Hash 256 is a logic puzzle styled as hacking an old computer terminal: green text on black, a blinking cursor, and your answers typed out as commands before the machine prints ACCESS GRANTED.
Each puzzle is a grid of letters, some upright and some upside down, with a few rules hidden inside it. Find every one of them and the password is decoded.
THE PATTERNS
• Connected: two letters always side by side
• Inverted only: a letter that never appears the right way up
• Triple: three letters always together, in order
• Ladder: one letter always directly above another
• Long connected: two letters always the same distance apart
A pattern has no exceptions: one letter out of place anywhere in the grid rules it out. Read the grid like a book, where each row continues on the next one.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Grids from 6×6 to 10×10 and four difficulties, from easy to very hard (where the terminal won't even tell you which key is wrong)
• Greek or Latin letters, all chosen to look clearly different upside down
• A playable tutorial that teaches each pattern step by step
• One hint per puzzle
• Three looks: classic green CMD, a macOS terminal or an Ubuntu terminal, with retro sound effects
• Every puzzle is generated on your device and checked, so it hides exactly the stated number of patterns
PLAY YOUR WAY
