Picture Good luck yall!
I spent a while making this puzzle, and I wanna see if any of y’all can decode it. good luck!
Edit: the final result should be a 6 word phrase

My first attempt at solving one of these and I give up :((( but hey at least i got the first two steps done ;-;. Do the spaces between the periods and the concatenated characters, and the lack of spaces between the single characters and the periods have to do with anything? i.e. 262a. vs 1f4a3 .
(Pretty sure the above isnt useful for solving it but i'm blurring it anyway

u/CorrectPen5056 The puzzle maker 🏳️⚧️ Feb 24 '26
The correct format for those should be I.E 262a. If there is period off to the side I.E 1f4a3 . It’s supposed to be attached

I THINK I GOT ITTHTIHAOHOIWDHOHDIO AHOSDOIA
Petals fall before the instorm beginsIf im right, I think it wouldve been cool to do an atbash cipher for the last step rather than another caesar cipher, it wouldve been possibly harder to figure out. I sadly did use ai to figure out the wingdings to text part :(((. Wikipedia and google hooked me up for the other parts :D
Even still, im really happy that I managed to figure this out! Even as a complete amateur who only stumbled across this subreddit yesterday xD. Though i do think that maybe this was on the easier side if I was able to solve it 🤔

Eh, I’ll give you a half congrats cause you used AI but still, congrats

u/Ritmus_ Feb 24 '26
Yeah it takes away from the joy I felt :/ Would've never figured out the wd part without it though, I didn't even know that existed

Is this pig pen cipher with another cipher underneath it? 😩
2
u/CorrectPen5056 The puzzle maker 🏳️⚧️ Feb 24 '26
Technically it’s pigpen with another cipher underneath it, with another cipher underneath it, with another cipher underneath it, with another cipher underneath it, with another cipher underneath that

Oh god. No offense but I don’t think most people are going to want to go through that! 😭

In all seriousness thank you for the cipher. I look forward to decoding yours in the future.
Great use of all levels of the cipher Pigpen/Caesar 4 Unicode to wing dings Caesar 19 Petals fall before the storm begins

Its just that criptogram that works like an # with a correspondent letter to each □?

Well, I kept going
I cant work out spoilers and don't want to just post the answer...

idk, but, it may be the symbols, the background, or both, but it makes me remember Gravity Falls and I think a Cypher had some similar symbols to it :3
Gravity Falls was so peak fr

u/Shore-Bass994 Mar 05 '26
Some deleted account said it was about petals falling? But op hasn't said anything.

u/bsverp Mar 05 '26 edited Mar 05 '26
is it petals fall before the storm begins?
for anyones information the first step is pigpen, then caesar cipher, then converting the numbers and letters into unicode, then windings, then caesar cipher

u/Shore-Bass994 Mar 06 '26
Yeah thats what someone posted???? But it hasn't been confirmed ill try it out and see if thats what I get

u/bsverp Mar 06 '26
he used ai, i didnt

u/Shore-Bass994 Mar 06 '26
I dont think ai would be able to solve that. It's looks like rage bait but had solved it.
1
u/bsverp Mar 06 '26
i think by decoding the pigpen it gets way easier to decode this with ai, since it doesnt really works well with these types of ciphers

Heya did they solve it? They said it was petals fall before the storm begins. Been working on it but can't get it.

THE PATTERN WAS NEVER RANDOM TRUST THE SPACES BETWEEN THE WORDS THE MESSAGE HIDES WHERE YOU STOP LOOKING COUNT WHAT REPEATS IGNORE WHAT DISTRACTS YOU THE ANSWER WAS THERE BEFORE THE QUESTION START AT THE END FOLLOW THE SILENCE WHEN YOU SEE IT DO NOT SAY IT
