Hey there everyone!

We over at Evil Puzzles -Я- Us are hosting a little treasure hunt of games. Each one will have a puzzle, and the games will get better as you go on. Now, none of us are rich, so we can't afford to do anything too big, but we hope you enjoy it.

4 of us participated in making the puzzles and giveaways for this. myself, teurmug, Fever and Chiasm.

We will also be using this to recruit new members, so if you get to the end, let us know if you would like an invite and we'll review everything. If you'd rather do it a quicker way without giveaways because you don't want games for some reason, we have a recruitment puzzle on our group page linked above.

There is no contribution value, and the puzzles will go until the morning of March 11 EST.

Standard rules apply, no cheating, leaking, sharing. You know the drill.

If you finish a puzzle or are enjoying it, we would appreciate a bump to get more people to enjoy it also.

If you are stuck on something, post on the giveaway page that you found that puzzle on. The group will discuss it if people are stuck on the same questions, and potentially give hints, but we aren't planning on it as the puzzles contain hints already.

If you are planning on applying to join, we are looking for active members who enjoy making and doing puzzles. The goal of the group is not to solve puzzles together, but to make them together, test out new question ideas on other members, and share forum posts that contain a puzzle you enjoyed or think has a good prize. There are no requirements about giving away games to fellow group members, though we would of course be appreciative of that.

If you have any questions about the group, just ask and we will gladly answer them.


Your first step is below. Good luck.

puzzle 1
puzzle 2
puzzle 3
puzzle 4

any additional hints will be put on the giveaway page that leads to the puzzle the hint is for

quiz 6 has additional hints up due to mistakes

Let us know if you like or dislike a puzzle on the giveaway it leads to. We would appreciate it, and the puzzles are made by the person hosting the giveaway it leads to.

The image is disturbing so I'll pass on this since I don't work well under fear.

Okay but can I ask one question...Is the answer to one related to the subject matter of that particular quiz...If that's not asking too much! Just want to know if I'm barking up the wrong geometrically shaped tree!

um, I can do that. The last two obviously have something in common, the first one isn't the same thing lol. They are all video game related but that's the only relation between the first and the rest.

Nope...I'm stumped for now. Will have to wait for the hint but at least I won't be wasting my time bruteforcing with entirely unrelated things! :) Thanks.

About the **** quiz, how am I supposed to know the format for Q1?
And Q2 seems to have an error. (Solved it though)
I was lucky to solve Q3, but that has many possible answers too.

q3 has the two most common ways it would be written, and 1 it's a simple format if you follow the way you are supposed to do it.

EDIT: I apologize, 2 does have a mistake, it should say lower not larger

It really doesn't though.

What does the puzzle want with it? Simply? Find a letter? Make a cake with it?

Q1 on stage 2 is being annoying. There's only one genewars I know of.

EDIT: Nevermind, I was doing it wrong.

I can see that, but I don't understand the puzzle.

And the next stage is math. Something I'm horrible at. Lovely.

Stuck on Stage 2, Question 1, even the hint didn't help. I had not needed to search anything up that point, but even with searching I can't solve this one. Thanks though!

I don't understand what the first math question wants.

I tried doing the obvious thing, and I even tried following what it said in the description. Nada..

EDIT: I was doing the right thing, but the formatting was horrible.

Comment has been collapsed.

it's not hard, you have to solve the one in the description though, because the order in the puzzle is wrong

I know, I worked it out. As I said, it was the formatting that was the problem.

Fortunately, the stage after is more to my liking :)

in the video game one? the hint should give it away, but if you're stuck on it after that, the answer is only 4 letters.
