I need help with code 3
Hi there! For the third code…
Hi there! For the third code, the answer can be found on Cthulu's wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cthulhu). Under the "Influence" section there is a part specifically about Politics! That's where you want to look!! :)

There is a country mentioned in the "Politics" sections of the wikipedia page I mentioned earlier. Search that country with the word "President" in the catalog for your code!

Wait is it parody, should I type up parody president in the caralog
It is not parody! Your…
It is not parody! Your search should be "[Country Name] President". The country starts with P, is 6 letters long, and ends with a D!
I hope that helps and thanks for playing!

If you put the name of the city in the catalog you will bring up 3 items, Look at each of them to find the game code, but it's a massacre you seek. Thanks for playing!

I need help with code 4, i think the insect is a BEEP
I need help with code four…
I need help with code four because I found the island and the INSECT but when I searched both of them up it had no results.
You need to be searching for…
You need to be searching for 3 words: the 2-word name of the ISLAND and the one-word name for the insect. Results will come up. Thanks for playing!
Sorry, I searched up the…
Sorry, I searched up the wrong thing but now I can’t find the island even though it’s in supposed to be in the science section.
Never mind I got the code

The second clue is poorly…
The second clue is poorly worded. It asks for the name of the underwater city. I searched and it code was not in any of the 3 results. The hint asks for the name of the island it is below. I searched that and got no results.
Hi there! So if you just put…
Hi there! So if you just put the city name (starts with an "R") in the catalog it IS in one of those results - just checked again. The hint is telling you how to locate the item on the wikipedia page you are not searching for an island. Thanks for playing!
The clue for code 3 is a…
The clue for code 3 is a little misleading. The last sentence says "and search the catalog for those two things to locate a code both splendid and vile!" so I expected the code to be under the book "The Splendid and the Vile" which is one of the results when you enter the correct search terms. I found the code in another item but wondered why you would reference the splendid and vile at all.
Hello! Thanks for catching…
Hello! Thanks for catching this! This was a mistake and we have edited the clue. Thanks for playing!
