Cryptography Challenge: Discover Golem's real name, You can read the ancient texts at the end of the world! Options

[LTK]

Mmm, muscular. Golem looks really bulky as he was in Zenozoik. He's much better now. Although that robe would look really cool on him, like a pro wrestler. Too bad we never saw him in actual combat. (Brutally crushing the Hunter's skull doesn't really count.)

When I first encountered him in the game, and he stood up from his throne, I was expecting (and kind of hoping) that I'd get to fight him. If I were in Ghat's shoes, I would have been really suspicious of him and throw a fireball at him as soon as he got up. That would have made an awesome boss fight, Ghat fighting Golem in a fireball-pong sort of torch duel where Golem eventually overpowers Ghat and makes clear he doesn't want to fight.

On the other hand, fighting a boss until he runs out of health and then losing to him after all a third time might have been a bit too much.

Plain lovely. The 2003 concept looks brutal and throne golem does look a bit like a wrestler.

Thanks so much for interacting with the community like this <3

Wow too many muscles lol, i'm happy with the Kax Te you put in the game

And you have to remember the special bond golem, Ghat, and deadra share.

Edmundo, how far did you go as to add clues to the alphabet in the game? When I fought Therium I saw, surprisingly, a key hanging from his belt with the letter 'ch' on it. I thought the Family couldn't read or write?

That key was a prop / asset from the old Zenoziok game. I guess when Andres put the key on the Therium's model, he didn't pay that much attention to that. So in this case, there is no hidden message.

Anyways... if you read about Halstedom in the 'Environments of ZC' blog post you will notice how it says: "Halstedom is a city which is a mix of an older, decayed city of monolithic proportions, with another more recent layer of trash-like constructions, like a collection of pieces of machines and sculptures which were put together without much regard for what those things were really created for."

Now... given how illiterate and uneducated the citizens of Halstedom are, it is hard to believe that the older monolithic city was built by them. It is then maybe possible to deduce that this older city was built by others who did know writing, and could have left behind things with writing on them. And the citizens of Halstedom would just carry them around without ever realizing this.

Heck yeah even in the real world, some people fancy putting kanjis here and there without understandin' what they mean.

Ohh, I didn't know that. Very interesting! I'm going to read that post right now.

So, the skull tower and the half-buried, big metal boxes in the desert belong to the same civilization? They, too, don't seem to belong there. The symbol on the metal box looks like the head of one of those rodent-men of the Northern Gate Gang. Was their species the one who built the city?

Well, it was a wild and crazy ride while it lasted.

Now, are there any clues as to what Father-Mother's real name is?

Perhaps father-Mother is simply his name.

Perhaps father-Mother is simply his name.

Nah, he couldn't have been born Father-Mother, could he? Maybe we'll find out in the sequel.

[Guest_Guest_Galdi_*_*]

Wow.

I think these kind of little extras make this game different than others. It just shows how you guys really put love into your work (at least, that's how I see it).

Anyway, grats to the community for finding out and grats/thanks to you guys at ACE and especially Andres for being so awesome.

[Andres Bordeu]

...and especially Andres for being so awesome.

Hahaha! Why me? Edmundo invented the Cryptography stuff.

[PetzI]

Where can I find a completely complete legend with the alphabet? Ty

I think it was posted before. Anyways, here's the complete legenda from the SUF:

Oh, right... Kak!

I was actually refering to Edmundo, but all of you guys deserve it so keep the title if you want

Since some of the letters were bigger and had a green "check" symbol next to them, I assumed that was incomplete.

Just want to let you guys know that I was debating buying this game or not. After finding out how rich the story is and the intricacy of what you guys have planned with this project, I couldn't resist and I'm DLing it right now. Just thinking about this text is making my imagination run wild!!! OMFG 55%!!!!!! =)

Well, the game is a fighting game, not a puzzle game. The cryptography thing is not an essential part of the experience. (It's more like an easter egg). Hope you enjoy the game!

[Shakur]

Now that we know Kax-Teh is his real name, does this mean anything in Latin or greek (or something similar)?
