Hello and welcome to my Puzzle Train!

(Giveaways are active till the 17th!)

Are you ready for adventure? Mystery? Romance?

Well, I can't promise you all of the above. What I can promise is a non-linear "story", with multiple endings, a bunch of Giveaways and hopefully a headscratcher or two. Waits for applause


!!! IMPORTANT !!!

In order to get this puzzle train to work (and for me to keep my sanity) I made use of this wixsite I created.
Just replace you answer (aka "help") in the URL below.

https://zantaff.wixsite.com/sg-puzzle/help

This also means some answers can be more or less than 5 characters, whole words or entire-phrases.
How grand!!

Additional Info/Disclaimer:
Wixsite is not a URL shortener or self promotion - it's a free, personal website I manage just for additional puzzle madness. Since all links will go to the same 'sg-puzzle' site, nothing weird will show up, even if the decode is incorrect. This also allows me to better pre-plan, make more unique puzzles, as well and potentially stop some bots (I see you, Secret Sniffer). Hopefully all this effort will pay off.


No Idea exactly how this is going to play out, or what the 'difficulty' is. There's potentially some really hard puzzles. IDK - y'all bunch of smarty-pants. If nobody makes it to the end, the train shall continue on another day.


Tips:

  • Feel free to discuss puzzles and clues. But please, no spoilers!
  • Don't worry if you die! There's at least 15 Endings.
  • If your answer isn't 5 letters, try adding it to the 'sg-puzzle' URL above.
  • Letters will always be lowercase for the 'sg-puzzle' URL
  • You will NOT need to download any special software. Windows & Google have all the necessary tools to figure stuff out.
  • Confirmed all answers work in Firefox & Chrome.
  • There's at least 35 Giveaways.
  • Update: The number of exits will now be shown in each room. ├ ╞ ╠

on that note, the train will leave
nothing else here for us to perceive
whenever you feel stuck, lost or pissed
always look a bit harder, think what you could've missed
regard old decisions, give not into fear
don't let it stop you - ride on, persevere

I'm already kind of stumped. Got 1 bad ending and 1 instant dead end. There are at least 14 more paths? How on earth?!
This one's gonna take a while...

Edit: Made some more progress. I'm blind.
Edit: Kind of at an impasse again. I've got 16 GAs, 5 (or 6?) endings, 14 wix links, 2 daggers. Found the bizarro version of this page.

This puzzle is so interesting! The definition of "Came for the giveaways, stayed for the puzzle" :D
I do have to say I've only got one word so far. Is there any way to get more context about my surroundings and what is going on?

1) Find answer to puzzle
2) Put answer in url https://zantaff.wixsite.com/sg-puzzle/decode

If you think the answer is "dog" change the url to this:
https://zantaff.wixsite.com/sg-puzzle/dog

too brain melting a flow chart would be nice so you can see what you missed. I dont mean the answers but like a flow chart detailing how many paths out of a room and which room it links to. Like you can number each room on the flow chart and put a number on each GA so we know which rooms are visited and which are not or if we missed anything. It would still be hard but it would make it more fun.

Now that Zantaff added symbols showing the number of exits in each room, a flow chart is probably unnecessary. I keep track of all the GAs that I've visited and how I got to each one in a Google sheet. This makes it easy to see how everything is connected and where the remaining loose ends are.

Yes the symbols serve a similar function. The number of exits is basically a build your own flow chart but a flow chart would still be nice such that I can use it as a checklist. A flowchart vs symbols is just a bit of QOL.
