The REAL game starts... (Puzzle Box 1)


Recommended Posts

On the video there was a spot with a face and date range.

1866 <picture of a face> 1946

The only person I could find born 1866 died 1946 was H G Wells

No idea what puzzle this may help with

Herbert George Wells (September 21, 1866 ? August 13, 1946), better known as H. G. Wells, was an English writer best known for such science fiction novels as The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The Invisible Man, and The Island of Doctor Moreau

Can't help but notice that 8 and 66 are two of the numbers on the repair table, and the (866) area code shows up on the Las Vegas sign in the video. Could it be a phone number? Separate the 101 into 10 and 1, and I think you have enough digits.

But what would you do with the 10? Just drop it?

That is a reference for "What did he write about?"....the answer "TIME TRAVEL"

when we solve all the puzzles for this week we need to focus on the white symbols they can't be a coincidence.

Except that they are. Do a search on the definition of the word "meta". Basically, the meta puzzle will be something that ties everything together. As I've said before, don't obsess over things that are easily explained away. You'll drive yourself crazy. The puzzle elements will be deliberately obvious, but HARD, not random and inexplicable.

    • Too soon, I'm still not over this death!
    • Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
