Daily Cipher

A new message from Frostwynd every day, written in runes. Turn the wheel, decode it and keep your streak alive.

CIPHER

Loading today's message...

A = ᚠ

How to solve it

  1. Find today's key rune above the message.
  2. Turn the inner ring of the wheel until the key rune sits under A in the red window. Drag it, use the arrow buttons, or the arrow keys.
  3. Every rune now sits under its letter. Read the message off, one rune at a time.
  4. Type it in and press Enter. Only the letters count, so spaces do not matter.

The wheel is one of the feelies in the box, along with a map, a sealed letter and wanted posters.
