By the way, your custom signed puzzle, has at least two solutions. The one you show, and another more difficult solution.

[@FelipeZabala]

Here’s a thought: after solving a puzzle why don’t you do a stream with the creator so they can walk us through their process of creation and the mechanisms behind the puzzles. That’d be fire.

[@ancaomhnoirrua]

Heck yes!! Brilliant idea!!

[@TheThaiLife]

Great idea

[@CourtesyoftheD]

how about a movie where he discovers his love for puzzles, begins solving more complex puzzles and giving lore on where his love for puzzles and methods of working them come from, and inevitably he'll end up unknowingly solving a puzzle that saves humanity

[@shable1436]

Chris did that with Japan trip, the OG of puzzle boxes, these new guys coming up are great in their own way, but there's so many different types of them it's hard to travel all over just to interview. Most have their own sites and channels, my favorites are the metal shop puzzles, precision, and it feels good in your hands, the weight, the feeling you can't break it is awesome

[@boardmandave]

Great idea

[@indoraptor5807]

21:26 That is actually a Ceasar cipher and it's basically the alphabet shifted a few letters backward or forwards. So let's say we have the word "captain" and we want to make it a Ceasar cipher. First, we need to decide how many letters forward or backward we want to shift it. Let's be simple and shift it one letter forward. That means that "c" would become "d", "a" would become "b" and so on. And in the end, from the word "captain" you get "dbqubjo". And btw it says "Horses of the sea. there shall be three. Wardens of the 'CIPHER' wrote. Hidden in the navigation note."

It's a caesar cipher with a -1 shift

[@schtoobs]

Thanks for showing these puzzle boxes. I could never afford one so it's nice to be able to experience them like this. The high quality of your presentation, the mood-setting intros, the camera setups and video editing all make for as good as an experience as can be had without having the puzzles in my own hands. All it cost me is an optional click of the 'like' button. Great stuff.

[@Azelethros_OG]

I think it would be so cool if you did a super long video down the line and do all of the puzzles together for this awesome saga of Nemo. Like a full length movie of epic puzzle solving. Could even run with some kind of epic cinematic theme with it to. Just my random thought lol. Love ya Chris, you do amazing work, and I greatly enjoy every one of your videos. Stay awesome!

I loved every piece of this puzzle, but the compass and map part is just pure genius! Kudos to the creators!

[@joshuamccann9186]

I would push the plunger in fast and see if the added pressure does anything. Ps. Air pressure being involved shows the precision in Craftsmanship of this puzzle. Then you throw in the manipulation of a legitimate compass... It's truly a work of art!!

[@rob1016ny]

It’s been a while since I got stuck down your rabbit hole. The QUALITY of your videos have grown immensely. The stories to go along with make me feel invested. Well played Sir. This is a nice twist on the topic of puzzles.

[@theraVen27]

Went from “that’s cool, but simple” To “WOW” real quick here. What a master puzzle maker. Just incredible

[@pedrorodrigueziii4859]

To imagine how the mind of this puzzle maker works is beyond me. It's such a fantastic combination of imagination, ingenuity, craftsmanship, and execution.

[@MillerSean]

Would love to see you visit Jesse's workshop like you did with your recent trip to Japan. The craftsmanship that goes into these puzzles is amazing!

[@phoenix1114]

Dude thank you so much for not chopping this down to 15 mins to please the “instant gratification” generation. This is the $hit that made me start watching and liking every damn video you put out! I loved this puzzle video and can’t wait for the follow up to it! Please continue to do what you do best and full send this $hit!

[@claires1063]

Why do you people have to constantly shit on Gen Z? I'm in food service, and I can assure you that Boomers and Gen Xers are far more interested in "instant gratification".

[@xxxthestuffxxx]

This - it's the process that's so interesting, along with the solution

[@phoenix1114]

First off I said nothing about a certain generation. I used no labels or specifications. And it’s facts that almost every creator has to adapt and change they’re videos to shorten and get to the “juicy” parts of a video quicker because retention times drop after a certain point in time. So there is in fact a “instant gratification” generation but that doesn’t necessarily mean that’s it’s gen x, y, or z or whatever. So maybe jusssstttttt maybe before going on the defensive and start with the “you people’s” just be more open minded and if you read something you disagree with try engaging in open dialogue and conversation. The point of my comment was originally about how much I enjoyed Chris’ video but has now been hijacked into a generational difference thing I guess 🤷‍♂️

[@snowsheldon77]

@@claires1063 such a Gen Z response! 🤦‍♂️ 😂

[@zupergurkan]

​@@phoenix1114so you're happy he didn't shorten the video for the boomers?😂 I'm gen z and I love Chris's videos

[@lox1ey176]

[@user-rk3zb8nl3f]

So glad you are back to making puzzle solve vids. Not only is your content enthralling it is also entertaining and so professionally produced.

[@johncage5368]

I think that's a new first place in your puzzle collection. Beautiful design and materials, supporting the backstory perfectly, That can easily be imagined to sit in the captains cabin on the Nautilus. Unusual great ways to solve certain steps. Marvelous piece.

[@jammkins]

The cipher at the end is much easier than you think! Just write down the letter that precedes each letter in the cipher! "Horses of the sea. There shall be three. Wardens of the cipher wrote. Hidden in the navigation note."

[@amethystwinstryg9590]

Glad I'm not the only one who got that. I was just playing around with the letters and figured out the pattern.

[@brianegendorf2023]

Any time I see a cryptogram type puzzle, I automatically look for "there" or "Where". In this case, once I found that..I was like, "wait..its just shifted over a letter..it can't be..thats too insultingly simple"...then I checked, and it was. I am not trying to boast. I don't consider myself that smart. But this was the most obvious cryptogram I've ever seen.

[@mcgyverrr4544]

Ah, I was looking in the comments for someone else who saw the pattern!

[@RichAdase]

Then... if you look at all of the capital letters in the note that should not be capitalized (i.e.- ignore names, the word "I", etc.) you get CRYPTEX... whatever that means...

[@Jirodyne]

@@brianegendorf2023 It was simple, too simple. I thought it was a Keyword Cipher at first, with the letters being shifted by the keyword Kryptos. But that didn't work, so I tried Caesar Cipher, shifting the letters by different numbers, starting with 3, cause that's what the site defaulted to, then 2, then 1, and suddenly words lol

[@user-rd4ol9ez8v]

Code on the letter appears to be 'one letter after the displayed letter' so THE becomes UIF and so on (or the real letter is one before the code letter if you are solving it from the code)

[@ChrisRamsay52]

OH MY GOD!!!

[@JadenVixe]

@@ChrisRamsay52 Just in case in wasn't picked up, and is later important - it was Wardens of the Cipher, not Wardens of the Fisher - which maybe pointed to using the surname in the final code?

Welcome back buddy. Thanks for being open and transparent about the struggle physically and emotionally with the “burnout syndrome” you spoke about in a recent video. Shows your self worth is measured from within and take a break when necessary. Rest is not weakness and looks like you’re having fun and that’s what life is for. 🎉

This is the coolest puzzle I have seen, so much detail into such a small box. So dope!!

[@josephmelnick3446]

Loved the artistic lead in story. It really helps set the mood, and lend some mystery to the story as well as insinuate questions about the government's role and motives. You physical and logical skills in solving this are at wizard level. Super praises to the designer for that crazy magnetic sliding decoder linked to the compass and map. My mind has been NUKED! THANKS for taking me on this journey with you! I look forward to the next steps!

[@AdamZimmer00]

The noise you made when the suction first stopped working is pure joy. Love this puzzle

[@slvroni]

love the cipher. always love ciphers. I seriously thought you were off track with the solve of that. I thought it was going to be a further physical sequence/maze where you adjust the drawer so that the needle matches up with the order of the written lines, which are obviously not in order so you would make it face SE, E, NW, W, SSE. and then ta-da magically something else is unlocked you didn't even know to look for

[@Chris-oq6kn]

Why do i get a feeling there was more to this puzzle. Or something missed. Was the last piece just the map

[@JeffGreenNV]

That's exactly what we thought. That did not feel like the end of the puzzle at all.

[@rathermousie]

Thank you for another great video! I paused the video and tried the cipher myself. I got almost the same thing except I got 'warden of the cipher' instead of 'warden of the fisher'. That is based off the entire alphabet being shifted by one letter. Also starting with 'the' I noticed that U being T, H being I, and F being E made the pattern of each letter representing its proceeding letter. Did anyone get it the same way?

[@scallywagthepirate]

It’s a ROT1 cipher

[@manda20077]
