These tips are for both the new and old players, and they need to keep them in mind so they don’t get stuck. For the new players it is a helpful guide so they can make less mistakes and have a better game experience. While, for the old players it is a kind reminder from us.
- Start with the easy brackets first: Don’t go in order. Find the most obvious clue anywhere in the puzzle and solve that to build momentum.
- Use the surrounding sentence for context: The words outside the brackets help you figure out what part of speech or type of word is needed.
- Look for wordplay and double meanings: Many clues rely on puns, idioms, or alternate definitions rather than straightforward synonyms.
- Think in layers: Solving one bracket often unlocks another. Treat it like a chain reaction instead of separate clues, like the Russian doll.
- Use the date as a hint: Since each puzzle connects to a historical event from that specific day, the calendar can point you toward the topic.
- Use “Peek” carefully: If hints are available, use them strategically to stay unstuck without spoiling the whole puzzle.
- Be precise with your answers: The game can be exact about wording, so if something doesn’t fit, reconsider the phrasing.
- Check the tutorial if needed: The help section explains how the nested system works.
