I beat this massive puzzle game in which all players are involved.
“Epic send control I will eat a pot of shit, I will not delete the review, just wait and see, first of all, the Epic mall will not send the game that has been on the shelves, and then it is impossible to send a game with a low discount, there are many Weibo It is said that there is no response from the sending control Epic. It is not because the game to be sent is guessed, but because the game will be sent by that time, which will cause these people’s psychological gap to be too big and can’t stand it anymore. Good game, I said before about what wolf to give away, that’s a dream, it would be nice to send you a game with a discount of thirty or forty dollars to pass away. I won’t delete the comments, you can see me at any time face.”
Everyone knows the story. A few days later, Epic really sent “Control”, but the original owner of this passage did not fulfill his lofty ambitions and chose to delete the comment and run away. And this passage has also become the “Bible” in the player circle.
Now, everyone knows that the mystery game sent by Epic must be a boutique. Two years ago today, the mysterious games Epic sent were GTA5 and NBA2K. On May 19 this year, another mystery game will meet you. At the same time, the official Weibo released a clue map, and claimed that because the mystery game is not allowed to leak in advance, the puzzle is difficult.
In fact, such guessing activities have become a tradition. During Christmas last year, Epic sent out mystery games for 15 consecutive days, so the decryption time for each mystery game was only 24 hours. I naively wanted to join the game, however, my meager knowledge of the game didn’t allow me to do so.
In the past ten days, I saw the big guys who showed their magical powers, in just a few hours, pieced together a near-perfect logic through fragmented clues. Sometimes I’m even battling Epic’s overwhelmed servers, and there’s already someone guessing what the game will be sending out tomorrow.
This time, the mysterious game on the Epic mall has only a door full of technology. It seems to be related to games like interstellar, cosmic, etc.
With these two pictures in hand, I’m pretty sure that next week’s mystery game, I can’t guess. However, such a difficult puzzle was solved within 24 hours.
“As much as you want, it’s all here.”
“Come on, feed your son some cakes.”
Through these two sentences, the puzzle solver remembered the well-known pie in the game industry – “No Man’s Sky”.
Before the release of No Man’s Sky, the developers promised that there are endless planets to explore in the game, it is “as much as you want here”, and to feed the son to eat the cake, you have to call “come here”, indicating that “nothing is possible.” People” feed the son to eat cake. Finally, No Man’s Sky was initially released. Because the cakes were too large, the game failed to achieve its expectations and experienced a bombardment of bad reviews. Fortunately, the manufacturer did not put it away. After many free updates, the cakes drawn at the beginning were fulfilled one by one. Players really ate the pie that was drawn at the beginning, and this process just corresponds to “eating pie”.
Coupled with the door full of technology, it looks like a screenshot of a game from “No Man’s Sky”.
It seems that the answer to “No Man’s Sky” is a certainty. Except for a mysterious piece of code in the clue map, the rest is right.
What’s more interesting is that the official requirement not to reveal the mysterious game, but the official operation brother of Epic liked it under all the comments that speculated about No Man’s Sky.
Wait, aren’t the officials not allowing the insider to leak? Isn’t this operation guy afraid of losing his job?
Less than a day has passed, on May 15th, a user named “Blue Soul Youlong” opened a new post on Epic with a low-key opening remark like “Pure Decryption and Play”, and his eyes were directed at the mysterious code.
BBDAHAC0E
Arranged in alphabetical order, the Blue Soul Youlong replaced the letters with numbers, namely 224181305. Using intuition, experience and analysis, he tried to interpret the number in terms of dates. Ultimately, the code becomes this:
April 18, 2022 at 13:05!
So far, most of the decryption work has been completed, and the rest is verification. We don’t know how much effort Lanhunyoulong has put in, but in the process, tall buildings have been built in his posts, which is the proof of trial and error.
Finally, in Epic’s official Weibo released on April 15, he found a comment at 13:05 on April 18, 2022, and the time is not bad!
The tweet is this:
And the comment is this:
It can be seen that there are many spectators in the building who ran back to the archaeology on May 15. Blue Soul Youlong’s answer points to “Borderlands 3”.
This decryption process shocked me for a whole year. Regardless of whether the answer is right or not, in the future, if I come across a puzzle game where I can name myself, I will definitely enter “Blue Soul Youlong”.
When I was writing this article, I saw another piece of information related to the mysterious game-foreign players entered the game. They didn’t have their own puzzles to guess, so they could only join the national server and found two other clues, which provided strong evidence for Blue Soul Youlong’s answer.
Next to the boy who eats the cake, he is holding three hands. Perhaps, this is the 3 in Borderlands?
The “cake” that was pressed on the lips was NBA2K, but the three letters of NBA were covered up, leaving only 2K. You know, the developer of Borderlands is called 2K GAMES.
On Douyin, Epic officials also responded to the comments predicting “Borderlands 3”, which looked very admirable.
So far, the information in the clue map has been squeezed out, and Borderlands 3 seems to be the correct answer. However, a considerable number of players still believe that the mysterious game is “No Man’s Sky”, and the two doors full of technology are too similar. Beyond that, there’s no guarantee that there will be new possibilities, after all, it’s not yet Thursday.
The twists and turns of the decryption process made me addicted, so yesterday, I forwarded the decryption process of Blue Soul Youlong to my good friend’s WeChat. But she showed a lack of interest, and just reluctantly chatted with me so as not to embarrass me. At that moment, I suddenly thought of this question:
So why am I so fascinated by mystery game predictions?
I suddenly thought of such a scene. I was watching a certain spy war movie. The protagonist was a special agent. He found a string of disorganized English letters on his dead teammates. With his agility and intelligence, he replaced the letters with numbers. Finally, he arranged it by year, month, and day, and found that it was a time when the important leader of the enemy would appear, and a great opportunity came!
How excited will I be when I see this part? Would I be amazed by the agility and intelligence of the protagonist? Maybe, I’ll yawn at the screen…
Why is the difference between the two so big?
The answer I found was, games.
For example, I’m playing an escape room game and find the key (mystery game) to open the door. Unfortunately, I’m just a rookie player, and I got stuck early.
Therefore, when I look at the reasoning process of Blue Soul Youlong, I am not watching a movie, but checking the strategy.
It is worth mentioning that after reading my guide, I finally cleared the room escape game. Note that in my subconscious mind, the person who clears the game is “I”, not the great god who wrote the strategy, nor the protagonist of a certain movie. In other words, I am the protagonist.
I imagined again, I was a special agent who had gone through untold hardships and finally deciphered the code and successfully assassinated the leader of the enemy. Would I be excited?
of course!
So, I’m so fascinated by mystery game predictions because I’m playing a great puzzle game. The reason I’m excited about the mystery game being cracked is because I’ve beaten this massive puzzle game that all players are involved in.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a sense of pride that belongs only to gamers. People who don’t play games will never experience the sense of accomplishment after clearing the game! I feel uncomfortable if I don’t write this feeling, so I have this random manuscript.
Writing this, I suddenly have some small expectations for the future metaverse games. Maybe one day, I can play a game that is not inferior to the real world with everyone in the virtual world, like these days.
Or maybe, the real metaverse is enough. After all, this game is already too liver and krypton, and there is no way to retreat. .
