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

It is known that if you leave a comment that you stuck on Q5, you will soon find the answer yourself.

Yeah that's the idea, I was hopping that some angel, magical creature or a new dimensions appears after wrote the comment to inspire me and guide me to the answer xD
Seems to work for a lot of people...

I can figure out q3, 4, and 5; and I could probably figure out q2, but I have absolutely zero context for q1. I doubt I could figure out the game/series on my own.

edit: NVM, got them both, thanks for the GA

they're all VERY popular game series, there's nothing obscure here, so. keep thinking!

Completely stuck on q2 for days, i came to the conclusion that i may have never heard of this game, not even with the clue i could get it :/

Edit: I just HAD to write a comment... smh, i got it within minutes of posting this, i think that question was very hard to just figure out for people that didn't play the specific game, but i was so sure i could get it that i forgot about the basics of puzzle solving lmao

Bump for the newest giveaway - NieR: Automata!

It's my birthday, as of 9 minutes ago. :) And Persona 3 Reload day, my gift to myself... in the morning when I wake up, since I got a physical preorder. Probably dumb of me, but this is a game that'll be nice to have a real copy of, I think.

Edit: thanks for the birthday wishes, gang! <3

Sup WNDR, was already missing you, you made me get a habit of (trying to) solve your puzzles hahaha, im already having trouble with one of them tho, question 3, i could just try to bruteforce it if you don't feel like giving out any clues since it is actually the last one standing, but just in case i wanted to ask! :D

Yeah, I'm stuck on question 3 as well.

I'll get 4 in a bit...I'm not an Apple guy, so that didn't help, but I'm sure I'll figure that one out. No idea on 3, though.

I love your puzzles but this time I'm suprisingly lost. I figuread out 2 and 4 pretty fast, but got stuck on the rest. I thought I knew 1 and 3 right away, but nope. Maybe I just read the leads differently than you meant it to sound... IDK, I hope I'll figure it out before the end :D
