I made this, I don't really want to make it too easy, but there's a Caesar Cipher and a different cipher I think it's called a Vignette and then it'll be really easy to figure out from there. Fun times! Okay maybe not really easy, prolly super hard

And this is in English by the way, please don't strike me down 🙏🏽

For context, my friend is going to a historically based conference. PacMUN

These codes are supposed to hint at a historical topic. I'm unsure what it is encrypted in and I'm pretty new to code breaking, but it seemed interesting. I don't have a plaintext translation, but could anyone help me figure this out? I've tried a lot of the common ciphers, but no luck. Not sure if the website will stay up.

So this is my language I wrote and I want to test reddit to see if they can crack it. I gave punctuation to make it easier to decipher but it's normally not written with it. I also hope this is the right subreddit for this lol. Good luck!

This is a clock from Bo3 on the wall. I noticed there are white and red dots in it. This is the only clock that ive seen like this. I think it might be brallie but im not sure becuase it didnt make any sense. If there is someone who is better at braillie can you transcribe it for me and or if anyone recognizes it as something else can you tell me what it is so i can try to decipher it.

Hello,

I’ve been stuck on a specific cipher for a while. I’ve tried many methods to try to decrypt it, but of no avail. I’m not entirely sure which cipher was even used to encode it. It would be of great help if someone helped me decode it, or at the very least, identified which cipher was used.

The following encoded text was found in the description of a video under a creator on YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/@Unorthodox_Kitten The encoded text has since been removed from the description of the video, so unfortunately I don’t have any hints or flavor text that might have been included. I am also unsure which video it was under, as the cipher text was removed months ago.

If it helps, the last key to a previous cipher of theirs was interpretdevouriterate, and located at the end of this cipher was a short instance of random numbers, being 24A5521. Maybe these will help? Also the random uppercase letters pose no significance, as many of their descriptions contain random uppercase letters.

(Not the cipher, just following the rules) - V sbyybjrq gur ehyrf

I think i might have some errors in it if youll see any please correct it. "8/10, 5/7, 24/26, 14/16, 20/22, 7/9, 0/2, 21/23, 4/6, 1/3, 4/6, 4/6, 13/15, 0/2, 1/3, 11/13, 4/6, 20/22, 14/16, 19/21, 14/16, 11/13, 21/23, 4/6, 20/22, 7/9, 8/10, 19/21, 2/4, 14/16, 13/15, 6/8, 17/19, 0/2, 20/22, 19/21"

Hey there,

Every once in a while, Blizzard Entertainment creates a massive puzzle for it's World of Warcraft player base. The most recent puzzle has been solved in one language but not the others and is believed to be a cipher. I am here for your help.

The puzzle is available in many languages. In English it is

SGHO EIUII ABD MOO NK GHN, EDNY, DL LLSE

Here it is in every other language.

It was solved because the Chinese Character translation was simply written in reverse.

The solution was

Undying Orc Love Lights Up Body, Mind and Soul.

Although the solution has been found for the puzzle, the game developers state that the method of solving the english solution still hasn't been found.

The last other possibility I have to share is this other clue with an obvious looking key at the bottom.

JYPFFQVY

Frequency analysis led me to believe these might have been anagrams. But I've tried finding certain words from the solution in other languages, however, it doesn't work across every language.

Knowing the cipher text in every language has varying character frequency, length, yet similar spacing, what might this cipher be?

Found from an online purchase, says “Now you’ve finally found me. What now?” On the back

Codes Level I : TфHHл тлѓ шиф гледај Level II : 710н62326V 323 H10E10H 3723 Level III : љ237 Б3д 710 и19 2и10 2џ 23 3ти1010 Level IV : и1814т3 о18у 623x10 k23љ 3231114т

Hints: capital/lowercase letters do not mean anything. Each level keeps the same rules as the last The only numbers used are 1-26

I’ll post the solution after good luck everyone

Hey everyone!

Let me pre-amble with the fact that I am by no means a code breaker, cryptoanalyst, or otherwise well-versed in cryptography. Although, I've always liked puzzles. So please call me out and correct me if I get any of the jargon incorrect. I am a silly Python programmer that does roleplaying.

This goes a bit further than a puzzle. For a roleplay campaign between multiple persons and teams, I wanted to create a cipher that made encrypted communication between teams and person possible.

I did have a few requirements:

1. Pen & paper capable (with the help of mechanical aids if needed - I use rotating disks)
2. Polyalphabetical
3. Alphanumerical and added basic punctuation
4. Vector initialization by shifting the alphabet
5. Variable key length
6. Key dependent shifting

Due to the alphanumerical requirement, the encrypted message has to be written down as numbers.

I was inspired by the Vigenére Cipher and the Enigma machine, and thus far no one in our roleplay has been able to figure it out how to break it yet. And that's why I'm here. As far as I am aware it is vulnerable to frequency analysis, but that depends on the length of the key and is not really a concern for short messages.

So I have prepared a significant message for you code breakers out here:

A few hints:

• The source text is in English
• The shifts are both left and right
• No vector initialization has been performed in this instance. Here is the starting state of the alphabet, with the last character being a whitespace character indicated as SPC, but is a normal space: 0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_{|}~SPC

Feel free to ask if you need some more hints!

#Cipher One

Plaintext Code: UJQ XGJXDIYEXYGXGJZAE. UJQXKXDIYEKYOJZAE. UZAE. SGK JQ SOO ITSYGJQNJAJMNR

Everything is in superscript except for XGJXDIY, which is in subscript, and JAJMNR, which is normal text. Everything has strikethrough applied to it except for XGJXDIY. Image of the code's formatting, just in case the formatting is relevant at all.

A recreation of the page it was on can be accessed here. Here is all the info we have:

1. "It's not real It's not real It's not real It's not real It's not real It's not real It's not real It's not real It's not real" hidden on the page in black (highlight to see).
2. Gas mask image taken from Deviantart, filename "Eyes.jpg".
3. Background music, IIRC it was a reversed version of the Ikana Canyon theme from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. (note: the link above doesn't have the background music, likely due to some error with how web archive works)
4. Parts of the cipher had links to hidden documents on top. (note: I don't think this is reflected within the web archive link above)

• JAJM lead to "FSZTKU.txt", which read "You didn't think I was done with you. Did you? You are done playing when I say you are done playing."
• N lead to "TheLie.txt", which read "This is just a dream." Password protected by password "BEN"
• R lead to "TheTruth.txt", which read "Wake up. You have to wake up." Password protected by password "BEN".

5. After 1.5 hours, page updated with some "Latest News".

• "You are waking up now. 13 minutes."
• "You are waking up now. 5 minutes."
• "Pulling the plug."

6. Immediately after the last message appeared, the page reverted to something else.

Cipher Two

Plaintext Code: 01110 00100000 01010010 01100001 01110111 01110110 00100000 01101001 01100110 00100000 01100011 01101100 01101001 01111001 01101010

Code Translated: Rawv if cliyj

It appeared in the spectrogram at the beginning of this video. Here is all the info we have:

1. Came with a second spectrogram binary code that translated to "You will be given".
2. Both sets of binary are missing digits that must be re-inserted. The first is missing three digits from the beginning, and the second is missing two from the end. By inserting “11” at the end of the second, the final letter of the resulting Vigenere becomes “o” instead of “k”, allowing a complete translation with a key of “abel”.
3. The first code (the one we're looking to solve) can be put into a monoalphabetic brute-forcing tool to produce "many of those" if you tweak the settings quite a bit, but I'm unsure that's the actual solution.

Cipher Three

Plaintext Code: BJWHS4TLNMQGU4TNNZTSA4TBOVWGOIDJM5XG22RAO5VWO5T2EBUGS===

Code Translated: lyrkk jrmng raulg ignmj wkgvz hi

It appeared in on-screen text in this video. Here is all the info we have:

1. Spectrogram playing at the same time this code appeared translated to "FOR YOUR SAFETY".
2. It's suspected to be either Beaufort Cipher or Enigma Cipher. No we don't have anything that could give us context for the latter.

Cipher Four

Plaintext Code: 101000101101001010101010000100100011001010011010000001001101001000101010100000101010101000000100010000100101101000000100000100100100001000100010000001000001101001100010000001000001101000100010100010100000010010011010100010100110101000000100000100100100101000110010110010100000010001011010100000100010101011010010

Code Translated: KTAZ SLRH VQY QDX FX DBH ZB UATK YLHUKE

The page it appeared on is no longer accessible and was not archived. Here is all the other info we have:

1. If you reverse the word order, using a key of "jadusab" gives you "PLEASE TRTH FJ DAY FU WLX UHY PRZH JKAW", but it's unknown if the presence of suspicious words here means anything.

Cipher Five

Plaintext Code:

• oha smnup frxyk al lbefr
• (Y)O V DULE MLHNSDHDWF
• zia cvhu mu nb
• cyba zc zuen ybxc?

(Note: the "(Y)" is because some people claim to see a Y there, but some claim they don't see a Y)

This code appears in separated blocks in the spectrogram of this video. Here is all the info we have:

1. It is unknown if the blocks are connected/related, or if they're all separate codes hence why I've formatted them that way.

And that's it. That's all the codes I'm looking for help with. All of these codes should resolve into English, and will likely be vague and ominous in nature. Thanks!

This algorithm is called Daedalus

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daedalus

Daedalus created the Labyrinth on Crete, in which the Minotaur was kept.

This algorithm was written in two days. Surely it can be defeated in less time it took to write it.

Here, I'll share the code it takes to use it so you can try smashing against the stack too.

The hint is: It is seeded. Another hint: (key + 0x00) cannot decrypt. Another hint: (key + variation) cannot decrypt.

Daedalus Source code

https://github.com/seanlum/finesse/blob/main/finesse/Daedalus.py

Getting Daedalus

$ git clone git@github.com:seanlum/finesse.git
$ cd finesse
$ python3
>>> from finesse import Daedalus

Using Daedalus

key = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
k = (key).encode('utf-8')
file = io.open('reddit-challenge.webp', 'rb')
p = file.read()
encrypted_file = io.open('reddit-challenge.bin','rb')
encrypted_contents = encrypted_file.read()
from finesse import Daedalus
decrypted_content = Daedalus.Decrypt(encrypted_contents, key)
if p == decrypted_content:

So my friend sent me this image.

I really don't know what this means, from what I could make from the handwriting is \"BslaSh+dot+ᛞ\"

The pluses made me think it was some kind of line of code but I really don't know enough about that kinda stuff to be sure. He said he "learned from the zodiac killer" (I know sounds bad but trust me he's not a killer) he called it "Tetrahedron encoding" if you find anything just DM me.

It really is something simple, very simple steps, but I don't remember. The plaintext is just English, no characters, well aside from just spaces ig. The blocks are variable-sized and separated by the slashes, always. Every single block is a word.
