I figured out most of them almost instantly, but question 5 took a really long time, even after reading all of the comments here. One issue I had was that I was on the right track, but I didn't pick the correct word. After solving it, I realized that I tried a few other words that have the same meaning, but didn't think of the one correct word for some reason. There's not much time left now, but it might be helpful with these type of questions to add multiple answers.
Other than that one question, I enjoyed the puzzle and it felt good to be able to breeze through most of them pretty quick. Thanks for the puzzle and the nice giveaways :)

Oddly, it's Q1 that blocks me. Tried them all social networks I could think of.... Do I need to think outside the box ?

Thank you for the quiz! Took me a while to figure out the Q5 but the rest was smooth sailing after that. Reading all hits for Q5 helped a lot, just try to not overthink it^^

Bump for solved; thanks for the interesting puzzles!

Only Q1 left - seems my reluctance to use (or acknowledge) social media makes this harder for me than expected. :D

Bump for finally got it!
Like everyone else, q5 was the bane of my existence. Unlike everyone else, I was pretty far until it clicked.

Hmm... for Q5:
Blacklist, Potato, and Bump don't work, and for every common sense idea that comes to mind (like insult, silence, attack, curse, frustration, etc.) there's 30+ synonyms to try. I'll have to duck out on that one.
Thanks for the puzzle nevertheless 💖- and good luck to all of you language wizards who made it :)
Edit: got Q5 eventually - nice one
Read at your own peril: It's always amusing people trying to crowdsource the answers to SG puzzles, sometimes it's on Q1, this time it's here - google indexes this stuff much faster than people think...

When someone like you with those cursed puzzles has trouble with Q5,
It should be enough to say how confusing the question is
Comment has been collapsed.
It might be slightly too open at face value - but maybe I'm just not having the right idea or cultural background or the thing is just too clever for me today. The way I see it: the puzzles you don't solve, you learn from when the solution is revealed - and be wiser for it next time - or perhaps learn to better judge the line between 'too open question' and 'puzzle'. No need to get upset about it or trying to cheat on another website - which, when successful, just spoils the puzzle for everybody who googles the phrase and finds the puzzle/answer solved verbatim on another site.

Body, I'm not upset, it's just that you solved a puzzle to a large extent, but there is a part left, it's a bit annoying.
Neither you nor the user who started this thread owes anyone anything
And yes, you are right, you can learn from these puzzles after finding out the answers
I just hope that those who solve the puzzle will explain later so that others can learn

Wow, one I actually solved before the great Tomas. Without giving any hints I will say the creator has given enough info in hints scattered throughout the pages that you could get it if you wanted.

I'll sleep on it - my brain might catch up eventually 🧩🤘🧩

... okay brain did catch up.
People who haven't learned English on their mother's knee will not have internalized the part this question hinges on in a way that makes the response to Q5 obvious. I'm not a native speaker myself - and I've reached for far more sophisticated and 'clever' answers first. I'm most proud of trying 'sigh', 'eye-roll', and 'finger' :)

If you connect the Reindeer's name with the location, it might help :)

I'm decoding it rigth now. I was wondering if reading about some random austian king on wikipedia was overthinking too much until I saw certain image :P

Bump! Stuck on Q5, literally searching up the definition of a noun to make sure I'm not going crazy and forgot basic English...hopefully it will come to me.

May I ask a hint for Q5, is it a single word or a phrase?

bump for solved - Q5 had me treading water for a while...

Okay, I got it, like two minutes after I gave up. lol

Well, got the bird but not the answer(s). Nice puzzle, but I'm not smashing my head against the wall since I'll not enter for any game anyway.
Stiil, thanks!

No chance for me with Q5, but would love to see that word when the puzzle ends

Bump for solved with 20 minutes left
Took me hours to solve Q5 and I think it was mostly luck rather than good reasoning on my part

For Q5 "Noun: Not the answer but many will want to reply with it, it's one of the most basic and primitive" I got it by googling sayings related to the keyword 'answer', that's when it clicked.
The saying goes 'Violence is not the answer' but in this case violence was, in fact, the answer!
I overthought the crap out of this so don't feel bad it you didn't get it cause it took me several more hours and in-depth googling than I'd like to admit, lol!

Damn, i remember trying violence but it was wrong, must have made a mistake.

Oh man, I've done that in a quiz that asked for a video game character, I copied and pasted the correct name but it must have had a space or something because I never did get it right. (Ｔ▽Ｔ) You have my deepest sympathies.

It's my first train. I hope you enjoy both the quizz and games. Good luck everyone!!!

Don't forget to bump and give some feedback :)
The answers from the quiz:
Reddit, has a pretty bad rep because of it's comunity but if you need help with something specific is super useful.
Lorem Ipsum, the clue is an extract of a text written in a pseudo latin. It doesn't mean nothing and is used as placeholder to show fonts,
Penguin, their plumage looks like a tuxedo
Outer Wilds
Violence, there's the saying "Violence is not the answer", even if it's one answer you sometimes want to give to some people (this one has some extra correct answers because of it's elevated difficulty)
Crosscode
lea
Human, the clue is a reference the mithos about the sphinx who tormented a Tebes and killed those unable to answer it's riddles. It didn't left until a hero answered correctly a famous riddle.
