Journal 29 is a 148 pages' book providing 63 riddles.
The Idea
The need to create a book game that combines the fun of solving riddles and puzzles with the experience of interacting with a real book.
The way the book is structured provides confidence that the answers are correct before moving forward. The player cannot cheat or skip pages due to the requirement of submitting the answers online to get the keys for the next pages.
The Story
A top-secret excavation did not bring any result for 28 weeks.
It was only on the 29th week that something unexpected happened.
The team disappeared and the only thing left behind was their Journal.
Solve the riddles to solve the mystery.
