Puzzely giveaway - round 2

Closed

Since you guys seemed to enjoy my last puzzle, here's another one.
This time, the game is Max Payne 3.

The new puzzle is similar to the old one, but with a twist. It's a bit more difficult and it will require 3rd party tools to solve it (nothing needs to be installed, you already have everything, or can access it freely on the internet)
For those that have not tried the first puzzle, the objective is to find the next page to advance.

Please don't share the answers or give clues. I'll drop some clues if I find it necessary.

Puzzle will run until the 16th.
Key will be sent via Steam Chat (add me as a friend or accept my invite)

Enjoy :)

This is the url for the puzzle
http://spyonu.byethost7.com
(don't modify anything in it. I'm not responsible for what sites you might end up on if you do :)
Only change what follows the url.)

The answers do not have empty spaces in them, all are one single string of text.

clues
3) In the middle of the desert. The answer is without spaces and it doesn't mean anything :)
4) http://www.w3schools.com/web/ (see if this link can shed some light on the 4th puzzle) :)
7) Americans find their chains very convenient :) (this is to give a helping hand to !Americans)

Stupid question but how does it work? Where to type answers or anything like that?

And what? Am I suppose to click on something? Or is it a kind of a riddle to put the answer into the link?

I'm trying not to, but it seems this is where I'm stopping. It hasn't been anything I'd expect it to be from the hints or anything.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Hopefully we can get a hint from someone soon. Not sure how anyone skipped 4 and went straight to 5

I require from you multiple hints. Let us begin with level 4... :P

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

The level 4 puzzle is harder for those not familiar with how the websites work.
I've updated the main post with another clue.
a minor clue for 4: look at the source of the problem (also check the top hint)
Congratulations on making it this far despite the harder puzzles :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

As for the level 4 I may give you guys a hint.. this is for the ones that at least program a little bit.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

i still don't know what to do

how many questions are?

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

yup, we are solving together with hisunrise, but we can't move from 7 :D

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

If you solved 3 and with the hint from the main post, you shouldn't have too much problem finding the answer :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

it seems obvious, but i cant figure out how

edit: got it

11 years ago

I'm stuck on 3 without any ideas how to solve

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

@ChrisITA & Phil2xf6m (and all others still stuck on 3)
see the clue in the main post.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Already readed the hint. It's not giving me help at all

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

It a bit ridiculous, just go further...

11 years ago

Yourpuzzles and having no possibilities to get any help make me extremely depressed... Don't know what to do in lvl 1...

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Read the entire thread. Some clues have been given about puzzle 1 :)
Look on the page. What is there that fits the "twins" description?

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I can't even pass 1, I'm not familiar with this type of puzzles. :'(

See my reply to the post above :)

Stuck at 7 for 3 hours...omg...i know it's like 3..but i can't solve the second part

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm still frustrated at lvl 4. I don't know shit about programming.. lol

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

The level 4 has 3 clues (all related to the answer) that point you to the location of the solution :)
Check the link I posted in the main post and search for material related to one of the clues.
Programming relies on source code :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

lol... that was pretty nice, got it.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

that does not help!

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

There is only 1 puzzle. The second part is a clue that should help you link the elements of the puzzle.
Check the clue in the main post. Do some magic google-ing. Who knows what's in store for you. :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Now I'm with you suffering there :D

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I blew through the first two, but that third one... even after reading all these clues my mind is still not getting it. It's been like, and hour.

Update: That sir, was a fantastic game. Though I am not a contributor, so I cant enter, but still enjoyable. :)

11 years ago

don't look for something in the desert, look for something in the desert :)

ok, still confused X.x

This will all be relative to Spyonu's previous post.
Aldus Manutius created a f*** type that has lasted to this day.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm probably missing something obvious but I'm stumped by puzzle 4, tried pretty much everything I could find.
I'll try again in a few hours if it's still going on.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

The puzzle runs until the 16th, so you have plenty of time :)
Read some of my clues on 4 through out the thread (on this page even) :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I think I found something for 7 but dont know how to write it out.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

no spaces, just letters and numbers :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Still didnt get it, is 7 a bit opposite of 3?

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Now I'm stuck at 5 :"> :|

Maybe I don't look where I should.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Have you found anything different on that page?
Look at it. What can you do with it?
(if you're still having trouble with it, reply here) :)

Yes found that, but can't figure out what to do with that :">

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Okay, I give up. 3 is incredibly illogical. Or I'm just stupid. And yeah, I know I have to look at the word, not at the place.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm in the same boat. I've come at this from like 9 different angles, but to no avail. I will explode if I cant figure this out before class.

Try starting from the middle and then expand your solution

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

You Phil, are a professional at giving hints.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Still require guidance on #7!

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

look at the level you're on. look at the answer. look at the clue :)
I'll give you a hand if you're still stuck

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

stuck on 3. i've read all comments and still can't solve it, please help :D

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Phil's gave a great clue about 3 a few posts up.
Here's another one: The answer itself has no meaning.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

i don't get it. In the middle of The Desert. maybe it's the space between words The Desert, but i don't know how to write it. or i'm just thinking too hard.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

The answer is without spaces and has no meaning (it's not a word) :)

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

ok... but, it's still very hard to me X.x

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

if it's not a word, then what i have to write?is it a letter or number or symbol or what? answer and say yes if it's one of them :D

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Anthrobomination

cheats on

Jumped from level 3 to level 7, still dunno what was the answer

edit. lol, solved, too easy

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Can soimeone give me a clue for Level 4?
I don't get it after I matched first and style

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Match them in style with the clue from main post :)

Comment has been collapsed.

I don't understand anything from the website. How is it supposed to be related to #4 >.<
