My guess is that project blackstone is an arcade game that will be similar in magnitude as blizzard all-stars. I'm hoping it will be some horror game in first person. I'd like to think "doom" or even resident evil. Sounds pretty cool though.

In all likelihood, this is not Titan, SC: Ghost, or anything like this. Opened a month before HOTS? Yeah, it's obviously a teaser website, like "Join the Dominon" was for WOL.

I thought this first might be the Umojan's treating Kerrigan, but now I will bet a lot that this "Project" takes place on Skygeirr, which is a Hybrid Lab. Alternatively, it's the Immortal Forge.

Some of you might remember the exterior from Blizzcon.

I think this is pretty cool. It's short on details, yet it's obvious what's going on.


Alternatively it could be Moros. Castanar is labeled as "Installation" in the editor. The picture looks more like a shipyard to me than a lab. It could be Skygeirr or Moros (Immortal Forge sounds like a Protoss thing) but I don't think that the picture is the place where these scientists are stationed.

EDIT: I just noticed Moros' "PrisonShip" Prefix. Okay, that pretty much leaves Skygeirr as the most likely candidate.

Don't expect a game announcement from this website guys, it's an online ARG (Alternate Reality Game) to promote the release of Heart of the Swarm. The writer of this ARG confirmed it on his Twitter account :

Comparing BW with SCII is like comparing a beautiful three-master sailing ship with a modern battlecruiser. Both are beautiful in their own way, both perform the same task, but they are worlds apart in how they are built and how they are steered.

Well this was meant to be an answer for a question "How to find a password?", not "what is the password?". Cipher text comes from website source code.

I don't get how to use twitter and i'm flooded with the messages of other people. Is there a way to have this updated ?

http://storify.com/QuixoticNeutral/project-blackstone/

Or is it a way on twitter to just have the tweet of the adjutant and other fictional because it's flooded with "Do you even lift" or things like that.

Doesn't look like it to me. Is twitter actually this annoying to use?

It seems the new tweets appear at the bottom of the list, which makes it not very handy.. And yes, I agree twitter is quite annoying to use.
