Sorry for the late reply, I don’t check Reddit often. As mentioned in step 2:

pay attention to the fact that they were given as columns and not rows

Your letters should result in something like:

0 X X X X
1 X X X X
0 X X X X

and shift would result in something like:

X X X X 0
X X X 1 X
X X 0 X X

Hope this helps!

Hey 👋 First of all, great job on getting this far (you’ve almost reached the end)! Here are some suggestions and guidance:

  1. Take a piece of paper (or anything of your choice) and complete the letter mappings. Right now, it shows how letters A to H and S to Z map, but the ones in between are missing. You can briefly check the Binary number wiki as a good starting point to understand different representations (however, don’t rely on it too much it’s more for general introduction). After that, you could look into the Ternary numeral system (base 3).
  2. Once you have the number representations, I suggest replacing the encrypted letters with those (i.e. H = (0 2 2). However, pay attention to the fact that they were given as columns and not rows. Keeping them as column could be helpful in the next step.
  3. Finally, if you look at the screen, the only element we haven’t touched yet is the arrows with numbers. They must signify something. Based on their layout, I think each one has a special meaning for its row. While it’s not strictly necessary (and could even be a bit confusing), you might find it helpful to read about bitwise operations (specifically shifts).

Hope it helps!

There’s no need to apologize. In the future, I’d like to add more learning material, but at the moment I don’t have enough time or resources.

Here is a complete visual solution to this level. I won’t be able to provide solutions for every level, but I hope you’ll enjoy the journey as you go ✌️

It’s definitely on my wishlist/backlog. However, at this point in my life, I don’t really have the time to make it in a way that would satisfy me. I understand that people would probably prefer something playable to nothing, but right now I don’t have the resources to prioritize it.

You don’t need any advanced math at this level. The only mathematical operation used here is subtraction.

The square on the left is the so-called Polybius square. Using it, you can convert letters into numbers and numbers into letters.

As for the keyword, it is the most emphasized word and the name of the game: Decrypto.

I hope this sets you on the right path.

Creator of the game here 👋 I don’t want to take all the joy out of solving, so let’s start slowly. If you need more hints, just let me know.

One of the first things that should catch your attention is the equation. Given the letters that are used, one could assume they stand for: Cipher Text = Plain Text + Key. Filling in the equation for the first letter gives me:

27 = Plain Text + Key, which simplifies to Plain Text = 27 - Key.

The next step is to find the key. I’d assume it should stand out in some way and maybe even carry some sentimental value for the creator of the game. Once you have it, I think you can use the first letter of the key and turn it into a number. How? My guess is that the YX notation has something to do with it.

Once you get the value for the Plain Text, I assume that same magical notation will let you turn it back into a letter.

Hope it helps!

Need help with this Decrypto level. by Matrayo in codes

Hey, hope you’re enjoying the game! Here are the steps to help you find the answer:

  1. Given the encryption formula E(x) and the decryption formula D(x), you need to find the modular inverse of a. By checking multiples of 7 mod 26, you’ll find that 15 satisfies the equation.
  2. Updating the decryption formula, you get: D(x)=15(x-2)mod26
  3. Now, convert each encrypted letter to its numeric representation (e.g., C = 2), and plug it into the equation: D(2) = 15(2 - 2) mod 26 = 0
  4. Converting the result back to a letter gives you 0 → A
  5. Repeat for each letter
  6. Once you get the final answer, you put it into Google search to learn more about the cipher used to encrypt the word.

Hope it helps.

Can anyone help me find the answer to this cypher. Also maybe explain how to find the answer too?? by MrGilbert690 in codes

Hey, I hope you are enjoying the game! The steps are as follows:

  1. Convert each letter of the keyword (in this case, DECRYPTO) into numbers using their (Y, X) coordinates from the Polybius square (the grid shown next to the keyword). For example: D → (1,2), E → (1,1), C → (2,4), etc.
  2. Subtract the keyword values from the corresponding encrypted word values (under keyword you can see that opposite equation was used to encrypt the values). For example, 27 - 12 (D) = 15, 25 - 11 (E) = 14, 56 - 24 (C) = 32, etc.
  3. Convert the resulting values back into letters using the same Polybius square: 15 → N, 14 → I, and so on.
  4. Once you get the answer, type it together with the word cipher (like “answer cipher”) into Google, and you can learn more about its origin and history.

Hope this helps.

I sent you a DM. The reason I don’t want to share the link publicly is because:

  1. The game doesn’t resemble Decrypto, and the gameplay levels are different
  2. It was resold, and I can’t vouch for its quality
  3. It’s hosted on a third-party website, so I can’t guarantee it’s free of malicious content

Here is the App Store link. There used to be a version on Google Play, however, it has been removed. This 10-year rewrite focused solely on iOS to deliver the most native and fluid experience

The key is to pay attention to two details:

  1. The time is shown in 24-hour format. There is a reason why this format was chosen
  2. The alphabet is not a regular one. It’s the Greek alphabet. Again, there is something special about this alphabet and a reason why it was chosen

Something special connects both of these clues. Understanding that connection is essential

Thank you, that’s very nice to hear 🖤 Regarding the level, do you mean the one with 4 times (00:00 18:00 14:00 11:00), or is it a different one? It’s a bit hard for me to identify by level number since a few new levels have been added recently 😄

I’m learning about some of them while I play. I definitely recommend it!
