Hello world!
So I decided to make my first puzzle and added some giveaways in it. I never tried anything similar before so please be lenient with me.

Puzzle: http://www.itstoohard.com/puzzle/ncfUL6ts
Games in giveaways: Planes, Bolt, Brave, Epic Mickey 2, WALL-E, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion

There are actually two puzzles. You'll have access to half of the giveaways after the 1st one is solved and to the rest after the 2nd.

Hope you'll have fun. I'll add some hints later if I'll see someone stuck somewhere so don't worry^^ Of course I also welcome anyone giving hints in my place, just please don't spoil anything fully/don't give them the full answer for the ITH. Thanks & good luck!

Hints:
Puzzle1: Its easy, just find every word you can! Leftovers will be also handy somehow.
Puzzle1: Still stuck? Maybe you could try looking more at those leftover words first and reading them in order of appearance? And then putting it together with the omits in the grid?
Puzzle2: The grid is important. Maybe it will even tell you how to solve this puzzle?
Puzzle2: Word equals to numbers? And they're the same length.. maybe I could try to go by letters?

Yeah, I love them!
My one and only love is Junior Jumble.
Crossword Puzzles are the best ones.
I prefer more logical oriented puzzles.
I hate all puzzles. ;-;

Bump for the awesome puzzles and the great giveaways! :) Thanks a lot.

I'm still ultra mega stuck on the second one though. I've watched the Cracking the Cryptic YT channel for over a year so I've tried a lot of different things, but I still have no idea lmao. A tiny hint would be awesome~

I googled up the channel and well.. I'm just a very ordinary & simple human being (that person is really awesome though). :D I didn't go for any super hard puzzle with the second one. I was planning to start giving hints for the second puzzle after one week, but now I can definitely tell you at least that you should try to see it in a more simplistic way. What would an ordinary human (like me) try doing with it first? (I know that its really hard to not overthink anything, I'm usually the one who overthinks even the not-overthinkable.)
I'm not sure if I helped you a little, so let me know!^^ I just wanted to say that there is no "The Da Vinci Code" included, so you don't need to search for that.

CTC really is an awesome channel! You should check their Miracle Sudoku video, it's an amazing solve. (Suggestion: Watch the video with 1.25x or 1.5x speed, he takes his time to explain everything lol.)

Anyway, thanks a lot for the hint. :) I was about to watch The Imitation Game movie just to check if I missed some weird russian decodification process. Let's hope I can solve it so I can rest tonight. Thanks again for the giveaways!

I actually just rewatched The Imitation Game, thank you so much for helping me with remembering this movie.^^ I'll make sure to watch the video later, maybe I'll get some inspiration for my future giveaways, hehe :3

Hopefully you'll figure it out, its just about getting the right idea. I will definitely add some more useful hints later, for now you'll have to use your imagination^^ (Or maybe hints from someone more merciful than me.) Wish you luck with the puzzle & giveaways!

Edit: So I actually saw the full video and I loved it! When I saw the puzzle with the rules I couldn't resist trying to solve it myself first before watching the video further, I had some problems with those 3 (I kept forgetting about the additional rules) but other than that it was great! This channel is really amazing, now I know where to look when I'll be in need of some more puzzles, thank you so much! <3

I've solved part 2, and I'm absolutely sure no mistakes, but it doesn't accept any of the answers. Need some kind of guidance of what's going on.

Giving up on Part 2. I tried everything I could think of and no joy so it's quite alright.
Looking forward to the solution because I love to learn from puzzles

Thanks for the fun word puzzle!

Forgot to comment before. I enjoyed the first part, and I think I know what it's supposed to mean but probably didn't enter it right. Not that it matters much since I don't enter giveaways. I ended up solving in Paint. Not the most comfortable, but worked.
