I feel less a sense of success at finishing the game and more of a "dear god what have I done?". Is that just me? >.>"

On the newspaper puzzle, the spelling/grammar made me think there was something going on with the words like a cipher or something like that, until I realized the real solution. Talk about overthinking it haha.

I was on the newspaper question, I felt like I had figured it out, I got super excited! I pressed mouse4 and went back a page. No saves :(

Great game, I totally failed on the first camera level because the letter "W" has only recently been added to my country's alphabet, so I completely forgot to count it and ended up getting 25 to Z and not Y

Hint, the camera level shows different 2 digit numbers that = a letter. A = 1, B = 2. The example was given: LIE = 12 - 09 - 05. L = 12, I = 09, E = 05. It should spell 3 words. I'm not giving you the answer so you feel accomplished when you figure it out.

Great game. 5/5. Lots of fun.
Possible request, in the future on your runic alphabet...... please stick to one variant of glyphs. You've got variants running froom younger futhark to dalecarlian and I don't know WHERE the C you got came from since both of those above listed use the mirror ᛋ as S and not C. I almost broke my head trying to track it all down before I realized it was a web addy.

This was a great game, got stuck at points but always managed to think my way around the problem. Can't wait for episode 2!

Fyrestrom: In one email, there is a memo about a birthday party on the night of the email for the correct employee. There is also a picture of a birthday cake with a number written on it. Subtract the number on the cake from the email's date, and you have his birthday.

Stuck at Sector High: Level 01... can't seem to find the correct date to unlock the other files. I've tried calculating the date a couple of different ways, but alas it seems I'm not clever enough for this >...>

I did need help from the comments, but I got the hang of it. That first camera level really stumped me. I kept adding in a number that wasn't supposed to be in there. lol.
This was really awesome. I can't wait to play through Episode 2. <3

1st Camera level
“camera” – take note of the numbers with their corresponding letters.
“light off” “mode thermal” – 1 number through the window
“light off” “mode infrared” – 2 numbers in the middle
“light black” “mode normal” – 3 numbers on the right
“cat introduction.mp3” and enter the password
**HINT** the numbers = alphabetical order. The password is three words entered in the same order the numbers were found in **HINT**
Level 3
“sudo cat pobrian.mail” take note of the date and page.
Search the internet for Chicago Tribune archives and find the brand of the TV set which is the password
“camera” – Shows a bible verse with an instrument that makes a noise. That’s the password
The next lot requires 5 computers to be unlocked. They are pretty easy and self-explanatory.
Hope people find this useful.

Really clever game so far (: Something I recommend is adding support for tab-completion. I keep absent-mindedly hitting the tab to complete the file names XD

The text at the end seems to be using a variation of the Futhark alphabet.
Unfortunately, I can't decipher anything but the first word and the last one because there's like, 10 variations of Futhark.

For the first camera level, play with the camera settings until you obtain all the hidden numbers (3 sets). Arrange the numbers in the order you got them, left to right from the camera. These numbers are a simple cipher text that can be solved by converting it to its corresponding letters. A is 1, B is 2, and so on. Hope this helps for those who are stuck.

The scripture puzzle references verse with different translations depending on the bible used. I had to look them all up to solve that puzzle. I don't believe it came from the most common translation either, so many people are likely to get stuck.

The runes at the end are ancient Nordic-probably the Elder Futhark- but some of the letters are off.......for instance, the Uruz (N shaped glyph) is supposed to be facing the other way. same with the Berkana (angular B shape).

Loved the chicago tribune puzzle, but the power up ones where too easy. Still I am interested in a second episode to see the rest of the story.
The game needs a lot of clean up in the grammar department though as it is quite immersion breaking at points when immersion and atmosphere are the key elements to this.
Hey ! We totally know that, and we're not native english speakers, so we're just doing our best. Some people are going to help us fixing that, and we'll upload a fixed version soon! Thanks for the report.

Great game so far, the visuals and audio are appropriate for the type of game that it is, story is very interesting, and the gameplay and execution is very well done. 5/5. The only issue I have is that I'm stuck at the first camera section. I've found all the hidden numbers and decoded them to form a coherent sentence, but when I try to enter it it does not work. I've tried various forms of formatting, like using dashes between the letters/words, using underscores, using all caps, and combinations of those and I'm not sure what to try now. Any tips would be appreciated.

I realize now how much I use the tab autocomplete command in terminal, it keeps not working and I keep having to type in full names...

Stuck at the camera level, found the numbers, but I have no clue what to do with them other than putting random ones in as a password for the mp3 file and hoping they work.

nice. Took me awhile, but i finished it. A few hint in the commentary section did really help. Especially a notion to think outside of the box.

I just made an account on here so I could tell you that this is one of the best puzzle games I've ever played. 5/5 :)
