Hi again. My account will be 11 in about 10 days. That's why I decided to make another puzzle train. 11 GAs for 11 years, I think it's fair enough. GAs are mostly some gabage but that's not my problem.

If some of the puzzles look familiar it's because I stole them.

I'm still too lazy to make proper hints myself, so please, share any hints with each others, just don't give direct answers or links.
Just to be clear: you can and probably should give each other any hints/clues/ways for a solution other than direct answers.

P.S. Feel free to ask me for anything related to the puzzles. I'll ignore you anyway, 'cause I don't speak English.
P.P.S. Almost forgot. Here's the list of GAs:

Happy cakeday!


edit: for anyone just starting, it appears that the puzzle starts from the bottom game shown in the pic and each solve takes you to giveaway for the game above it (e.g. solving 1st -> psychonauts link, 2nd => content warning link, 3rd => nexomon link, and so on)

I just made it to Turbo Overkill GA (6th game). Really struggled from 3 -> 4 and even more from 5->6 lol. That's not to say they were actually more difficult, just that my brain wasn't on the same wavelength.

Anyway, for those just starting out, my advice so far is:

  1. At least for the first 6, you can forget everything from the zelghadis guide (love his name - always reminds me of Slayers - anyway, it's a great guide just you're not going to need to do fancy / technical stuff like decoding ascii/hex/etc and you also won't need to use online tools like steganography stuff and the like - that was his previous puzzle, not this one. that said, I have no clue for after the 6th game).
  2. If you're struggling to figure out where to start, try looking at Fluffster's comment below (not his reply to MY comment, his reply to Volcanic's) and WaxWorm's comment on the next page

update: made it to Guardians. Back to being stumped lol

Glad it helped. I'm also stuck so no further hint from me until I get past the second hurdle.

got 2nd one. no tools / technical stuff required for it (which ironically, I spent a good deal of time attempting that route to get to the first code before realizing I was vastly over-complicating things lol)... same concept as with the first code but different base

To fellow entrant-hopefuls: so we're suposed to wait for the puzzles to be added or find the 5 letters somehow from what we have now?

What you need to get yourself started is already in the original post. Sometimes you need to go upstream to find the source of your problems.

Thanks for the tip.
I hope the top two GAs aren't region-locked though (both have 0 entrants so far.)

There are a lot of GAs with 0 entries so far and it's most likely because nobody has solved the entire thing yet.
