So I log in to Kong, and the game creators of Mu Complex were kind enough to send me an email letting me know EPISODE 2 IS FINALLY HERE!!! So far, I'm not disappointed. I'm a little stuck at the moment, but I'll figure it out, lol.

@Socran, I managed to see the message by looking at weird angles at my screen, without the need of editing anything else. Specifically, I could see it decently when standing up, and looking straight down at the screen. Might just be because I am playing on a laptop, but you might see if it works for you as well.

So, apparently one of the puzzles requires you to mess with the color levels of a picture. Asking around online confirms that's the case. Well, my monitor doesn't let me alter things like that, and I don't have any programs that let me do that (not gonna pirate Photoshop). Next time, could you please make sure the puzzles are solvable by everyone without downloading any third party programs, and/or do something about this episode to actually make it possible for those people? Having figured out HOW to solve the puzzle, I hate having to go look up the answer online anyway.

Loved playing the closed beta. Going to love playing it again on here. This is how Kongregate should be. I love games like this. Keep them coming. :)

Amazing, five stars! I truly love this series. I'd like to provide some feedback, though. The timed sections were a pain, and I really really really disliked the robot parts. They were just clunky to control, and a huge pain. I really loved the rest though, and this is a fantastic sequel to the original. Please make more, and please don't have any more bot puzzles in them!

This was EXCELLENT. Everything I wanted it to be and more. Definitely upped the difficulty from Episode 1. The first Episode took me maybe an hour to complete. It took me almost three to finish Episode 2. There are notes all over my desk, and pictures of ciphers in my phone. An evening well spent!

Is it bad that I have pages of notes about these games? I need to keep the solutions and passwords somewhere, plus, it's really interesting and I want to solve the puzzle behind the complex.

Not a usual one,and realy like it. But I can't use the "solve" command in piped riddle. I needed to write the numbers manually, but a lot of TONTIE gameing gives the result :D

kabbose you can include solve as well so the format is
challenge | x5987 | +7117 | solve
and that will enter everything

I took Muskar's advice and tried...
I want to reset my password. The computer name is fuhong and id is 62752c5f
sent it to e.bolan@mushigz05.mu
No Answer...

Format for fuhong: "I [...] reset [...] fuhong [...] [ID] [...]" (without quotation marks, and [...] means optional filler text)

I'm stuck at fuhong - I assume I have to use the external mail server combined with the information in the resetpass command. But I've tried all kinds of formats now. I just don't get it. Can anyone give me a hint?

Disappointingly, I can't get through FUHONG's computer. I am fairly sure your supposed to get to the website list, but when I try to send the "email" I always get no response, even after numerous attempts to format correctly. More clarity on what I am supposed to send would be nice.

I feel like an idiot for being stuck on the mainframe still--I know all the numbers I need (the 5 seen with the lights on and the 3 seen with the lights off) but I just cannot seem to get the right combination. Hints please? If you can't come up with a good hint, just go ahead and send me the answer, I'm getting fairly frustrated sitting here typing in different variations on the same thing.

@PresiMane switch the light system to dark and see the fingerprints. There are two buttons not shown and you have to use them too.

Okay, admitting I need help... SPOILERS ahead.
I've managed to unlock all the computers but am still not sure how to get into the mainframe? I also still haven't figured out what the "table.jpg" on Bobby Love's computer is pointing toward. Feeling stupid since I know the answer is staring me in the face.

Okay, I really can't seem to get the password for Oliver Riddle's PC...
I found out that the Movie is "Lolita" and the password is the name of his brother, so it should be a guy with the last name "Riddle". There is one, but his name "Nelson" won't work as the password -.- and now im stuck >_<

i think the bot doesn't doesn't reset properly, as in it doesn't show which direction it's facing at reset. No matter which direction it shows when you do "bot map" after a failed attempt, it's actually facing down. + so others can see.

I've broken into an ultra-secret government project that has been quarantined for 60 years, and have managed to uncover their detailed knowledge on creating a sentient AI and fully functional androids. Literally all the dreams of artificial intelligence have been effectively achieved by long-forgotten geniuses from the 60's. I'm almost at the end of my search, I only need one more security clearance, just one more, and and I can unravel the whole mystery. Deeply concealed within the data files of a mad mathematician, lies hidden the one remaining key to accessing the whole secret : a PDF reader.

The audio.mp3 file is a hidden puzzle. When you solve it you'll hear some more backstory. Definitely worth listening to, so put on your thinking cap and enjoy.

Fu Hong's new password is the same as Luck Tyson's in the first episode!! hehe
Awesome games, btw. I haven't felt this drawn into a game in a very very long time. Amazing atmosphere, great story, great depth….wow.

ugh... can someone say what's on the audio.mp3 file? lya won't let me move around anymore, so i'd have to restart the whole game to find out. according to 0z9tu, you gotta arrange those letters at the end of each email according to their timestamps, but of course the timestamps have to be in US format. i probably made a mistake when trying to convert them to YY/MM/DD, or to 24-hour time, so i could alphabetize the list. it's 50 emails, i really don't feel like replaying the whole game and reconverting fifty dates and times in fifty emails at 14 different computers just to find the content of audio.mp3. if someone from the US feels like doing it (because anyone from countries that use the civilized date and time format could end up making mistakes like i did and waste all that work), please share the contents!
btw, i didn't think about reversing my result until it was too late, so if anyone wants to try it would be GxGBZJkc0bjIw3pWz3VGydabN21bm34VileVHlhBIh4VGs6abe.

To solve Fred Morgan: You have to tip your computer screen back and you'll see "Clara" written faintly to the lower left of the photo. I'm on a laptop and was trying to decipher what the erased part said and happened to stumble on it. I'm sure this could also be done by editing the photo, but tilting worked just as well.

"Use keyboard and your brain to type in commands."
Are you sure I can't also use fingers? That would help, and save a lot of cleaning up afterwards.

THIS GAME. HDOJSHAGJ.
Seriously though, both Mu Complex games have been incredible. The puzzles are challenging but you have enough information to work them out every time. The story's amazing. Just. EEEEEEEE. And nice ending (:

With such ending - I wonder what kind of episode 3 could we have, if any.. a bit underwhelming, I mean, it was so obvious what will happen starting from mu episode one.. at least the video was a bit good.

I wonder how we were supposed to solve Fred Morgan (personally, I cheated and looked at a walkthrough)... it was quite obvious that the picture was a hint, but what were we actually supposed to do with it?
