This all started with a VCR code that leads players into the Farmhouse. Once inside images were scattered around the room. From a Zepher code on the table to Venona on the walls players rushed to try and gather all the bits of intel while under siege from continuous battle-royale fire.
Fans do know that Venona is a code type used toundermine Russian intelligence missions. The entire code system results around using a combination of numbers and letters. By finding the appropriate number sequences players are able to find specific words that can be used to discover future steps in the puzzles. This type of code would help find secret codes that connect to the grids.
The grids seem to be used tooverlay theWarzonemapoffering players a key based on location. By using each code word, ZEPHRY for example, players can shift the letters and figure out which letters should be avoided and which can still be used. This becomes key in decoding the location-based cipher and finding the true message hidden within the images.
From looking through the files there quickly appears to be five distinct puzzles available. Chem 1 and 2 each follow a chemistry-based theory which means down several chemicals into their letter form. These letters then are used as command sequences, or so fans are theorizing. The Nix Charge cipher seems to be numeric in composition forcing players to complete a sequence using scrambled clues from the NIXSTACk cipher. This takes a look at something called a “Nixie Tube” which could contain the final sequence for a radio broadcast.
Each hint and clue is covered in red footnotes directing fans towards more information. Around half-way through investigating themain teaser website updatedcrossing out the first day.
