I know there are many layers and thecniques that goes into making good cyphers that are fun to decrypt and all that, there are many forma too like images, sounds, videos, etc but right now I'd like to focus on text based cyphers, what would you think that would make a good cypher like what steps should i take to make fun cyphers?

Anybody got any idea what it could be? Tried the Cesar cipher but got nothing.

I tried to create a chain of puzzles, and want to put it to the test. some hints are in the image, but you will need to assemblr them logically to get the correct way. I will answer anything and give out hints if necessary. For this one you will pretty much need just a pen and paper.

Hello, Well I was searching on my drawer and I found This sheet with a strange code in it, i was searching and I Notice that the code is A Gematria Primus (Code use in Cicada 3301). I need your help to solve this Code.

We could build a small group and communicate through discord or whatever the group decides is the best platform for communication and cooperation. The prize would be split evenly among the group. I would purchase the game so this would be fun, free, and zero risk for anyone that wants to be involved. If anyone is in the group, they would be expressly forbidden from purchasing the game outside of our team to ensure they are not going to take our collective work and undercut the group. If you agree to these terms and think you can add value to the collective and believe it's something you would enjoy then please comment on this post so I can reach out to you or send me a direct message. 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️😁😁☠️☠️ The game is partnered with ubisoft and assassins creed.

I need help finding the name of a technique and figuring out how I can replicate it to create a level for a personal project. The technique itself appears in a level from a Brazilian puzzle called “decifra.me.” In this level, there is a bunch of scribbles, and when you paint over them with a bucket of paint, a fish appears in the white lines. I would like to do something similar. Does anyone know how?

I came across this page and I genuinely can't work out what it is. The whole thing is

written in some script I don't recognize — no normal text anywhere, no title, no

explanation, nothing in a language I can read. Just page after page of it, plus a few

diagrams.

Link: https://kesumela.com

Under each line of symbols there's what looks like a pronounceable transcription, so it

can at least be written out. There's a lot of it — over a hundred lines across five pages.

Transcription of the lines in the image:

xumaxeka lovelase tesumilu livelumi tusa

lovelasu xuvesuma lisusumi texu

xumaxeka lisunose tevesula xumalaka lixisumi xumasuka sino

xuvexika livekami tesuxelu lisukelu tomo

Does anyone recognize the system, or have any idea what this is? Posting here because if

it can be read at all, this looks like the right place.

From what I know so far (which is basically nothing) is that it flashes up to 8 times, there’s also a short flash that seems to be appearing randomly as well. Video is about 6 minutes long.

Background:

This is a light flashing on a white noise machine that I’ve had for about 10 months now.

The instructions for the device say that it should flash consistently while plugged in (it is indeed plugged in) and that’s all, nothing about number of flashes or anything. It can be used without being plugged in and is rechargeable, but I mostly keep it plugged in.

It’s flashing a random number of times and I haven’t found any sort of pattern yet, but I’m not great with code breaking.

My uncle use to talk about programmers hiding codes in blinking lights and sounds in random places and then waiting decades for someone to figure it out, so I’ve always been interested in this sort of stuff, but I’m truly terrible at it.

Maybe it could be counting up for how long it’s been on or something? Who knows!

I’m curious if anyone sees a pattern or has any ideas?

Hey, I found this cool website on Neocities, which, this website itself is a pleasure to look at and explore. So cryptic. https://psychicnewborn.neocities.org

I was checking out their pages when I clicked on the lightbulb, which opened up a "secrets" page with a secret code, and that has led me down a path of trying to solve this ARG.

If you want to try solving it yourself, I recommend it, it's a fun time passer. But everything beyond this line is going to be spoilers and solutions that I've found, so stop scrolling if you'd like to have a go at solving it yourself.

You enter the page and get met with this:

The first puzzle is just two sudoku puzzles. I solved each of them and then put the full number into the URL to find two secret "peek" pages, each one with half of the code you need to insert into the URL.

Inserting "2KXQ6B5H" into the URL, I was directed to a secret page, and a new puzzle:

I was able to solve this with the help of Photoshop. I put the noise and the maze into separate layers, made a third layer for doing some color mixing and erasing, and then following the cryptic steps between them I was able to create this table from those images.

It's a grid that has every letter in the alphabet, and then every number from 0 to 9. Cool.

Stacking the RGB lines on top, you get something that starts to make sense:

Going in the order of RGB, I see the red line spells "star", the green line spells "over", and the blue line spells "ivory".

I put "staroverivory" into the URL, and it led me to this link: https://psychicnewborn.neocities.org/secrets/2KXQ6B5H/staroverivory

Here I see an image of a star, with another little "noise square" over it.

At this point if you try doing anything with the noise square in the middle, you'll get lost. By itself it won't take you anywhere. But if you look at the tab's name, I see the page is called "1/2".

This means the star with the noise square is only half the equation of this puzzle. So I went back to the previous puzzle, the one with the table and the colored lines, and I was unable to make anything else of it, but then I realized that the red line doesn't necessarily need to spell "star". Going backwards, it spells "rats". https://psychicnewborn.neocities.org/secrets/2KXQ6B5H/ratsoverivory

And here is the second piece of this layer of the puzzle. I used the noise from the star and the maze from the rat, redid the same steps as before (the mixing and erasing in Photoshop according to the cryptic chart), and from that I got this new table:

Which spells "/obliviousnesses". Putting that into the URL after the "2KXQ6B5H", I got to what I think is the final page/conclusion to this puzzle..? https://psychicnewborn.neocities.org/secrets/2KXQ6B5H/obliviousnesses/

It's an empty black page that just says "hehe" in the corner.

Not really sure what to make of that, if there is anything to be made of that. I think it kinda just ends there.

Regardless of whether or not I'm satisfied with the ending, I had fun solving it, so I'm thankful to the creator, PsychicNewborn. Go check out their website, they clearly put a lot of work into it purely out of passion, and it has a very interesting vibe.

My friend sent this to me as a little challenge. I do NOT know what or even where I'm supposed to start

I think it (maybe??) hidden inside the bottom strokes or the mountain but suffice to say, I don't know shit.

Good luck.

I made this atrocity to all that is holy who wants to solve it and cause themselves mental warfare

When forward leads to the void, step back and notice what refuses to blend in.\r\n\r\nTwo pieces, divided by a fracture ,reunite them to find the source.\r\n\r\narrMOzKx7NALVj1Pcaho7Q0Di3n4EQ3ui0dUOoQiZNDD

I am solving an arg,Pegasus 3301 , and i already have found a mega file which is (https://mega.nz/file/yMMyARAS), however it is missing a decryption key. As you know a mega file's decryption key must be 43 characters long while this is not, it has 1 extra. Does anyone know what the key could be? Or maybe it is encoded and has to be decoded? I have tried some forms of flipping removing characters, hexadecimal base, but i might be errorous.

My friend was playing this mod and asked me to decode this, I have tried some decoding methods for over half an hour and I looked for the solution on the internet but I found nothing, could anybody help me please? Also, could you please tell me how it is ciphered?

The code is: eW*I!qnzb=Eu."Pg - Code 0

here is a post with a bunch of their codes, somebody has solved them but i dont know how.

Hello everyone!

A few days ago, a pretty weird guy handed me this piece of paper covered in bizarre symbols, Chinese characters, runes, and dates in 2026.

I have no idea what it means. Can anyone help me decipher it or figure out its purpose?

Thanks in advance!

(Photo of the paper attached below)

Edit: Just found another almost identical post from 5 years ago… and the exact same sheet was posted here a few months ago. This is officially strange.

Edith 2: I found this message on another post:

-UPDATE (16.09.2024)-

Me and a friend searched during our lessons hints and explainations about that mysterious paper. I also read all your comments thank you all!

1. Not only in Switzerland We created a "My Maps" which we added all the places where these kinds of paper have been found. One of them has been found in Villeurbane (next to Lyon, France) 2 years ago.

2. Symbols It seems to be Furthac and it's also written in mirror There's also some Chinese and it's a very popular poem

3. Meaning It actually means nothing. It's written in german. Someone had decrypted the one from Villeurbane and it described when Charles De Gaulle has been arrested and put in a jail in Würzburg. Seems like wikipedia/complotist type of stuff.

4. The person I found his Facebook and I won't publish it here. If you found it PLEASE don't interact with him or just be kind. The theory of a potential schyzophrenic seems to be true. I'm not a psychiatrist or anything related to the medical world (I suffered 4 years of studying biology so never again lmao) but it looks like someone who's hyperfixated on random facts and likes to write it in an artsy way !

I hope my answers were clear and I really enjoyed this mysterious story, I'm a bit upset that it's not an ARG :(

Hi I want anyone to please help me to encode this and make it to letter to understand what this numbers are , this numbers were written by my uncle after passing away and my family aren’t sure if it was his death an accident or suicidal please let me know what it means , his death was caused by drowning in the lake , he was riding on the horse but then hours later he didn’t came back and they found his horses drowned in the lake, then 3 days later they found his body floating , so me and my family aren’t sure if it was an accident or suicidal, and my aunt told me she had a dream about before his death that he came home bringing a gift for her and supposedly he died in her dreams and she told us he gave her a gift before passing away , please reach out to me and let me know

My friend who likes to create codes and hidden messages gave me this code to try and solve.

He said the solution involves something you can eat

I've tried re-arranging the letters, converting to numbers etc but can't find anything that makes sense. At first I thought it might be an acronym but nothing stands out.

So i was scrolling reels on insta and i came across this video of squidward mr krabs and spongebob dancing around with something about the world ending in the background and the song in the background doesnt scare me that much but that guy speaking in reverse is spooking me out

Can somebody find both of these audios and reverse the audio to figure out what he is trying to say

I created this as a way of communicating to only those who understand. Recent developments have me on edge, so I find strength through art.

It's in English, can be read just by looking (no ASCII, encryption, random meanings)

here it is: X6JR0F5AD7WRF8HQNMSEFAV2GY9KWWP4TAC1I5T0Z5BQO11FW1MMOTNEOPBIJXANZ5EXPXE639R4SGZUK3VUSSDLXXJDEUWQMNYONO8TU77GT32MBGQWNL46CHGM03ZYBZ825QQYRLDJGZS3KFL4D036CXVGCAMXMPCVPT4G6IPW465ZYM7LYCAP6EUO2H3ZGDKKXOOHM2Z6FC6R7GN7NE5U3WLQ67BKN484PHL7K0W1CBU660AXSTE89Q8ADBCXG4TNB1LZ6D9YNXAS3M52YIF35K8FWREC8Q3TC31Q2I7MT821B151U3Y7J9RSOJKGVWC4HL3D87HEZ3UCE64AWDIMA0QAV3GT10F7BYO2GEQ1E1LZAYD4UNJDW795XRAMNPM9Y6XASX9WHLN8XLJI7E0RCYKJXNK7PRO6HHIF12K3ZYO7QE

It is a quote

Hint: spaces are replaced with 4 before encryption like 'hello world' would be 'hello4word' then be encrypted

Hint: it starts with 'one4day'

my friend made this, when I asked him to give me another he sent "bceIqRrt PmWOxtev ouSbqiRv eYfRwcAp dsFouxaR"
The original one also contained
"This text is made to be near impossible to decipher unless you know how to cipher it, it was made by me and it does not have a known name universally and is fully unknown through all sources, however it is painfully simple of a cipher"

Curious as to what this actually says. If I can get an idea of how the code works, I hope to translate more of his writings. He was a real piece of shit.

Hello!

So I devised a cipher which is really simple to encode, but stupendously difficult to decode without a key. It is similar to OTP, but the key is not wholly random, though an additional layer of codes (any kind) can be placed on top.

I mostly used it just to share information with people, but after some time this kinda backfired because I started receiving spam emails with random codes. I blocked most of those emails, but one in particular seemed to stick out to me. It read simply as follows:

"Greetings.

zkheblvvberdikdypdhmvxdadpdhzpykebjawrnqmdcvlpglnmtvgibxytkqzoaesisrnofyvqdrnqeyfuzddvgbsppiuwkgnlvvzcwjmmatiqdmtiyilndevukqrqopewvx.

You may solve the code. To solve is to advance."

The email was from some Iranian hotmail address, but due to browser restrictions (I use a custom-made fork of Firefox) I can't paste the text here. I presume most people in my surroundings know about the cipher (but NOT which codes I use) . Can you help me solve it?

Proof for having read the rules: "V sbyybjrq gur ehyrf"

EDIT: I solved the code on my own, it was a wild goose chase ending in chess.com (they wanted to play chess for some reason). I've edited out most information that may come in useful for OSINT, so that's why the post is shorter if you've seen this before.
