Howdy, gang! I've been enjoying making weekly giveaways via small puzzles, and if I keep doing it, making a thread for each one is gonna end up being a total mess in the forums, sooo I figured I'd keep it all in here! Every week, more or less, I'll put up a new 2solve puzzle that leads to a pretty good game - most of the time I'll just outright be buying some cool stuff, I could make y'all go through the extra hoops to get some bundled games, but ehhh. I wanna go above and beyond. Down below'll be the write-up for the newest puzzle, then below that'll be a little chart with the puzzles from past giveaways, if you feel like giving 'em a try for the fun of it. Most of my puzzles are pretty simple - connecting themes, usually related to the game itself. While my puzzles will always be solvable with a bit of thinking or research, I'll fully admit: if you're a fan of the series/game I'm giving away, you'll probably be a bit more likely to figure it out. That's somewhat intentional - while it'll never be a requirement to solve things, as past participants can attest, it's nice for games to go to people who'll enjoy them! Not just collectors. If you're stuck on the current puzzle, and you haven't done the old ones, try 'em. Might help you figure out how my brain works.


Off-week this week - but I put up my Humble Monthly leftovers in the group. If you're not in the group yet, just solve any of the puzzles from Escape Simulator onwards to get the link!


Here lies giveaways from the past. A nice and simple chart, game given, link to its puzzle, and the solve percentage and entrants, mostly for the hell of it. I like to keep track of that kind of thing. Numbers are cool. Most recent giveaways are at the top, older at the bottom!

Game Puzzle Solve Percentage Entrants
DREDGE Link 16.0% 53
NieR: Automata Link 24.2% 51
Cult of the Lamb Link 32.5% 75
Gunfire Reborn Link 14.7% 42
DAVE THE DIVER Link 67.4% 77
Escape Simulator Link 27.1% 41
Risk of Rain Returns Link 46.6% 52
Inscryption Link 34.1% 49
Darkest Dungeon II Link 29.4% 68
Persona 5 Royal Link 29.6% 184
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Link 20.5% 90

First group giveaway is now up! It's up for three days, so there's a little extra incentive to solve the puzzle early, whether you're interested in Escape Simulator or not! It is a bit region restricted, unfortunately, the key's not as global as I'd hoped it'd be.

I'm sorry I have serious add and that was a very ambiguous reply. I don't see whatever the "latest" is. Guess I will just miss out on this one whatever it is.

Bear in mind it's one word, no punctuation, if that helps.

First puzzle, question 5 can we get a hint? Its a nightmare!

The game in question is REALLY popular. Like, we're talking top 20 most viewed (as of the moment I'm typing this) on twitch levels of popular. Can't give too much of a hint other than that fact.

Just to confirm as a non-native English speaker, what do you mean with "titular location" in Q5? As in, the name of the location is shared with the name of the game?

Titular means it's in the title. So yes.
