www.itstoohard.com/puzzle/UfYu7EN7

Part 3 - the puzzle:

Q1 answer: 8 months

Q2 answer: Team Fortress 2

Q3 answer: Ironclads Collection

Q4 answer: Chess

Q5 answer: Latvia

Part 4 - decrypted Steam key:
Qk5XOEUtMzhJVDAtSEpZNVk=  --- Base64. Decrypting it gives you key: BNW8E-38IT0-HJY5Y (it's already used by winner).

WAS THAT REALLY SO HARD?
