The dev of this game is Estonian. Koni is a word for a cigarette in Estonian, which immediately makes me think about the smoker on the catwalk. No idea if this is helpful. There is also the fact that in the game you can see a lot of Estonian writing on items, so trying to use Estonian language translations of already found clues could lead to something. Oh and the Bible was the first ever text written/translated in Estonian.
Maybe idk, the password ends up revealing the name of the dude on the catwalk and he was the one that escaped the carbon steel game? (sorry for the bad grammar, english is not my first language)
My theory is that maybe the dealer is one of the creatures that was experimented on/captured. It escaped from the explosion and is now looking for revenge. Maybe?
That doesn't really make sense with the context that the dealer is not only playing by the rules, but doesn't force you to play the game or anything Though, the idea of a monster escaping containment and then immediately starting a russian roulette ring in a night club is really funny
I'm sure someone must have mentioned this, but, in old Linux stuff, "!" at the beginning of a line sometimes indicates that the text that follows is a command that is to be run by a command interpreter. And "cat " is the old Unix/Linux command to write a file to a screen. Taken together, "!cat " at some prompt might imply sending the contents of a file to the screen.
According to the ARG wiki, Rita (the ARG creator) has said that once we find the password it should be obvious, and not something that only makes sense once we try it. Although that was said a while ago and they still haven't found the password, but still. Kinda funny to imagine we might all be missing something really obvious somehow.
This will probably get buried, but I find it interesting that the white shadows in the Koni Äriksön bubble (the blue one under the phone advert) seem different from the words they are supposed to be shadowing (while trying to highlight it, I found that the words seem to be Volta Aricson (not mispelled)). I would also recommend seeing if anything comes from the favicon, though it seems to just be "$$". (I would like to be at least mentioned as the spotter if anything comes of this) (Edit: Looking at the failed passwords, it seems this Aricson tidbit was found already)
Friendly reminder that the Inferno and the rest of the Divine Comedy was written in the commoners Venitian Italian not Latin. The work is notable in literary history because it made Italian a literary language. Hope this helps in some way!
Did anyone else pay attention to the really fast disclaimer at the beggining, it has a few grey letters in the text and wondered if they meant anything.
Yeah the greyed out letters spell out a bitly link which takes you to a weird gif of a "totally real" fnaf x Minecraft crossover. I don't think it means anything unfortunately.
maybe you need to specifically look at the volta of the e-mail poem? In this instance, it feels like the "turn" happens in line 8: "and still it brings more comfort"
Just a handy tidbit of info regarding Carbon Steel: the "monsters" in that game are actually animals that've been immensely warped by the intense pressures of the depths to the point of unrecognizability. The "execs" within the game stated that they were doing experiments to see how subterranean pressures cause severe mutations on surface-dwelling lifeforms. And if you choose not to try and escape (yes, there is a choice), the guys up top will say that because of your testing expertise, they've decided to make your character the first *human* test subject to undergo this process. Then, you're knocked out by someone from behind, and when you wake up, where are you now? That's right, the *same* test tube that you've been pulling the creatures up with, going through the *same* test of being sedated and having data extracted from you. I feel like Tom (more or less, intentionally or not) neglected to mention this bit of info, and that it adds some extra context to what's going on-
Could it partially have something to do with the player character from Carbon Steel? It was confirmed that the poem isn't a poem but a "What am I?" riddle. In that sense the first line "(1) they won't ever forgive me or will i not forgive myself. i made a wish upon a falling star and it brought me nothing but misery." would refer to the player realeasing the monsters that killed and forced them into 'the shutdown'. The wish would make most sense referring to the players wish to earn a years worth of money in the three days of working in the facility. "(2) the machine hungers" while it is a bit of a stretch to say that its the machine used to pull creatures up from the pit it could also mean..."(3) fed by booming shots" In this instance instead of a loud noise booming would have to mean the forceful/powerful or crazy high amounts of anesthesia used to knock the creatures out during testing. After this I started drawing blanks and couldn't come up with anything for lines 4-9. If this makes any sense please lmk because everything else I've come up with like "slot machine", "war" "gambling" has already been tried as the password and did not work.
to be fair, the ARG creator made sure we didn't. if we did, the password would be changed or something (this was a warning in the official Critical Reflex Discord server, the publishers of BSR Stream ver.)
Thanks for keeping attention to BR ARG! Since i found "The Shutdown" key and dropped the solved cipher to CR discord, we still didn't even step forward, so we definately need help here
Side note 619 is for San Diego CA, it was created in 1982, then split in 97, and again in 99.Not important probably but I didn't see anyone mention it in case anyone outside the US was curious and maybe the year can be helpful or help with locations somehow.
Me sitting here knowing I will very likely not contribute anything to this and will just continue to wait until the next game theory: “I could solve that.” (Edit: thank you @koji6745 for correcting me, I apologize for my horrible grammar :P)
Just a thought but at 16:10 (I think) the only machinery visible when we get our reward.. (yes the one that looks like Braille tbh i don't even know if I'm correct lol)... Kinda looks like a very good hint.. it just draws my eyes to the constant changes of the bright dots ngl. There are also a few other machines with the same dots..
And in the 1M vid itself when the guy goes through the first door, you can see some colors flashing right next to the person at the railing... It feels too specific to be a render glitch or smth, especially given there is a cut and when you're next to that guy, the place where this light should come from, you can't see anything there...
I have some information that may help; I was playing casually when i started too have very bad luck, I was on the second round of normal mode when I died, I thought it would send me back too the main menu like it usually does, but it cut too my character in the bathroom of the club being brought too life by a shadowy figure (who I guess might be the same figure that we see in the hallway smoking at the beginning of the game) anyways, the figure explains how we are lucky he had a defibrillator on hand, then says “get up, the night is still young”. When you then go back too the roulette room, the dealer says “welcome back” and resumes us on the second round without having too sign the waiver again.. it might be nothing, but I haven’t really seen this mentioned online, and was surprised when it happened in my playthrough… So I figured I would share.
hold up if you go to 19:51 in the video there is a clock saying 1016 i know its a big hunch but it popped in to my mind (i could very much be wrong but its worth a try)
idk why but i have a feeling its all the games that feel connected combined into 1 password, and the earliest game goes first, like if this game is released earlier, it will be at first in the password, you can try underscores, spaces and whatever.
At this point are we suppose to love or hate FNAF for being not the spawner of Mascot Horror Games, but the spawner for the Most Vague sometimes pointless senseless hidden lore on the ones who got inspired to make the most convoluted lore finding possible
I was a sad when matpat retired but i will admit the new voice actor/theorizer/successor to matpat is doing a good job keeping the channel bright and like it used to be so fantastic job
you should do cats are liquid and start with ABP! it has a fandom, lots of lore, unsolved mysteries, disturbing backstories, and its really good and very cute
In the DISCLAIMER 0:36 Text has some darker letters they were : b i l L y 4 f S n 5 A 3 But in a single frame the 5 is different l don't know what that was Also the voice don't say all the monologue when slow down
This guy is actually doing such a good job after matpat. Must be hard for him but he is doing it impressively. Props to this guy for filling such big shoes.
We can assume that the phone will be used to translate a string of numbers into letters or a string of letters into numbers. (but probably numbers into letters). Try using it as a decoder on anything that may look like a clue. (even on things you already used. nothing stops the creator from using the same clue for multible things as they created their own cypher with the phone) Anther note: This kind of developer (that makes ARG's more hard that they intend) tend to put much more clues than you think - and they also tend to pick each word they say carefully. Go throw anything they wrote in the discord and patch notes of their games, maybe you will notice a pattern.
The smoker is the last player of Buckshot roulette, and he smokes the cigarettes that the dealer gives you during the game. Cigarettes that give you back your health back.
0:42 during that bit in the beginning where its has that sort of infomercial type side affects list thing off colored letters spelled out “bitLy4fSn5A3” no idea what that means tho
I'm not sure if this has been thought about yet or not, but apparently, Sony Ericsson phones used to have secret menus you could access. Not sure if this would translate to the game/website phone or password, though. In order to access the secret menu and mobile software version, you'd have to hit the arrow keys and the Asterix button in a specific order (right, *, left, left, *, left, *). There were other codes and menus besides this one. Sorry if this isn't helpful.
Another theory: The dealer is another victim who has trauma from playing the last dealers game and took his spot to ease the trauma. Edit: most likes ive ever gotten 😃
So the line about "making a wish upon a falling star" is talking about making a deal with the devil right? maybe we're looking for a specific demons name? something closely associated with greed, maybe Mammon? don't know much about demonology.
If it’s to do with a specific demon’s name, then it is worth noting that Satan does connect with the game (weather that be literal or metaphorical, like god) because, there are a few names that the game doesn’t let you use as they’re already on waivers, these are “Dealer” “God” and surprise surprise “Satan”, however, there is only reasonable proof that God (weather literal or metaphorical) died, which means that it’s likely that “Satan” both played and won the game
What if the "we have all we need to solve it" doesn't mean the way to solve it is in the games and trailers, but in the ARG itself? Maybe by encrypting a known word in B64, or taking a phrase or word from the biblical passages? Seems like everyone is so busy with ingame they're neglecting inlife.
I don’t know if it relates but in Dante’s inferno the judge of the dead is king Midas who sends them down the opposite of bringing them up. After inferno they go to purgatory. The goal of inferno in some guesses is to rescue bellatristia, or bellatrix (depending on version, probably misspelled). The hungry could refer to the gluttony greed level and either the rules or a member there like Cerberus. Dante’s guild in the inferno is Virgil. Just a few inferno tidbits hope this helps.
Here's some ideas I have: The registration number on the Koni screen and the text letters of the phone might be related. If we're diving into Carbon Steel, much of that involved different formulas and ratios needed for the drugs involved. Perhaps something form there is involved.
I have been holding back watching the new game theory videos because i grew up with having MatPat but so far you are doing great trying to fill his shoes keep up the good work.
My half awake brain: "Smart kitten", button that says cat, line with wolf... I'd be checking Dante's Inferno, the bible and voltas for anything relating to large felines as my jumping off point for passwords
18:00 The only letters missing on the phone is W, X, Y, and Z, this could just be a coincidence or a giggle but it could mean something, like the last four letter of the alphabet are missing like the four last whatever’s a missing from something

0:42 during that bit in the beginning where its has that sort of infomercial type side affects list thing off colored letters spelled out “bitLy4fSn5A3” no idea what that means tho
Its a bit/ly. Url link
It's a link usually used by mobile games to redirect you to their app, or! A redirect to a website or smtg
Nvm i tried i dont think?
You can try
Maybe a link?
I think my last comment was deleted, and yes, it is a link, usually a redirection.
The amount of bullet they had to dodge to get all infos was probably huge.
I'm not sure if this has been thought about yet or not, but apparently, Sony Ericsson phones used to have secret menus you could access. Not sure if this would translate to the game/website phone or password, though. In order to access the secret menu and mobile software version, you'd have to hit the arrow keys and the Asterix button in a specific order (right, *, left, left, *, left, *). There were other codes and menus besides this one. Sorry if this isn't helpful.
Can't wait to see the update video and theories after the recent info dump and password find.

That's fortnite bro
No no no because I thought this too at the mention of it! There's a lot of religious indications. Pandoras box is what popped up in my brain

YOOOOOOO finally an Enter the Gungeon reference? Hope you do a full episode on the game’s lore, it’s a lot deeper than it looks.
Not the light almost leaving my eyes when I saw the title 😭 I’m too used to these videos solving EVERY mystery
I’m excited for when they get ahold of gravity falls lore, especially since the book of bill came out and bill’s website
Buckshot Roulette became one of my favorite indie games, and I didn't even know about the ARG.
"I wished upon a falling star" with all the bible references wouldn't this be the devil or am I crazy?
Another theory: The dealer is another victim who has trauma from playing the last dealers game and took his spot to ease the trauma.
Edit: most likes ive ever gotten 😃

That's a good theory
No
The dealer isn't human. He has a floating head, and a pair of floating hands. He's not a human at all.
I'm suprised that game theory has not done mr hopps playhouse
What's that meant to mean
and i'm surprised that they didn't make a video about valle verde
"monsters deep within the earth" sounds like the monsters came from the 9 circles
maybe these monsters are actually demons?
In the disclaimer part it says "bitLy4fSn5A3" on the Grey numbers and letters 3:35
So the line about "making a wish upon a falling star" is talking about making a deal with the devil right? maybe we're looking for a specific demons name? something closely associated with greed, maybe Mammon? don't know much about demonology.
If it’s to do with a specific demon’s name, then it is worth noting that Satan does connect with the game (weather that be literal or metaphorical, like god) because, there are a few names that the game doesn’t let you use as they’re already on waivers, these are “Dealer” “God” and surprise surprise “Satan”, however, there is only reasonable proof that God (weather literal or metaphorical) died, which means that it’s likely that “Satan” both played and won the game
What if the "we have all we need to solve it" doesn't mean the way to solve it is in the games and trailers, but in the ARG itself? Maybe by encrypting a known word in B64, or taking a phrase or word from the biblical passages? Seems like everyone is so busy with ingame they're neglecting inlife.
16:30 i think this phrase might be the dealer's thoughts, as hes invincible but may want to dissipate or stop living.
I don’t know if it relates but in Dante’s inferno the judge of the dead is king Midas who sends them down the opposite of bringing them up. After inferno they go to purgatory. The goal of inferno in some guesses is to rescue bellatristia, or bellatrix (depending on version, probably misspelled). The hungry could refer to the gluttony greed level and either the rules or a member there like Cerberus. Dante’s guild in the inferno is Virgil. Just a few inferno tidbits hope this helps.
Do you mean Beatrice? Isn’t she more a benevolent force saving Dante from damnation by way of sending Virgil to save him?
13:18 Reminds me of MrBeast. Including the downfall.
I wonder how many osha violations each chapter of batim would have, you guys should consider checking it out!
What does that mean
The Batim
@@DinoRickyBendy and the ink machine
I’ve been waiting for you guys to cover this!
“I am one hUUUnndred percent *HUH?* “ best line of the vid
Honestly this is crazy, so far out and insane,i don’t think there’s actually any lore, it’s just a fun game
Here's some ideas I have:
The registration number on the Koni screen and the text letters of the phone might be related.
If we're diving into Carbon Steel, much of that involved different formulas and ratios needed for the drugs involved. Perhaps something form there is involved.
good idea ill try sum
I have been holding back watching the new game theory videos because i grew up with having MatPat but so far you are doing great trying to fill his shoes keep up the good work.
My half awake brain: "Smart kitten", button that says cat, line with wolf... I'd be checking Dante's Inferno, the bible and voltas for anything relating to large felines as my jumping off point for passwords
so much ARG's, EVERYWHERE!

I'm suprised GT did not fall off when out figurative lord and saviour matpat left.

Don't listen to him, he's trying to distract us from Gravity Falls.
ARE YOU SURE Δ

The only letters missing on the phone is W, X, Y, and Z, this could just be a coincidence or a giggle but it could mean something, like the last four letter of the alphabet are missing like the four last whatever’s a missing from something
PLEASE HELP WITH BILL CIPHER!!
He can't, go on the website and type in theory
How would that work for the channel?
Logically, wouldn't they need to create "Book Theory"?

I need a theory now! In FNAF security breach, there is an arcade game called chica’s feeding frenzy, that is just unable to be powered off. Why?
