I’m not going to have time to work on all of these before the final release. So far I have solved the Carmen Sandiego one and the pentagon one. I have solved the puzzle of the ents and wordle but not the passphrase. I would be happy to pass those on to someone. I would like to see someone from these boards get the final.

How were you able to get to the puzzles without the passphrase? Do you have the book? |

The puzzles help you get the passphrase. I couldnt complete the ent one or wordle one but I could help someone a little bit with those
