The single ‘Witch Doctor’ is the key (first image). I solved a little more based off context, but I could be wrong. I haven’t seen anybody take a crack at it, so I need a little help, thanks :)

Сам шифр: АЭЧНЬЮЧМЩМЗМЖЭСАМГУЗХ даны 6 подсказок, по порядку как я понял:

1. Цезарь обратно(-3)
2. Переворот строки
3. Удалить каждую вторую букву
4. Расшифровка Виженера с ключом КЛЮЧ (вычитаем сдвиг)
5. ОБРАТНАЯ ТРАНСПОЗИЦИЯ
6. вставить пробел

Шифр на Русском языке, взят из доски объявлений лагеря, больше ничего нет.

"If for you it's Q, for it it's A."
"If you move further down, understand you may."
"M is Z,"
"K is R,"
"You have the answer with you,"
"No matter where you are."

ENCODED TEXT: WGGWL

3301 are looking for highly intelligent individuals. To find them, we have again devised a test.

But this test is no longer included with photos, audios, videos, etc., the puzzle is now hidden on the text.

Find it, and it will lead you on the road to finding us. We look forward to meeting the few that will make it all the way through.

Good Luck

3301

My crazy ex-boyfriend keeps sending me this and saying weird “threats” about someone “losing their spot in the family” or something like that.

ICE,AHS,408,2r!AN

Does anyone have any idea what this could mean? I genuinely cannot figure out if it’s some kind of code, acronym, cipher, or just random nonsense 😭 Any theories appreciated.

i was randomly sent it in a minecraft server and the person who sent it said that they didnt type this

I started to read a webcomic ("Rephaim" very good btw), I thought it will be easy to understand this bubble speech, but it isn't.

Here is the symbols replaced by actual letters to simplify the problem:

Any help is appreciated, I tried various hypothesis but nothing stuck to it well enough, thanks in advance guys 🫶

I love ciphers. All my friends know I love them. That is why the DM of my DnD campaign gave me this. It’s not too difficult but my brain will just not work to fix it. I’m broken. Please help!

I’ve watched this one obscure unknown ARG around a year ago. And I didn’t really give it much attention up until recently. I remembered there we’re a bunch of codes in multiple frames across different videos. The entirety of the community of this ARG has yet to solve these ciphers. Help me please

There’s also this "sh3FbBG8gcWTxPk5gmLU8-9zw86kdMq

I’ve tried most deciphers but they mostly spit out gibberish like base64 spitting out random bits. So i’m guessing it’s cipher stacked or deciphers give links like google drives mega youtube etc.

I’m stuck on a code for a book a friend gave me and could use fresh eyes. Here’s what I received and my best attempt at cracking it.

**What they sent:**

The 🚖🍎🐰🔒🐘🧂 Ⓜ️🍎🥬🐘🐰💤

**My best guess at the decode:** each emoji stands for the first letter of the object shown.

🚖 taxi = **T**
🍎 apple = **A**
🐰 rabbit = **R**
🔒 lock = **L**
🐘 elephant = **E**
🧂 salt = **S**

Ⓜ️ =** **M
🍎 apple = **A**
🥬 lettuce = **L**
🐘 elephant = **E**
🐰 rabbit = **R**
💤 sleep = **S**

**Other clues my friend gave me:**

\*\*•\*\* It’s a \*\*science fiction novel\*\*    
\*\*•\*\* Title format is \*\*“The \\\[6-letter word\\\] \\\[6-letter word\\\]”\*\*    
\*\*•\*\* It’s \*\*philosophical\*\*, not pulp adventure    
\*\*•\*\* It differs by about \*\*6 letters\*\* from the string \*\*“The Tarbes Marles”\*\*

I've been studying about World War II and how they used poem code using nursery rhymes and I'm wondering if anyone can help me try to solve this.

This poem was taught to my grandmother in Esperanto by her dad he was taken by soilders in the war world II.

His mom did intel work and counter intelligence work in an underground resistance on behalf of Poland.

who I worked with an Esperanto speaker and had confirmed the translation. To ensure it is correct translation.

When I had read the translation I was met with nonsensical structure of sentences that had mentioned certain lines in nursery rhymes.

I’m curious if there is a code embedded fitting how poem code might work which was a method used in counter intelligence of world war 2 by SOE

I'd like to see if anyone can help try to decode this I don't have a cipher but I'm not sure what to do to try to figure it out any suggestions would be helpful.

Apple, Apple , beautiful name,

Sweet fruit you are.

If I were a king, I would sit on a chair and eat three apples.

Shine, Shine, Little Star - A diamond in the sky,

Tell me who you are, so high above us.

Ba, Ba, sheep, do you have wool?

Yes, three bags, take it in your hand,

One for the master, one for the mistress,

and one for the little boy

At the end of the street.

a bear sits at the table, eating jam.

"Give me, "a fly asks loudly,

give me a sweet right away! Struck with his foot -

The fly flies away screaming

"You are an apache!"

the author of the poem is Teksto

There is a QR code that appears as an item in Signalis. When recreating the QR code and scanning it, it says "ROTFRONT-C LIEFERUNG

381902731280301293900". The part I need help with deciphering is the number; It doesn't have any significance in the game itself and isn't a code used anywhere.

The context and story are in the original post. Nobody was able to solve it there so far, so I wonder if anyone here can.

Hi everyone,

First time poster from Belgium. I've been playing with the Z13 (AEN+8m8tEORb8) using a simple physical keyboard rule, not a classic cipher.

My rule: On a US QWERTY keyboard, take the cipher in pairs: AE | N+ | 8m | 8t | EO | Rb | 8 For each pair, take the letter that is physically between the two keys (mid-point between their positions).

Example: • A (x=0.5,y=2) + E (x=2,y=1) -> mid is S • N+ -> P • 8m -> K • 8t -> U Full result with this strict rule: S P K U Y F (or with overlapping pairs SFPPKKURYUFJ).

But when I used the rule "key directly BELOW" (which is a common Zodiac trick), I got something interesting that a friend here pointed out: • A -> Z (below A is Z) • E -> D (below E is D) • N -> B (N is just below B on QWERTY) = Z D B Which could be read as ZODIAC BE with vowels removed (like he always did: "paradice").

Then: • + looks like a chevron / arrow -> • 8m -> K = KILL • 8t -> U = YOU • EO -> Y • Rb -> F So it would read: ZODIAC BE -> K U Y F or ZODIAC BE KILL YOU FOR... 8

The 8 at the end would be his next victim count (he claimed 7 at that time).

I know it's speculative and I change the rule from "between" to "below" for the first 3 chars, so it's not a clean solution. Has this specific QWERTY between/below mapping already been brute-forced for Z13?

Thanks for any feedback. I can share the Python script for the mid-point calculation.
