Mhhh i don't know what to do with the old key pieces nor with the new puzzle. I tried the 24 different combinations and tried also the old key on another place where it leads me to an infinite loading screen.
Leaving it to my future me
Edit: Future me was present me, solved

I'm stuck there with ya! I used the old key and re-did the final part but it still links to the deleted giveaway. And trying the old tricks (and new tricks) with the new puzzle got me nowhere so far. Scratches head
Edit: Congrats Kyog, that gives me hope. :D

Hmm I found something that may or may not be coincidence, I need to do some research xD
Edit: It was a coincidence, or perhaps a nod xD Solved it now though \o/

Hehe ty! Oops yeah, I should have thought to make another edit. It was encouraging to have someone thinking along the same lines as me solve it soon after, good for the ol' motivation 😁

so frustrated that I can't participate, so much time wasted...

Don't take it like that. It's not time wasted. You solved a puzzle, you should be proud of yourself.
And here's the thing: a puzzle is not a rainbow. It doesn't lead to a sure win at the end, it just leads to a chance of winning.
Trust me, I have solved well over a hundred puzzles since I've been on SG, entered probably several hundreds of GAs from it and won once.
So don't feel frustrated. Enjoy the solving. If you can't solve it, don't see it as a loss of a game. See it as a way to learn something new.

oh, looks like I was unclear. I meant that it turned out that the game region is restricted.
WaxWorm is right.

I got it. And I'm sorry the game is locked for Russians (although I guess that was predictable since the game is not being sold in Russia) but everything I said is still valid.
I tend to solve puzzles even when I'm not interested in or already own the game. It's good practice to train your mind to think things through.
Congrats on solving this one

Right? I never thought I'd like puzzles, but I honestly have to say these are a reward in and of themselves
I'm only lv1 so I couldn't enter this giveaway or the previous version, but still ended up solving both since it's just so satisfying once you get to the end. My brain melts every time, but I'm hopeful it'll slowly improve. Either that or I'll slowly go insane. :D
I can definitely see why it might not be for everyone, though

Exactly! Keeps the noodle twirling too which is good on every level.
My brain melts every time, but I'm hopeful it'll slowly improve
Your brain is making new connections and growing with everything you learn so you are already improving. But yeah I can see why some can find it frustrating. That moment you solve it though, it's the best feeling.
I ended up solving the previous one the day after the GA ended. Just didn't even want to check if there was a solution in the thread because I wanted to test my solution first.

Why was it time wasted? You solved the puzzle and entered the giveaway with a great chance at winning a popular, expensive new game... And you didn't win. One of the entries was selected, but it wasn't yours - that's what normally happens, it's the nature of the site. Better luck next time!

They're from Russia and thus can't enter the giveaway due to the region restrictions. Since the OP mentions restrictions and links to SteamDB, they could have avoided doing the puzzle though.

Bump for solved! It's a shame you had to redo the giveaway, but hey, more puzzles equals more fun right?

Solvers of the previous puzzle just use the old key pieces and solve the puzzle most people wanted it to be.
Clearly I was not one of "most people", since I have no clue what to try. You want me to try things that were wrong before? 🤷

Yes - most folks' intuitions were that the keys were somehow related to colors in the image...

Puzzle for Hogwarts Legacy
