> Yeah, ignore my illiteracy /j. but guess what I JUST LEARNED. it wasn’t originally from the indie game, but from a tabletop role-playing game version made in 1999 the psychological thriller “The Swap”), whitch was adapted into said indie-game we know today in said book. so that makes sense, pointed out by @Klarac, btw thanks for it klarac; “memory bloc : When we were 17 Each entity is unique. Together they are one.” which is interesting noting that the void mother is known for cloning and puppeteering people to infiltrate, and on top of it, the quote from Da vinci, also on the image you found; “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” What does this mean? idk, but it is something we can build off of to figure out what this means. Ok I eppy now, too much brain work lol

yee, how about we trade spots, gn lol

That doesn’t clear all cache issues tho. Just basic cache but then cookies also has its own local storage that takes a lot longer to refresh sometimes. The best way I found it ctl shift R after you delete your cache history (and in very weird circumstances f12 application workers as well)

I think the code is a book-based cipher, the type where the scrambling key is some word from a page from the book. Since our mysterious characters The Architect and Ghost chose a code from their school years (they were 17 in 2002, so they’re in their forties now) to communicate while exposed, the key to find the right page in the book must be the Da Vinci aphorism (maybe a reference to Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code?), OR the words “MIND CAGE” and “SKY”.

Didn’t find any digital version of this book, unfortunately, but found the table of contents [here](https://www.editionspixnlove.com/tous-nos-ouvrages/1244-indie-game-works-9782371883437.html).

No mention to The Swappers, altough. But there’s a game named “The Collage _ **ATLAS** _”… and Sable, wich reminds very much of NMS.

Mb lol, but despite this ultimate failure of social interactions (/j), I found the “mind cage” poem from the indie game ; " She was made of flesh, not stone. And yet her face was carved into the cliff. I pressed my hands against the rock, But there was no space between us. " it is read by in-game stone statues called the watchers if this makes any sense, let me know

@cjr Don’t worry about it. Welcome to the forum, it’ll take a bit to familiarise yourself around here. This was the very first topic since it all began as well, which got pretty polluted already. Hence the attempt to start new topics for more specific discussion.

In other news, I found something interesting: going over the homepage, the live connections section has the id of “online iterations”, bringing to mind the player character in NMS. Not sure what this means, but I found it interesting. Thoughts?
