    Larry's billboards in game have a pattern on, may be relevant?

    Coordinates Sydney

    Has the one in Sydney been found yet? I am going to look for it but don't want to go and find out it's not there

    If you mean the coords from way back that clue has been solved now

    Is it always the same pattern?

    From the 3 i've seen, yes

    Edit: Update just saw a new one with a crossed sword/axe behind a shield so they do differ

    SPOILERS!! Of the future update kind and the future of this puzzle!

    Hello people, I was looking through Luke's Twitter page and I found this picture of his desktop... It has some very interesting pictures of future characters. It has some new Christmas characters but what intrigued me most was some of the other pictures that have very strong relevance to this puzzle. I can't pick anything new up but I will put it on here! https://twitter.com/pgmuscat/status/664292145440776192

    Saw the Cat Lady enthusiast, GCAP live video streams, some buttons on the pause screen that relate to that URL Picture and I imagine a few other things.

    I think i've figured out the solution to this stage, give me about 30 minutes to see if i'm right

    Ladies and Gentlemen... The solution

    If you recall when the larrylives clue came out I converted it to octal with the result being 114 141 162 162 171 114 151 166 145 163 but nothing ever came of that, until now.

    After spending a couple of hours immersed in a fantastical world where Yetis exist and door-to-door salesmen fly around in blimps (AKA Skiing Yeti Mountain) I reach level 114, the first number in the larrylives octal string and during the level come across two unassuming lines of blood in the snow...

    At level 141 in the game there are more marks in the snow but these ones are more recognisable as a symbol on the in game keypad in Land Sliders, the same goes for every other level in the string up to to level 171 (the highest number in the string of numbers).

    Translating the symbols to numbers for ease of posting they would be 3799838755 which, input into the keypad results in the following screen being displayed

    Working under the assumption that "qldcallontx" was a keyword, I tried cracking it using a traditional keyword cipher, a vigenere cipher, and a Beaufort cipher, but no results.

    Who decrypted the first secret message? How was that decrypted?

    The first message was a Vigenere Cipher with Prettygreat as the keyword, I've tried this new message with Vigenere and Beaufort decoders using the keywords prettygreat, landsliders, yeti, mountain, pgmuscat, muscat, featherweight, halfbrick, tgulrintych and larrylives

    Good job getting this far, guys. I'm still scratching my head wondering how we were supposed to get to the Yeti Mountain game based on the slide clue. It had occurred to me that the sundial keyboard might come into play since it was still in version 1.2 of the game and the USB puzzle had already been solved and removed from the game.

    Very nice! Great work! I'm glad my hunch about using octal numbers panned out.

    So we now know for sure what the "oct" part of the LarryLives clue was and we know that the "LarryLives" part was the cypher pointing you to the proper yeti levels. I assume that the "LS1.2" part simply pointed us back to the updated Land Sliders to continue the puzzle (putting to code in the sundial as well as discovering the lie pointing to the Enigma Room).

    But I still don't get what the "1.1.1" part meant.

    What about keyword "enigma"?

    How were you able to access the keypad from there? In your screenshot, you can see the keypad behind the new cypher, and behind the keypad you can see the cloud (Harp at the top, free coins button at the bottom, etc.).

    Skiing Yeti Mountain is currently on version 1.1.1, so that could be it.
