Product Description

Product Description

Secret messages, encoded predictions, cryptic clues...- never have cryptogram puzzles been so popular, fuelled by phenomena like the "Da Vinci Code" and "Bible Code" Here at last is a giant collection of brainteasing cryptograms and other enciphered challenges, to satisfy all levels of puzzle aficionado. There are over 400 encoded puzzles, showing just how varied cryptograms can be. From easy substitution-code puzzles - messages or quotations in code where each letter stands for another - to fiendishly difficult ciphers solvable by one person only with difficulty, there is enough here to intrigue the sharpest of minds. And the more you solve, the better you get! The book includes a helpful section of general tips and pointers for solving cryptograms. Plus, to ensure the challenge never ends, details of the most famous unsolved real-world cryptograms, including the "Dorabella cipher", "Kryptos fourth section", "Zodiac killer ciphers", "Linear A", "Phaistos Disk", "Rongorongo script" and "Chaocipher" are featured.
