The Potato Puzzle
The ultimate challenge
Part 1: Gather and Decode
Every page footer has one puzzle line with a step and a hex bit.
Collect steps 1 through 10 and order them by step number.
Decode each step using this formula:
byte = ((bit XOR (n * 13)) + n) mod 256
where n is the step number.
Convert the 10 decoded bytes to ASCII and join them with no spaces. The result is an uppercase access key for the final part.
Solve the Puzzle to get absolutley nothing (for now)
Please don't give the answer to anyone else, or use AI to solve it. It ruins the fun!
