Hey, I'm by no means connected with the maker(s) of Zest, just wanted to give a shout for the best thing a web browser has to offer to your mind. If this thread breaks any rules delete it, but don't ban me please.

http://zestriddle.ovh.org/

It's NotPron kind of a riddle but with a really outstanding, morbid atmosphere. It will get you right at the beginning (still many get stuck on first 3 and never proceed :<). First read http://zestriddle.ovh.org/hints.htm, then if you have trouble (you WILL have trouble) go to the english official forum for hint threads. Riddles are meant to be hard, the base (72 of them) took me 3 years to finish (had like year long breaks though :p), but if you're really smart 1-3 months could be enough. Be careful, because if you get sucked in you won't be able to think about anything but the damn riddle all day (hah, a day...) long.

More general info: http://zestriddle.ovh.org/wai.htm (all the links are on the main site but I suppose it looks better if I post them ^^).

You can pm me for hints if you like.

It tells you on the hints page.

First page looks like this http://zestriddle.ovh.org/zest_riddle/one.htm

The "one" part in that link is the answer. So if you think the answer is sausages change it to sausages like this:

http://zestriddle.ovh.org/zest_riddle/sausages.htm

If it takes you to the next riddle instead of an error page you did it right

That's what I think anyway.. but honestly I have no idea how I got the answer from the picture and the text it was more of a guess really and now that I'm on the second one (I think I am anyway) I am super confused.

I think someone has spoiled the second one already in this thread but I don't see how you got that answer either :o

Maybe we can have a spoilered discussion or start a new thread to discuss each level or just do that openly here?
Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood.

What is this, viral marketing for a Nine Inch Nails release? Some of the adresses are very alike to album / song names, and the flip image has exact lyrics.

Pretty cool in any case though.

Edit; Well, close to exact lyrics, in any case.

Check the source.

Something about the blue being, white being not, which points towards the blue line fields on the image contains parts of the puzzle, while white does not. Considering the mirror.htm says mirrors lie, I've tried using both blue as guide to find words and white as guide to find words, but i find nothing that makes sense, straight-forward or reversed.

Does the green G in the reflection hold signifcance? I've tried using the words in that area straight foward and reverse, and only as parts of white / blue, to no effect.



I havent found the solution yet, but this seems pretty significant.

There was this one similar website that had a french word in it. Like overture or something. If anyone can find it, can they link it in this thread, please?

I got really far into that site.

I figured out that much, but what I want to know is how you came up with that answer O_O

It's deeper because they zoom in on the picture before it, but i was talking about the third riddle. I'm looking at the source code and found some intersting things.. but i still can't figure it out D:

Yeah same here, the source code text is just as confusing as the text on the page...
