It's a really, really good riddle site, IMO. My only complaint is that level 8 is a bad riddle and scares a lot of people away because they can't beat it. Hell, even after you see the solution, it's like "Huh?"

oh you were that Rubix lol
Yeah, pretty much. I'm guessing the bulk of drop-offs occur between that and level 12, which is actually pretty clever but completely out of place in terms of difficulty as a level 12.

edit: yeah, just solved level 10 on this one first try today...nopeeeee

[Reincarnate]

Can't remember what 12 is... onnnneeee sec.


Ooooh, this level. This is actually a really fun one!

I do remember a certain level... I wanna say 22 (the phrenology one) that completely stumped everyone for the longest fscking time. Nowadays it's such a secondnature thing to check for on riddles like that, lol.

[Reincarnate]

Also my old Level 82 is still in here

http://zestriddle.ovh.org/z**********r/thegame/

where *****'s represents the stuff that becomes part of the URL after level 72.

Was removed from the original game because it was too large (it's a 5-parter) and quite hard. If you like cryptography style riddles, you'll love this one. The last stage is a toughie though. Worked better as a bonus level. Give it a shot!
(and it's got a bit of a story... if you could call it that)

[VisD]

I solved it as the old level 82 haha. Yeah, it's really cool - one of the more fun exodus levels. Actually I found the last bit the hardest since I had prior knowledge of all the codes before that one, but the last bit just completely stumped me for the longest time.


I haven't solved the new 82, however. It looked hard as hell

[Reincarnate]

Ahhh I miss Zest ;-;

That feeling of on the really hard ones

[DarknessXoXLight]

Stayed up way too late working on this. Kind of stuck on 39. I know what needs to be done just ... dunno lmfao.

[popsicle_3000]

hmmm. i'm on #5. can you get far in this without knowing anything about coding, etc..?

[VisD]

Yeah, you can. Fairly far, i guess. Well, a lot further than most other riddles of this kind - I'm on 36 and so far there hasn't been much technical knowledge required.

Speaking of 36, someone drop me a hint? I've seen the common thread of the lines of 'code' in the picture and arranged them in the manner suggested, and appear to get something close in the way of an answer through a method on one of the earlier levels, but no dice. This riddle has shown a propensity for recycling ideas from earlier levels so far but it's not working, so...hint plz

Arranged A-F, tried cycling to line up the 1's to see what is spelled out, nothing interesting yet.

"Once you have the right order, you should be looking at the 1's that will spell out your answer."

I need help on 39. This redirecting thing is confusing me.

EDIT: Now it's -3 giving me troubles. :S

[VisD]

Oh wow, I was doing exactly that, just completely missed out on one letter lol dumb

Onward

edit: All done with the first 40 levels now. The ending was a tad anticlimatic though considering it

rips off notpr0n

For those of you with time on your hands:

This one recently came back up, and it's an excellent one, on par with zest. It gets hard quite quickly though.

[TC_Halogen]

Bump. If you get stuck on NotFFRon for any reason, you could play this too.

[TC_Halogen]

double posting because I got stuck on NotFFRon and now am working on this on stream from start to as far as I can go - should be interesting because I only made it to 25 last time apparently; let's see how far I get this time.

[AlexDest]

Went through this again and am now stuck on 34.

EDIT: Never mind, found out exactly what to do once I read the title of the level, lmao.

EDIT: Stuck at 39.
