Figure out the code in this fun logic game. A phrase is given to you that is encrypted. Each letter corresponds to a different letter. In the beginning an "A" may stand for a "G." Later on down the line, you may find this is not the case. Use hints if ever you need a little help. Each hint will reveal a set of vowels within the puzzle. If you're stuck, view the letter frequencies, bigrams, and trigrams within the phrase to solve the puzzle. The Editor will have you tinkering with the letters until you get the right word, then ultimately the correct phrase. Test your logic and deduction skills along the way. The Editor is easy to grasp but hard to let down. Highly recommended for fans of Spy Words, Crosswords, Cryptoglyphic, Enscripted, Cryptoquiz, and Cryptoquote! The Editor Features: - An easy to understand interface - The ability to change single letters and restart puzzles - Hints for you to tackle difficult phrases - Bigrams, trigrams, and letter frequencies to help solve the puzzles - Multiple puzzle packs filled with a variety of challenging codes for you to solve
