Spectre in the Study [SOLUTION POSTED]

[Antonio]

For one part brute force req


I can't understand a word either but I managed to solve it. You can do it sure as well

I just did it, had to do things over on mobile because I couldn't hear the songs

 

[Mistreil]

I'm pretty busy with work today, so you likely won't be hearing much from me for a bit. If you run into any weird bugs, please PM me! The game should be completable (and I'll fix anything that needs fixing in the next day or two -- so far it's mostly been rare browser-related problems).

I believe in you all! If you get stuck or find yourself getting frustrated, taking a break and coming back later might help!
The game will be available until the 31st, so there's no rush in finishing it.

I hope this doesn't give too much away, but is everything in this text based adventure exclusively Animal Crossing: New Horizons?

Mostly, but not exclusively ACNH!

I give up, there no clues and I can barely understand what the audio is

As someone who is hard in hearing, I just have to say that I don't understand the sound.

You should be able to solve it without hearing the audio -- there's a text-based clue that should come up at the same time (it starts with ". . . NOW ")! If you're not seeing that message, please let me know via PM and I'll look into it.

It's there, took me awhile though.

super fun game! got stumped a few times but just kept going

Wow… I have somehow managed to solve both while being extremely sleep deprived…idk how it happened but I’m so glad I did!!

Thanks so much for this fun event!!

GOT THE CODES!

Thank you so much! It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was expecting it to be on the Easter Egg hunt type of difficulty or even when we were doing the bird/animal hunt during the Camp event we did.

You definitely do NOT need to use your big brain here. Just be inquisitive and curious like you would in any type of game

 

[DaCoSim]

Lol! This was fun Mistreil!!! Thx so much!

 

[N a t]

I don't think I've ever tried anything like this before and it was fun and interesting! Thanks for putting this together!!

 

[Jhine7]

Oh the unnecessary struggle/brute force I put myself through for part B... Finally got both, great game!

 

[Nkosazana]

I feel kinda stupid doing this as im stuck already hahaha, but its so cute, thank you to whoever made this as i imagine it took alot of work!

Edit: i give up lmao

 

[Flicky]

I had a lot of fun with this one! Reading the comments, I was kinda dreading it but I was pleasantly surprised.
Agreeing with others as well, if you're stuck, just keep exploring!

 

[Corrie]

I got the one, now I just gotta figure out the song thing. I can't understand a word of the audio but I'm sure I'm thinking too hard lmao

And just like that, I got it! lol smacked me in the face. Thanks for the game! It was really cute and fun!

 

[Izrael]

Just got both of the codes, but I feel as though I didn't play through the full story. Hopefully, there's some sort of full explanation at the end of the event!​

 

[KittenNoir]

It's morning now I've had some rest lets see if I can do this I am struggling with the audio

Edit: Already stressing out

 

[mocha.]

@Mistreil you did an AMAZING job with this game, I absolutely loved it and finally getting the codes felt really rewarding. I can’t wait to see how you implement this website into future events!!

 

[Nkosazana]

Ok, i solved it finally hahaha!? That was actually brilliant and once i solved it after checking everything and scratching my brain is was super fun!

 

[Firesquids]

I loved this so much! Another unique event game, thanks Mistril! It made my day.

 

[Kumori]

That was a lot of fun! I love little text-based games, it’s fun how much you can actually do with them.

The Spectre in the Study is very pleased by all the visitors

As a treat, I've thrown a very short FAQ into the main post. They aren't very spoiler-like but they're things that have popped up in this thread multiple times. It'd be exhausting for people to have to read through all of the pages to see these -- you're all doing enough reading within the game itself!
I also won't have much time to respond to PMs/the thread over the next few days, so I figured I'd cover my bases this way.

The first code was so easy to get, but now I’m struggling with the second one. This feels impossible
