Hint?

[Puzzle Prime]

Hello Cherokee. This CALCULATOR may help you:)

[Jordan]

i need a hint quick before 3:15

[Puzzle Prime]

Hello Jordan. Look for letters in the picture which could encode two Roman numerals.

[Jade Berry]

I need another clue, I am ashamed to say. I guess I’m not that good at this.

[Jade Berry]

I see the roman numerals (at least I think I do). I’m just not coming up with the correct 4 digits

[Puzzle Prime]

Hello @jadeberry. Did you find both Roman numerals?

[Jade Berry]

I think I did. The obvious ones…

[Puzzle Prime]

Yes, then just sum them up and you will get the answer:)

[aliciagordon]

Hi.. I am new to this game.. I really need some help.. Like I can’t find the roman numerals.. So ashamed..

 

 

[Puzzle Prime]

Hello @aliciagordon. There is nothing to be ashamed of, sometimes puzzles can be tricky. Look at the sentences on the left and on the right of the cross. They are titleized, so just use their capitalized letters to form two Roman numerals and sum them.

[CHRISTY SERNA]

i tried following your hints and got 3306, which wasn’t the answer. an extra hint would be appreciated 🙂

[Puzzle Prime]

Hi Christy. Did you turn MMCLI and CMLV from Roman to Numeral and then sum them up?

[CHRISTY SERNA]

i figured it out. thank you ! : ))

[Nita]

Hmm…I have the sum of 3306 but then I got nothing afterwards. Can I have a another hint?

[Puzzle Prime]

Hi Nita. Be careful when you are summing the numbers. You are one digit off:)

[Nita]

I was doing the 2nd Victim and i had to restart my computer. Is there anyway to go back?

[Puzzle Prime]

Hi Nita. You can access any part of the story by going directly to:

where ****** is the title of the chosen chapter. For “The Second Victim”, just replace the stars with the-second-victim.

[Hailey Frederick]

I do not understand what I am doing wrong. I got 3106, but it says it’s the wrong passcode…?

[Puzzle Prime]

Hi Hailey. 3106 is the correct passcode and it works well on my side. The image you have attached is from the previous chapter, “The Card”. Are you sure you are entering the passcode for the correct chapter?
