I swear these contests LOVE to throw sliding block puzzles into the mix. Still have nightmares from the Doritos contest puzzles.

Played through the Temple Escape game and got the 5th glyph. Decided to continue on when it asks after that and play the rest, but it merely gets you to a "The End" after many more puzzles. Was hoping there would be more for the extra effort.


Thanks of the extra effort, was thinking about doing that tonight. You saved me some time. Worshippy

You can put that time towards cracking the cipher they posted on FB a bit ago. Wink

And the plot thickens. The text is going to be a fun one to figure out, but it will give the answer for the glyph received for each test.


Sigma gives the location in the interview.

The location: "I Say Run Man" equals:

Funny, I answered that one before the second audio clip was up. I just assumed that the alien in the first was Sigma and he mentions that answer about halfway through. Lucky I guess.

If the message tells me to "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine" I think i might loose it.

looks like there is 22 different Glyphs with the dot rotating around them.

Nice one again, MrToasty.

Here's the glyph that's shown, just so we have them all in one place (I rotated it):


so if we are to assume each glyph = 1 or 2 letter, could we assume this would be a 2 letter word, like ON or NO?

Wait...have we already gotten all 7 glyphs?

The puzzles on /bartndr give you glyphs 2, 4, 6, and 7. And there are 3 games that give you glyphs (presumably 1, 3, and 5).

So all that's left is to use the images on facebook (the translation of which I assume Nate will post tomorrow) to decode the glyphs and access the Meta Puzzle!

not getting far on the alien document, but i did notice that the last 6 Glyphs match up with the ones in the background. Think it would be safe to say it spells BARTNDR.
