The Cypher Files: Puzzle 19

I went over your report and he seems very promising.
See what you can find out by interviewing him and fill me in.

Book Hint:

Make sure you go through the right doors.

Hint One
  • Find the next thing in the pattern on each page to get the door
Hint Two
  • Including A, you’ll have 5 letters/doors that create the solution
Hint Three
  • It’s B. I don’t know why; I’d assume the next thing would be a 5 sided shape, but hey.
  • The dot is going around square by square and the line is alternating between two squares, so where will each be in the next iteration?
  • Fibonacci sequence
  •  Roman numerals
  • Hands on a clock going counter-clockwise
Solution
  • ABIDE
Clue 19
  • revenge

  1. It’s B because there’s a line added to each shape. 1 line = a straight line ( ― ), 2 lines = a V-shape ( < ), 3 lines = a triangle (△), 4 lines = a square ( ▢ ). The symbol on the door (B) on the left is a square and the symbol on the door to the right (C) is a circle, thus B is the correct answer.

  2. I get it! Ok, so you start by going through the first door – A – giving you the first letter of the answer. You then solve the puzzle marked A (2/11) and the solution indicates door B, which is not only the next letter in the answer, but the next puzzle room (3/11). The solution for puzzle B is the door marked I. Again, this is the next letter of the final answer AND the next puzzle to solve – puzzle I (10/11). Puzzle I solution is door D (5/11); puzzle D solution is door E (6/11); and the solution for puzzle E is the exit door, indicating that you have all the letters that you need: ABIDE.
