So I have decided to make a Puzzle Giveaway. The puzzle questions will be from the Star Wars franchise. The game was going to be from the same franchise, but my supplier ran out. So hopefully everyone will like the prize. Might make another giveaway with a Star Wars game sometime. This Puzzle will consist of three steps: Maths, Puzzle and Code Breaker.


Step 1 (Code Breaker): Game Title

7 20 1 9 22 3 15 13 16 12 5 20 5 5 4 9 20 9 15 14

Step 2 (Puzzle):

Clicky

Step 3 (Maths):

First that comments with the right answers gets the game. (Only 1 Winner)

3 2 + 431 # 132 – 1345 / 341 # = ???

1 + # * 54 / 2 + 3435 / 6 + # = ???

8 - # - # + # / # + # * # = ???

30 % of # = ???


Warning

Contains Spoilers from the Books, So if you don't know how Chewie (For Example) dies. You mightn't want to continue.


Hope everyone has fun trying to figure the code. Once you do each step, please do not give out the answers, even if you have the game in question.

Thanks. :D


Update:

We have a Winner!

Thank you to all that had a go. I can see areas that I need to clean up before hosting another Puzzle giveaway. Thanks for the test run.

I can't get the answer for 10 to work, is there a catch?

You have to do Step 2 to find out.

The answer you get from step 2 is ambiguous. Without spoiling it, the last word of the clue you get has multiple interpretations, so two answers are possible. And it doesn't seem to provide you with everything you need to solve step 3 in any case... If you're supposed to use intermediate results, the equations don't make clear how.

Just a heads up, I have no interest in the giveaway.

ok true I should have used a different symbol to represent number characters, I just went with the default. Prob should have changed the unknown variable symbol.

Confused because of what Nudiustertian said, but is this what you're looking for?

Oh, that is confusing if you're right, because he's using one character to mean both a digit and a complete number. But I do see what you did.

Didn't catch that before either. I don't think we're supposed to use intermediate results since he asks for anwserS. Also, just to be thorough, not rounding the # variable would result in these:

My point was that "rounding" (your word, not mine :-)) can mean quite a lot of things when the last digit is 5.

Oops. I can remove that word if you want OP. Anyway, I guess I was just going on what I was taught growing up. Waiting for some feedback from OP.

I thought everyone was taught to round 5 up?

Sorry should have just stated "round up".

i thought so too until i saw that article. i think that's the most common practice, at least in the US

Your first answer was right, therefore you win.
I did state that Pie was to be rounded.

The confusing part was that the last hint could have easily applied to Pie since it was indicated to have 3 decimal places. However, I didn't event connect both hints until mentioned above.

Well, I was probably overthinking things too. I guess it's a good thing I didn't want to win. :-) Anyway, congrats!

Since it's over, how do people solve these Code breakers?

The numbers (n) just represent the nth letter in the alphabet.

So for example, 7 is G?
