Locust_4457 is a self-contained compilation of puzzles with elements of cryptography, escape rooms, and some ARG tropes.
Locust_4457 aims to encapsulate the fun of solving intricate puzzles found in ARG's while keeping everything within the bounds of the game. While it's a clear homage to Cicadia3301, it's approachable to those who find such puzzles daunting, while still hopefully stumping puzzle connoisseurs
Use in-game codecs to crack various ciphers including Caesar, morse code, binary and much more.

Some puzzles will require you to look around town, interact with unique characters, and keep your eye out for anything out of the ordinary

Puzzles follow a dynamic difficulty curve and can be completed in any order. If you find yourself stuck on one, try your hand at another!
