Cryptogram Archive

Every past daily cipher, ready to crack again. Pick a date and you get that day's quote, scrambled exactly the way every player saw it. Nothing here is recorded, so your streak and best time stay where they are.

Replay any day's cipher

The daily cryptogram is one quote a day behind one substitution cipher, shared by everyone. Once its day passes, it moves in here. The archive rebuilds each puzzle from the same seed that generated it, so the quote, the cipher and the difficulty are letter-for-letter what they were on the day.

How the archive works

Archive plays are practice. Solve as many past days as you like and none of them touch your streak, solve rate or best time — those move only when you complete the current day's puzzle. You still get three hints per puzzle, and the author is still revealed at the end.
