Got to 18 with the wonderful password "🥚JanuaryVPassVIIword$Shellr3ny45about🌕🌖chile28Ng3+"

I think I'm gonna call it quits for now.

I just played this earlier today. I got tripped up on rule 20 then when I had recovered my browser crashed and it made me start over 😩

I got to Rule 16 here. I had problems because the captcha contained chess notation, so for me to get past it I had to also regenerate the captcha to one that didn't violate any of the other rules. After five attempts I gave up.

Yeahhh this was happening to me too. It took like 30 captchas before I got one that didn't violate the rule

I got to the Google maps step and was like screw this!

🤣

Rule 8 is too dystopian for me. I hate that I can totally see this becoming a real thing.

This was a lot more fun to play with than expected. I'll just wait for someone to write a plugin or app which uses this game as a password generator for KeePass.

I got to rule 24 this time before I lost. It gets a lot harder lmao

How did you deal with today's wordle answer having a C in it?

Edit: Just learned about roman numeral fractions and now my brain is melting...

Edit 2: Omg I feel so dumb right now

Lower case doesn't count for roman numerals!

Tried twice, got stuck on the chess notation each time, even though I thought the move I was putting in was pretty good, it obviously wasn't the best.

same, it kept telling me it was an illegal move and that it was white's turn. I WAS TRYING TO MOVE WHITE. There's also the possibility I was just doing it wrong.

I think I managed a checkmate and it still wasn't happy!

Did you remember to add the + or ++ at the end to indicate check or checkmate?

Really fun, what a shame I don't know today's wordle answer yet tho

Well, that was going well until everything set on fire. I didn't sign up for QTEs. Good fun, though.

I saw this the other evening and played it. Man, it went from 0-100 real quick. Really wild little game!

This is so dumb yet so funny. Once it got to the Wordl part I was like, I gotta do research now?

I got to the youtube video and decided to kill Paul instead because otherwise I'd be at this all day. It was fun until it wasn't anymore.

I "hacked" the game (if you know how to get into the scripts, just look for the one that has the unmangled text "wordle" in it) to find out how long it is and the later tasks are simply ridiculous. If anyone's thinking of actually trying to get to the end, I wouldn't recommend it.

This spoiler contains all the tasks after the Youtube video task (and keep in mind, you still need to upkeep ALL the previous tasks too, such as the chess notation or that digits add up to 25):

::: spoiler spoiler

  • A sacrifice must be made. Pick 2 letters that you will no longer be able to use.
  • Your password must contain twice as many italic characters as bold.
  • At least 30% of your password must be in the Wingdings font.
  • All roman numerals must be in Times New Roman.
  • The font size of every digit must be equal to its square.
  • Every instance of the same letter must have a different font size.
  • Your password must include the length of your password.
  • The length of your password must be a prime number.
  • Uhhh let's skip this one.
  • Your password must include the current time.
  • Is this your final password?
  • Please re-type your password before the bomb explodes. :::

I lost when it asked me to find include a link to a youtube video that was a specific length. Sorry Paul!

Arrrrr, why does it force me to play chess?

Wordle is fine, geoguesser is alright, but chess?? really?!

Chess got me as well, but more because the captcha that they required be present in the password also happened to be an illegal chess move. Not sure how to get around that one.

Got to the one where I had to include an emoji. I know I can get them on desktop, but I wasn't willing to learn how tonight.

Windows key + semicolon for the emoji picker! you can type to filter as well

After careful search for two-letter elements without Roman numerals my password got on fire. I gave up 🔥

I did the same! I was playing on mobile and couldn't get rid of the fire fast enough by the time I figured out what was going on lol 😭
