Now available: Ruckingenur II, the latest game in my Games for Engineers series!
In the style of the first Ruckingenur, Ruckingenur II is a game of “rock and roll” reverse engineering of electrical circuits. Unlike the first Ruckingenur, Ruckingenur II is a full game, complete with multiple levels, a soundtrack, and live-action video sequences. Help can be found inside the game. Download link below!

It’s worth mentioning that this requires Windows (or something compatible) to play, along with the .NET 2.0 Framework. You should also have the sound on!
/!\Spoiler/!\ Awesome game,i’ve passed first 3 levels in like..10 min and now im out of time to finish understanding that damn bomb…nice game,in line with the greatest just like uplink,we love game out of the common,congrats!
well ive blown myself up 20 times so far lol
It took me about 7 tries to beat the bomb at the end, not counting accidentally pulsing the detonator because my mouse jumped and grabbed the wrong point. So… Yeah, amazing game. I can’t wait for more.
Thanks for the comments! If you liked Ruckingenur II, I’d suggest giving Manufactoid a try – it’s about factory automation, and is my second favorite of the "Games for Engineers" games.
I need more. I’m already finished.
Congrats You have finished episode 1….. ohhhh where is 2
(Ruckingenur II): This is a brilliant game! Well done! If there was some sort of mission-builder, I’d already be making challenges for my friends.
Great game! Id wish in real life everything had such a debug pin…
I get a crash in the first mission if I put the debug interface on the terminal between the left chip and the buzzer and click on the debug interface area…
plaes: I’ve never fooled around with Mono, but it should be feasible (I’m using SDL). I’ll check it out when I get home. DrV: Don’t do that then! =P
vector1: I tried running it on a Server 2008 install and hit the same problem. To the best of my knowledge, it’s a problem with SDL.NET, but I wasn’t able to find much. I’ll look into it further. I’m not sure if it also happens on 32 bit operating systems. Thanks for the heads up!
Cool game! That bomb totally stressed me out but I managed to figure it out after a while. I ran the game through Wine. Just installed mono for windows and then it ran just fine.
Great game! Just beat it twice. Can’t wait for the next episode.
MUAHAHA Relly cool game, thank you (the riddles were nice, but nothin’ too difficult :-D)
AWESOME Game ! Zach: I’m not a big game player, but that’s the BEST game I’ve ever played ! Really. Very original, a bit stressful with the bomb 🙂 It reminds me a bit that game called “Life & Death” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_&_Death) which was a medical computer game. Now Zach, we are definitely waiting for the next episodes 🙂 Thanks ! — Fabien
thats awesome! (ran it with vmware because windows xp x64 didn’t let me play) how can i donate xD
Lol im stuck on mission 3 there a guide?
error. failed to initialize. any help
Downloaded and installed fine, but when I tried to execute the Start Menu shortcut, I immediately get an error: RuckingenurTwo.exe – Unable To Locate Component This application has failed to start because mscoree.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. Already tried to install again – same issue. Will try reboot next. Any suggestions?
Brendan and Faust: Try installing / reinstalling the .NET 2.0 framework – there’s a link to it above, after the download link for the game. The game has also been known to crash on 64 bit operating systems.
.Net 2.0, really? I’ll try getting this to run in wine, but my hopes are not high.
hey zach maybe you can help me out with ruckingenur part 1. the window size is too small and i cant all of the screen. i tried maximizing but no luck, any help would be great…
Sparr: If you scroll up to PRJ’s comment, he claims that it ran fine in wine. Good luck? Danny: Try increasing your desktop resolution? Not quite sure what you mean.
posted screens on part 1..
I’m craving for a linux version …
Got it to run with Wine and Mono. Really nice ! But a little bit short :p
Great game. Cann’t wait for the next one.
just finished it. best SE/EE game ever! great style & play! we need Ruckingenur III 😛
This is the best game, ever! What a fun challenge! I’d pay money for computer games like this. What kind of schedule do you have for new episodes? I hope it’s as often as possible, because I’m absolutely hooked! Excellent work.
I almost jumped out of my chair the first time I disarmed the bomb. I was ecstatic. I humbly await the "RuckII: Ep. 2" arrival.
This game is awesome. I would absolutely have paid for it. I am eagerly waiting the next installment; perhaps a level editor is in order (please!) 🙂
Good idea, but far too less challenge (really obvious solutions), beat the whole game in like 10 minutes (got blown up a few times though).
Great Game… i want to play the next episode!!!
great game – looking forward to III
Very good. Was a lot of fun, for 15minutes.
Very good game! I’m an economist and I could find out the challenges within 10 minutes each. Only bug: no local keyboard support. I’m typing AZERTY and the output in the game is always QUERTY
I enjoyed the game alot, I just wish there were more levels.
You might consider putting in some sort of disclaimer or warning so people don’t try to “override voltages” in the real world.
the BEST game ever
Nice game, pity it was so short though. The last level with the bomb actually took a small amount of thinking (the rest were kind of obvious, but still fun) Can’t wait for v 3 (or a level editor so people can make there own)
Thanks for these great games. I really enjoy it 🙂 Greats from Portugal
This is awesome. My only annoyance: Numpad entry does not work. I have a blank keyboard and I NEVER use the numbers above the letter portion of the keyboard, but I can 10-key (with letters with my left hand) very quickly. I just can’t type fast enough to win! Enable numpad entry and I’ll beat a record ;D
Guess my name 😉
Hey, I just wanted to say that this was a really fun game. I’ve never played anything like it. Just a shame it’s so short! I hope you do more missions soon.
What can I say… VERI NICE GAME!!!! I will wait for the next
hey.. great game. I like it. i need ~60min to complete all 4 levels. Hope next episode coming soon. ah.. and for me that game running fine under Debian Linux and wine with mono installed. good job zach
This game is amazing. The only thing that would make it better would be more levels. Oh well, I can’t wait for the next episode.
great game! cant wait for the next episode!!
Excellent game, thanks!
Awesom game, I love it!!!!!!! Please keep going man,I’m waiting for another episode with a lot of new levels 😉 Thanks for all the work you put in these games.
Awesome! A bit short and easy for me though. Eagerly waiting for new episode!
I am on level 2. Can someone let me know if the red cross on the handle of the rifle (just above and to the right of the trigger) means anything? I can’t get anything to work, but seems odd that it’s there. Thanks.
@R4NDOM no the red cross is not important to complete this level. more important is the finger print reader
I can confirm this crashes on 64-bit vista. Wine is not an option for me. I’ve installed .net 3.5 (2.0 claims it won’t work on Vista). What else can I try?
Awesome game! Needs more levels, but still very very fun.
I actually finished this first then went to episode one. Both are great games and I’m eagerly awaiting episode 3. I did encounter one small bug in this one (R II) in the last mission. If I end up blowing myself up and then relaunch the mission, sometimes I am unable to move the probes and I need to relaunch the mission to reactivate them. The time to deactivate the bomb is a little bit tight if you are using a laptop joystick (wee button in centre of keyboard) as it is hard to move and select but it can be done with a normal external mouse ok. Sorry if that’s a little vague but I don’t want to give the game away and I hope those who have done it know what I mean. Thoroughly enjoyable game though. Many thanks for publishing it for us.
I LOVE the game, just the kind of game i needed to exercise my mind after playing too much cod4. Completed it no probs, know exactly what you mean David, but without spoiling it for people, i found another way to defuse the bomb where you don’t need to rush as much 🙂 Can’t wait for more. YOUR A LEGEND!!! Im now in the process of playing manufactoid 🙂
Fantastic game!!! The actor playing in the cutscene is ready for the Oscars… lol
Very nice. But very short. Only the last mission took several trys. I wasn’t fast enough 😉 I installed it on an Vista 32Bit version. It ran, but sometimes the programm crashes. Don’t know why. Give us more missions!!!!!
Game doesnt start and crashes at Windows XP PRO 64bit how to fix it?
WONDERFULL!!!! loved it 🙂 Please continue, or publish the source so that we can make new levels 🙂 4 is just NOT ENOUGH 😛 😛 (And make some option to remove the nag movies) Greetz from Portugal Keep up the good work
This game was awesome, i can’t wait for more levels. I thought it would be kind of cool if you could some how incorporate soldering wires or other stuff like that, and a level editor would be awesome. I loved the videos before each mission, although a way to skip them would be nice *had to watch the bomb one a few times* This is a n00b question but i can’t help but ask, is there really something like the “hypermeter” though, where you can see the values of the registers on chips? Anyways, the games on this site are awesome, playing silicon foundry right now =p
There’s a protocol called JTAG that’s used for testing, debugging, and programming IC chips. That, along with protocols like I2C that allow you to read and write control registers, served as the inspiration for the debug interface.
AWESOME GAME – first three levels were fun, the last one took me forever, but so rewarding once i got it!!
Absolutely fantastic game. Perfectly captures the spirit of reverse engineering. keep up the good work!
I had more fun playing this game than anything I’ve played in a long while! Thanks a ton! I’m going to try the first installment of the game and Manufatoid. Makes me want to buckle down and get more proficient with C#.
Really, this game was a blast. Out of curiosity, what inspired you to make this? How long did it take? Anything specifically difficult in making it?
Zed: Inspiration? I’m not sure. One of what I consider to be the core mechanics of Ruckingenur, the debug register system, is something that I came up with a long time ago, probably from learning about something similar with electronics or computers. I vaguely remember coding up a game prototype in Visual Basic years ago that involved hacking an electronic sign and a microwave by writing to registers. Between another game prototype and Ruckingenur I, I was able to refine the mechanics a bit, resulting in Ruckingenur II. When I finally got down to working on Ruckingenur II, it took me about two months. I created a bit more content than you can see in R2E1, and meandered a little bit during the whole creation process. The hardest part of making R2 was figuring out how to end the game. As I’ve stated elsewhere, I planned for and designed more levels than are featured, but failed to make the last three what I wanted. After struggling with them for at least two weeks, I figured out the solution to my problem – release what I had finished up to that point as Episode One, see how it went over, and then if deemed a success (holy crap yes!) make more. I’m also not very good at art or acting, but those were slightly mitigated by using super-pixelated art and putting captions on the videos instead of talking.
Level one keep craching when pressing on the screen to edit the register. But I manage to finish the game 😛 Pretty Neat
I’m not sure if this is a good thing, but I just finished it in under half an hour… with no knowledge of circuitry or really how any of the chips work xD Now, admittedly the town was blown up 4-7 times, but hey! They should have gotten a professional! The main reason I found it easy in the end was that I realized how to reset the timer on the bomb – that felt like a glitch. Like ZeXr0 I had it crash on level one when I clicked on the screen to edit the registers. I’m on 32 bit Vista Home Premium, .Net 3.0 I believe.
The Best GAME EVER… Make me want to learn about how circuitry and chips work Can’t wait for more mission lol
Thanks for the info. I look forward to the next game. Would be cool to see some recording of statistics so you can compare with friends. (Time until completion, failed attempts, etc.)
Game is brilliant! Thanks from Spain.
BUG – can’t use probes on respawn after the bomb goes off SYSTEM – XP service pack 3, all updates, Logitech TrackMan Wheel (trackball) FIX – hit ESCAPE back to mission select & reenter bomb level and it works Great game, reminds me of the old C64/Amiga days! 🙂
can someone give me a hint and mission 4 i know it has something to do with the pulseator thing but confused on the rest
How do you beat the decoder? The third mission
What package should I apt-get to open a .exe file?
Awesome game! I’m stuck on mission 2, though. I can get read the code for a thumbprint that would be accepted, but I can’t figure out how to change one, since the registers are all read-only.
I think if you run a pulse through one of the contacts it changes the value to RW so you can write the needed value. To answer the above questions about Mission 2. Now if someone could help me with mission 3 🙁
I actually managed to work through mission 2 and 3 on my own without looking back here again. 🙂 3 ends up being fairly simple. From the paper copy of the encrypted message, you can see it came on a certain date. You can also see the encryption chip on the receiver has a certain date set on it…
Great work. i lost at least 16 hours of work this week due to your various games. I think this one has a great feel, including the pixelated movies and such.
OK, I desperately need a hint on mission 4… I can get the timer to reset itself, and I can see where I need to go to enter the keycodes, but the challenge code is set to all 0s! How do I get it to accept responses?
for mission 3 you have to change the number to the number on the paper then you type whats on the paper
for mission 4 you have to change the number under the reset to 0000000000 and the challenge code appears then typein the coorisponding code uuse the pulsator to reset the timer on rmdc1
level editor / creator PLEASE! You could have a whole section of approved plug in levels 🙂 I know my wallet is ready to open. This game is soo much fun.. Donations?
Great game. I spent the better part of a chemistry lecture beating it. I think it really represents what electronics and reverse engineering is about. I need Episode 2! NOW! (just kidding, not really)
For those having problems with the game crashing. For me the issue was that there was no sound device. I run XP 64bit and Vista Home 32bit in virtual machines and hadn’t installed a sound device yet. Once I installed one it worked on Vista 32bit (still crashed on XP 64bit). Hope this helps a little.
Get me Macgyver on the phone NOW!!! 🙂 Awesome game … Well done!!
Thank you very much for this very cool game 🙂 You should really think about putting a Paypal donations button on your webpage. I wouldn’t mind spending some bucks on this and I’m pretty sure some of the others are thinking the same way 🙂
Geez! I Loved it! I will admit it took my about 2 1/2 hours to do – mostly because of #3. I kept entering in 2009 by mistake! Duh!
I am on level 3 and I’ve decrypted the messafe, numerous times, but it doesn’t end the level. Is there more to te message than the nuetron bomb thing???
Thanks for the game just got pasted the bomb. Although I blew up about 30 times. Totally fun game. I can’t wait for the next episode!!!!!!!!! Is there a mailing list I can get on to notify when/if it comes out. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
Ivan: There’s a section under the tag-map with a button that says something about subscribing to a newsletter. Click that!
Great little game, the bomb was really stressfull 😀
Holy cow! This game is awesome. I got last level on the fourth or fifth try. Excellent work on this game, absolutely excellent. I’m going to send it out to my family. MORE LEVELS PLEASE!
Somebody set up us the bomb. This brings back good memories from the days of Commodore 64 gaming. That’s a good thing.
Great idea, oldschool feeling – that 8bit videos 😀 However, there is still no challenge… like 30 minutes of fun, if you bother to replay the missions just to see how fast you can do it 🙂 Anyway I’m waiting for more episodes 🙂
Best game ever, seriously.
I had init problems with .Net 2.0 linked above, with .Net 3.5 works fine
Great game, can’t seem to do the bomb. Maybe I’m just not fast enough. Oh well, I still think it’s a great game. Can’t wait to see the next. Just one thing. Please, no time limit style challenges. They make for a good game, but can be Incredibly Infuriating. But still, can’t wait. Keep up the good work.
This is PURE GENIUS! I can’t wait for more!
If you liked this, check out the level editor. You can build your own levels. It requires some simple scripting, but that’s paltry to the satisfaction one gets from stumping your friends with your own levels. And even better then that, Zach plans on coming out with a community edition, with user built levels. Can’t wait.
The game crashes always I try to load mission 2 =(
Love this game. Even if i do not know anything about electrics and this stuff i managed to beat the first level XD The only problem i got was that the game windows was to big for my 1024×768 notebook display. Didn’t found a option or anything similiar to make it little bit smaller.
Great game….. Stuck at the bomb though…. =þ
OK, figured it out! XD
again, awesome game!!! GREAT WORK… Can’t wait for episode 2!
Thank you
any way to get it to work on vista ultimate 64? just insto crash 🙁
This needs WAY WAY !WAY! better instructions. I dont understand anything, but i got level 1 to work, yeah, ONE!
AWESOME!!!!
got it in half an hour all by my own and want more episodes!!!!
we need moar~
I’ve already finished!
I need more!
I still wonder why most Americans won’t support the Numpad Keys?
lol i feel worthless…i figured out missions 1-3 really easily…i couldnt figure the bomb out for anything…i know how to do it now but i didnt do it on my own =( lol this sucks! loved the game though
Umm.. How do I connect the debug pin? I’ve tried putting it everywhere (yes, the red dot) and/or clicking the screen but nothing comes up or the game crashes.
Nevermind – all levels were almost trivial to solve once i knew you had to place the pins on the pads. Very nice game!
Yeah, I’m getting the crash on 64-bit Vista. Damn, the first episode was fun, too.
someone could send me the solution of mission 3 for e-mail. because it’s the only one that can do No, the first and second I did in less than 10 minutes but the third is a day that I try but I can’t
The messages are encrypted with a daily key. In other words, if I type in the same thing on two different days, they will come out totally different. The intercepted message wasn’t sent on the current day, so figure out how to make the thing _think_ it’s the day it was sent.
the date is dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy? 🙂
Why would that make a difference? All you have to do is put it in, in the same format as the current date.
I just finished the game. at first I didn’t get how the game works, but after I found out I rushed trough level 1 and 2. level 3 was a little bit harder because the machine changed the putten in date back to the normal date the whole time. And the bomb… that one was really hard. I blew my self up 7 times before finding out how to get the challenge code and after that I blew myself up 8 times, because of my slow computer. and the 16th time I was quick enough to save myself, luckilly.
I’m downloading the installer, minding my own buisness, and them when I go to launch- BLAM! Right in my face, I get an error report claiming the installer is corrupt or incomplete.
HeeEEeeEELLP!
Arcania: The source file is not corrupted, so try downloading again.
Nvm. The download shorted out, and for whatever reason it told me it was done.
(God, this sounds retarded) Having trouble with level 2. please keep in mind that I am NOT an engineer. I know the ‘password’ fingerprints’ codes, and I know my fingerprint’s code. yet, I am unable to program it into anything, as all the values for the rifle controller are read-only. What am I doing wrong?
i need a help with a mission 3 i dont known how to set diferent date. please help thank you
Arcania: You need to pulse one of the contacts. I won’t say which one.
zany: There is a chip that has only one register, which conatins the current date. Use the serial tap on your board to access it and change the date.
is episode 2 on the way? I haven’t heart about it a long time…
What’s the name of the victory song? It’s awfully catchy.
Holy crap.
No any idea what I were doing yet still beat it.
Only that bomb was proving hard, mainly because at first you only had limited time to fck around.
Then I figured out resetting it, which greatly aids in trying different stuff.
If you’re having trouble getting the game to run on 64-bit windows, try running the CorFlags utility on it with the /32BIT+ option. It seems that .NET is using the 64-bit CLR by default on the executable and throwing a BadImageFormatException when it runs into the 32-bit SdlDotNet library, probably because it uses P/Invoke and such.
This game is AWESOME
Looked over at the comments after finishing. This was fun, but it didn’t last very long. I thought I was going to have a lot of trouble on the bomb level, but I got that after two tries. I’m having way more trouble on KOHCTPYKTOP since I have NO electrical / hardware knowledge. I should go comment over there as well. Nonetheless. The window size caused a few minor problems but was fixable. A LOT easier to pick up then some of the other games. Nonetheless, well done. I’ll try and rate and/or constructively criticise as I complete each game, though I’ll probably get some hangups on those that require background knowledge, since I’m trying to avoid looking at the comments, as they spoil a LOT.
Runs nice on Linux (wine + mono24 cca 500MB of wasted HDD space 🙁 )
There are some glitches, thought…
a) canceling the 4th level with ESC, waíting >10 seconds and then clicking “exit” “wins” the round
b) restarting 4th level sometimes fails (no probes and game is unresponsive to clicking, after final blow the game crashes)
ps: having no keys on “numeric pad” sucks… I cannot type fast enough on those in line (and I’ve to hold SHIFT on czech keyboard layout)
=> i’ve installed package “xmacro” and wrote 1 macro (consists of “sleep 4” and “xmacroplay-keys”) per challenge and then simply executed it
Can you please enable numpad AND/OR make linux version? Thanks…
It works nearly flawlessly with mono+libmono-winforms (no Wine required to play)
BUT because of the unwise keystrokes handling I cannot use *ANY* numeric keys
numpad – no response, top row of keys – no response (even if combined with modifiers like alt, ralt, shift, control or winkey)
When I try to run it (I’m in Windows Vistax64), It tells me there’s something wrong and shuts down without an error message. To fix it, I tried installing the NET framework, but it was already on my machine. Then I tried downloading ruckingenur 2 again but it still didn’t work. I also tried compatability mode…but for some reason Ruckingenur CE works?! Please tell me what is wrong!
Leon: I’ve just uploaded a new installer that should work in x64 – the old one didn’t. You’ll need to run as Administrator if you don’t have write access to Program Files, as this game writes your save data to a file in the same directory as the game EXE.
(I recently switched from 32-bit Windows XP to 64-bit Windows 7 and hit all the problems that everyone else hit. Whoops!)
Thanks a lot, loser.
I accidentally installed your game to e:\Game, the root of my games directory. So I had to uninstall it. But your uninstaller DELETED EVERY FRIGGING THING IN THE DIRECTORY, except for some Steam files it apparently could not delete, as Steam was running. There goes my history of gaming. YOU REALLY CAN DO SOME PRETTY GOOD CODE, MAN! Now my games directory is practically empty. Thank your god I wasn’t just about to beat ADOM or I’d have ripped your guts out.
Anyway, guess I won’t ever finish Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis now. Almost finished it once, ten years ago, then got stuck, and was about to play all the way back to the point where I got stuck, but then you showed up. You really do suck.
You really should stop bitching at the author. Who really installs all their games into one directory anyway? Asking for trouble.
Hey, no problem. Perhaps I don’t tell anyone about this, so they will lose their files too. Good idea! And yes, I know of experience that many people keep their games in one directory.
The bitching was deserved, as Zach’s irresponsibility damaged others. Had this been an application instead of a game, serious damage would have been done. (“Whine whine, who really installs all their programs under C:\Program Files anyway?”) However, the threat of violence was not serious and should be disregarded.
Tuukka: I’m sorry that you had to be the first person to encounter this. I would suggest trying an undelete program to see if you can recover some of your save files. It looks like there’s a free one available at http://www.officerecovery.com/, although I’ve never used it before.
Here’s the technical explanation of what happened:
I use the NSIS installer engine to build my installers, using an installation script that I’ve had for a while (and found on the NSIS website). It turns out that the Uninstall selection is simply RMDir /r “$INSTDIR”, which would indeed cause the problem you’ve encountered.
The files are too corrupted for the games to work anymore, but thanks for trying to help. Had I known that program exists, I might have been able to recover the games if I had used it instantly.
Thank you for making such an excellent game! The little movie clips were cool; they really helped to build the plot. The reverse-engineering itself feels a lot like the real thing (without nearly as much complexity) and really catches the spirit of how it works and what’s involved. I only wish the game was longer. If you ever do start making games again, I suggest a longer version of this game. I would pay for more levels. 🙂
A truly amazing game, after playing 2, I tried 1 and CE. I reccomend adding a bypass feature, and a continous pulse, in addition to the toggle.
Running under Windows 7, crashes when I beat a level :/ I was looking forward to this too…
Did you try running in Compatibility Mode? It may help.
CondemnedGamer: Run the game as Administrator and you shouldn’t have any more problems. Why? Because I wrote this game at the end of Windows XP’s rein, was only able to test the game in Windows XP, and thought it’d be fine to save progress inside the install directory (in Program Files), which is no longer “okay” in Vista / Win7.
Alternatively, if you’re not comfortable elevating the game to Administrator privileges you can move the entire game install directory to somewhere other than Program Files (like your desktop) and run the game from there. It will be able to write your progress to the save file and will not crash.
Just got the bomb! Took me a while to figure out how to get the challenge code, almost didnt enter the response in time!
Awesome game, really makes you think! I’m a mechanical student so I had to go off basic electronics knowledge, which was enough for this!
Brilliant game!, I can play this over and over, I’ve had it since it’s release and always go back to it and it’s always a challenge again.
Any news on a new episode??
Thanks 😀
Have you tried out Ruckingenur CE? It’s a compilation of 4 (6?) levels designed by people who loved Ruckingenur II THAT MUCH. Unfortunately, only one or two of the levels have music, since it’s essentially untouched (unfixed, unedited) versions of the submitted levels, all in one game.
I’m on level 2. I’ve gotten the weapon to fire by sending it one of the keys listed on the debug interface, but the mission won’t complete. What do I need to do to win?
Never mind I’ve got it now. Didn’t think to look there 🙂
Stuck on 3rd: I can modify the date, but how can I enter encrypted message?
Try using your serial probe somewhere on the decoder.
I finished level 1 and the game crashed immediately. I use a dell laptop my operating system is Windows Vista. Is there something I can do to stop the crashing
bud_engineer: Run the game as Administrator, or move it out of Program Files. I wrote the game on Windows XP, where writing to Program Files from an unelevated account was an acceptable thing to do.
Thanks Zach. Its working fine.
Help on mission 3 PLEASE!!!!!!!!
The device is currently decoding messages sent with the daily key for “today”. You need to figure out how to change the date to the date on the encoded message on the paper. Then you need to figure out how to input the letters written on the paper so that the decoded message comes out on the device’s screen.
But HOW???! Please explain how it works!!!
(Or send a video to slasala@nc.rr.com)
To Zach:
Game is awesome!!! But please make a Mac version.
Wow. You made it to level 3, and you haven’t learned how to use the serial pin?
No. I can’t figure out what the passage in the Help section about it means. Please explain.
P.S. –
Future posts from me will be named “KrahkaMaster”
Never mind. I figured it out.
Help on the Bomb please!
I know to type in one of the codes, but I don’t know which one. Hackers don’t guess! So how do I figure out which one?
The code you enter is the “Response” to a “Challenge” given by a chip. Unfortunately, the Challenge isn’t issued until after you’ve activated the detonation sequence.
Also, I can’t remember exactly how you get to the point where you can enter the code; you might try pulsing the detonator chip…?
Tried that, blew up with either pulse. For some reason when I clicked exit it said I had won (Im still going to try to disarm the bomb though).
