I put soy sauce in the ink well. Thought you should know.
Delish
Question is: where is the ink now?
I knew it lol I didn’t know it
It’s what the Chinese used to write with back when.
I bet that paper tastes great.
Can we all just stop and appreciate the amount of effort Chris puts into these epic intros? You‘re amazing bro
I feel the same so much work goes into these intros yet I feel so few truly appreciate them
Yes
not only the intro, but this whole video is a work of art! truly astonishing.
Top quality at everything else than PUZZLE SOLVING!
they keep improving everytime, actual quality youtube videos
"I'll start taking notes right now. This is my first note, it's a question mark. As you can see, it's a question mark cause I don't know what's happening." ME IN CLASS
Sooooo, after 10 months this still has no replies?

Hint: What TYPE of art?
Chris: Mona Lisa!!!
peep his juul at about 22 mins in
I knoow 😂 i was also screaming LATIN at him. but he figured it out in the end, so it's all good
"oooh, TYPE of art... Painting! =D"..... *facepalms*
yeah there were a couple painful moments in this one... it's like come on dude especially with the hints it's not hard haha
@@addangel Same lol
"Even though the hint didnt really help me"
**repeats the hint to himself like a mad man while trying to figure out the puzzle**
Davinci: (Returns home) Ah, I can't wait to finish my codex!
Chris: Actually master, I already solved it for you
Davinci: Say sike right now.
Jacob Cabrera hahahahaha
Jacob Cabrera hahahahaha

Continue the hahaha streak
hahhaha

Didn't know Davinci's apprentice was a heavily tattooed RUclipsr
Hahahaha
not to make fun of them, but, why all of the tattoos?
Haha
Heavily tatoooed *Magician*
@@soonersciencenerd383 because, why not? He had the money, ideas of what he wanted, and he wanted them. That’s valid enough, and he looks fucking awesome
puzzle makers: They will need to figure out the meaning of the letters
Chris: Let's just move em and try to pop it open.
This to me looks more like a portable escape room rather than a puzzle box. So weel crafted and with such an interesting background story...
“I’m not gonna use the timer, I’m just gonna enjoy myself” Sir Chris, are you sure it’s not because you broke your timer when you chucked it?
Shelby Baby when did that happen?
When was that?
He once used his phone as a timer
Oof idk when that was 😅
nah it’s cuz they didn’t have timers in da Vinci’s time
Chris: "DaVinci? The Mona Lisa, right?"
some guy: yyyesss..?
Chris: "Alright Thank you."
Level of insanity: What do this 4 movable things do? They move.
LMAO 🤣 🤣 🤣
Chris Ramsay has got the MOST patient vibe of all time. If this was me, I would have grabbed an axe by now.
Same
If I were him I would have burned it to ash
I'd 1000% scream first
Im sure you wouldn't if you actually had to pay for that puzzle though, probably expensive
right? i would’ve thrown it across my room lol
22:33 he says "what would you guys do?"
Me:"Well I would've quit by now"
Fun fact: Davinci wrote backwards partly to make it harder for people to understand his notes but also because he was left handed and writing from right to left prevented smudging
Wise people are left handed
He also used codes messing up the words
Chris: *trying to figure out the bridge puzzle*
me: There's a comma tHERE'S A COMMA TH-
Craftmanship: 10/10
Story: 10/10
Chris finding his way in the maze, mid-sentence "ooooH!": 11/10
Give me the Timestamp! That's an order!
Did anyone else notice the "invention" that Chris didn't spend much time looking at, in the paperwork hidden in the last puzzle? It's a laser cutter -- the tool that was used to manufacture this puzzle.
It could be the Machine that Davinci, designed to manufacture Gold (AU) from Lead (PB) by compressing sunlight through Lenses, and other parts. As this is depicted in the movie "Hudson Hawk" Eddie The Hawk. performed by the famous U.S. actor B.Willis. If you remember the movie you could easily recognise the top secret mechanism. but it's not easy. :-)
@@alexandrebotev5038 nope, it's a lazer burner. You can stop and see its engraving a rune on a peice of wood
@@alexandrebotev5038
Lenses is an later invention, someone in Netherlands did that several hundreds of years later.
That was the first time humans realize there was microscopic creatures in the water and so, and it started with single lenses in the beginning.
Yeah! It is. :)
I noticed that too!
If Chris ever buys your puzzle box you know that you’ve made it in the puzzle box world.
I know this is pretty late for this video, but I thought “renaissance” was the word for the word puzzle. The type of paintings Da Vinci normally did were renaissance paintings and Italy started the renaissance era.
Only had an idea of this because of a food history class in college.
That’s what I thought too actually.
I’m surprised there wasn’t that many adds on such a long video. The lack of as many ads really helped me stay with the story line. Overall an amazing video thanks
It also shows he’s not doing RUclips only for money
I didn’t have any adds
Edit: I didn’t because I had yt red at the moment lol
I know I was shocked when there was no adds
The Beginning - “Obviously I’m not gonna use the hints.” Two minutes later: “Ok, let’s use a hint.” 😂
To be fair, he was about to break the puzzle in half
He basically used it to double check the rules so I'm gonna give him a pass there
Well, it was two minutes for us, i guess he spend some more time with it ;)
Who needs hints when you have a _flammenwerfer?_
yeah he used the internet as always to get those sudden AH HA solves.
It was mildly frustrating as he worked out the language was Latinbut continued to try and spell painting in Italian along with trying to spell Mona Lisa; and after solving it he said the hints barely helped..they helped ton he just was stuck on using the wrong language lol
This book looks so beautiful and nicely crafted
Actually, at the time Da Vinci was alive nobody spoke latin in italy... so, the hint was not so correct
I'm glad you think it was only mildly because I thought it was very
When did he say the hints barely helped?? Chris specifically said that the clues should be mandatory reading for everyone trying the puzzle & that he wouldn't have gotten far without them.
@@medea27 he says it at 27:15.
Chris: am I supposed to remember all fo this? I hope not but I fear the answer's yes
Me, screaming at the screen: IT LITERALLY SAYS TO HAVE A PAPER FOR NOTES FFS
Chill, it’s a puzzle
I would watch a whole netflix series about Da Vinci's apprentice.

@@TheJhartge that's nice Jenny, but you probably shouldn't have a RUclips account at 7. Stay safe here, alright?
sameee
as a fact da vinci used to write things backwards, but it was not so that others couldnt read them but because he was left- handed and back at his time left-handed people were not taught seperatly how to write so he just whote like the others but from the right because it was more comfertable for him)))
Edit: How is this getting so many likes? what the heck
ok
*oK*
ok
He also did it so not to smudge the ink
ok
Me: “I’d love to get these puzzles and do them myself”
Puzzles: *cost a fortune*
Me: “Oh ok”
Yeah
It's like the price of a video game console or like a standard 40" TV. Not a loaf of bread for sure but it's nothing crazy. Pretty reasonable considering the amount of work put into it and the customization options.
@@patsayjack402 true true! I posted the comment before looking up the puzzle as more of a joke lol. But after I looked it up, I saw that it’s actually a very fair price for such a detailed puzzle
@@patsayjack402 some do cost a few hundred dollars or more, not everyone has money for that.
The sad part here is that these premium puzzles are often easier to solve than many of the simple puzzles. It's sort of like the press x to not die video games these days, expensive and flashy, but predictable and not much actual gameplay involved. Cheap puzzles that you can contemplate over for days have spoiled me I suppose.
19:26
i thought that those clues were pretty straight forward. "what type of art is the master famous for? (meaning that he is still famous for it) what language WAS (meaning Latin. Latin is considered a dead language) his country known for..."
the second hint just was referring to the spaces
That one was the most obvious of the clues presented but still required either knowing a dead language or looking up what "painting" is in a dead language. Having to turn to google isn't a great way to solve something.
@@ForeverLaxx That's true.
Look I’m Italian and I’ve studied Latin for 5 years. I have no idea how someone was supposed to get that puzzle without the hint. There should be something to make you think about the solution without using hints
The sentence on the side of the maze read :
"Follow the guiders, then point the way"
trying to figure out that was an ordeal because I had to forward and rewind the video so many times.
But thought you should know
he says the hints were necessary but the main times he needed them were because he wasn't using the suggested object and chose brute force over translating the runes
Found the same translation. Took so loong, he kept putting his fingers in the way!!
wow
I spent an hour on this, and came up with "FOLLOW THE ****R**, THEN *O**T THE W*N" just from seeing patterns and sheer guessing. After seeing what you came up with, I think the answer is supposed to be "follow the guiders 'THEY' point the way". The last runes in "They" and "Way" are the same, not different. Nice work!
@@jordanholley8146 yeah you were right, just looked back at the video, nice catch
Why am I SO into this !!? History, philosophy, puzzles, period costumes, and Chris? All of my favorite things wow.
Period costumes?
"The line in the top with a dude doing a back-flip". I think DaVinci thought exactly on a dude doing a backflip to create this symbol. 😂
Imagine closing the entire puzzle only to find out you've accidently forgotten to put the last pages of paper in 😭😭

"I don't know how long it's going to take me"
forty-three minutes and thirty-four seconds, sir.
34:38 I heard the click of him turning the book, and, thought it was resetting itself. I was about to die laughing at the fact that he accidentally reset his own work. And, then, he went back to his progressed spot, and, I breathed relief.
According to the web site there is also a 7 page variant of this puzzle. I look forward to Chris deciphering the extra two pages. Excellent video
Davinci was basically saying at the end “you can’t finesse a finessa”.
A huge wooden book made of several puzzles stacked and hinged together as "pages" with runic script...AND a self-contained narrative printed inside? Never thought anything this crazy could be done on a physical puzzle. This is like creating a real-life Devil Crash pinball table with moving monster figures, bonus side tables and everything!
chris makes it look like its a movie not a puzzle video with all of the effort he made for this intro
Him: what is Italy known for???
Me: PiZzA
I would say its cause it used to be part of Rome, the ancient civilization. So there's that.

When you got to the decoder section and identified the runes on the previous puzzle I immediately remembered that it would be backwards because davinci wrote from right to left to avoid smudging the ink cause he was left handed.
Solve the runes in the circular page: "Don't forget to drink your ovaltine."
“A crummy commercial?? Son of a b*tch!”
This is my favorite video of yours. Great vids man! Very fun puzzle!
DaVinci wrote his notes backwards. So the reverse writing makes sense.
Did he do that so people couldn’t read it??
The Restoration of Dr Who possibly. I’ve also heard it may be due to being left handed, so would avoid smearing the ink and getting it on his hand. Could be a bit of both.

"We're going to use the back of this as our paper" ... literally has paper right under the puzzle
I was annoyed by that, I feel like it ruins the beautiful paper that came with it :/

I love this puzzle. The way you create a story out of several of these puzzles always amazes me. Half the reason I watch the puzzles anymore is specifically for the dope ass intros you make. You can tell you put a lot of effort into making these, and it's for US! So..Thank you Chris! You're really an inspiration to so many ^.^
Wow I am DROOLING over this puzzle. I want one so BAD! It's gorgeous and so in depth especially with the story and cryptic language. Tempted to drop the $300 for it.
Bill Gates bought Da Vinci's original notebook for like 30 million or something, crazy.
Echo Lotus same!
Hazel Macaraig do you have a fetish for hard puzzles or what?
@@NoBounceForYeiden What kind of question is that? Lol.
I'd love to own one of these, but as with every puzzle I watch Chris solve, I hate that I become mesmerized and watch the video. I'd rather own a puzzle and solve it myself before watching someone solve it for me, because it then becomes nowhere near as fun.
That notebook was worth it
I straight up want Chris to make a movie or short film, his camera work and choice in music is so well done.
I love watching these puzzle videos just for the mystery and story he puts behind them, it makes them fascinating and intriguing.
I really enjoy your pre-solution presentations that set the mood/storyline for each particular puzzle. I see you put a lot of work into them for our entertainment. Thank you.
Well produced as usual. I'll admit I'm not the closest subscriber but whenever your videos show up in my feed I make sure to give a look as your videos are always top quality. Keep up the good work man!
I would say I'm impressed by the intro, but all your Intros are well made and impressive.
I think, by far, this puzzle is my fave! Thank you for such astonishing intros! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Blends perfectly well with the genre of the puzzle your solving, plus the sound effects.

I'm just going to throw this out there. I know it isn't your type of thing, but I'd like to see you work through it.
There's a video game, called The Witness. It is a game that consists entirely of puzzles. They vary greatly, and imo, they are pretty difficult. Rarely do you get any hints. Check it out, and see if you may consider doing a video on it.

I recently discovered this channel and started binge watching your videos. I love the unique intros you make and your commentary.
I think this is my favorite so far! Thank-you, Chris.
I wish you had a little 'frustration meter' in one of the corners to show how frustrated you are getting when doing these puzzles.
Johnny Whitsel I’m gonna use this but credit you as the person who originally thought of it is that okay?

Leonardo was also known to write in his notebook in reverse to hide his secrets better, aka mirror writing.
An old Leo the best leet speaker of his age
I got to know through da Vinci code
Actually he was left handed and as most know writing left handed is very messy so he wrote backwards as to not make a mess of himself or smear his writing. Tho most do believe it was an act of secrecy so no one could steal his discoveries.
@@kasadilaman6122 being left handed doesn't make your writing messy it is controlled by a different hemisphere so it is a different architecture to the writing and can if properly taught (it isn't) be just as neat and of fine point. There is no actual correlation to left handedness and messiness, only in the way writing is taught.
(Your pulling shit out your ass)
Edit: while the real reason is in contestion it probably was just to be different, he was human you know.
@@Laachen I didn't say his handwriting was messy according to historians it was actually very neat but writing from left to right as a left handed person can prove to be difficult especially when working with ink this coming from someone who happens to be left handed. Plus historians have also declared that as a result of him being left handed he wrote backwards for those reasons
Your puzzles are fun to watch Chris
Such a cool puzzle! I love how you are working to solve it while reading and being a part of the story!
PLOT TWIST: chris is actually a puzzle that gets harder with every puzzle he solves
nah, then he wouldn’t need the hints
The implication that someone then has to ‘solve’ him is terrifying
@@guywithknife well he needs the hints to help with his understanding of specific puzzles, which a lot of people *wouldn't * know. So with each puzzle that he uses hints on, he gets smarter
sounds like a cop-out excuse to me 😏
Chris gets harder.
As soon as it asked what language was his home known for, I said Latin, I forgot that they actually speak Italien because learning Latin makes all thoughts disappear.
Ma'Liah Maddox yes everything just sounds like an off shoot of Latin!
You made me love something I did not know I did before. This is amazing, and I love your channel. Please keep add it because I am watching all your stuff man. Great job!
Bro, I've been watching you for years and your intros for puzzle vids is light years beyond most ppls entire catalog of content! Keep up the beautiful work.

Love the story with this. One of my favorite puzzles that ive seen you do.
This was fantastic! I loved the intro & all the added video thru out . That is an awesome puzzle.
The intro was definitely badass. I must say, the puzzle itself is just an absolute work of art. The story, the puzzles, the craftsmanship, everything about it is stunning. Thanks for showcasing the puzzle Chris! I’ll never be able to get it, but I’m still able to appreciate it through your video, as with a lot of puzzles you do.

I believe "Codex Silenda" translates to _Silent Book_ . Cool name. Way cool puzzles.
Not exactly. "Silent Book" is _Codex Silens_ or _Codex Silentus_ .
The real puzzle here is what they meant with that name.
Hypothesis 1. They messed with the grammar.
In Latin, when you see a word that ends with -a usually is either a feminine singular or a neuter plural. When it ends with -ndus/nda/ndum it can be a gerundive (a future passive participle), a participle or a passive form. Henceforth _silenda_ is actually a verb that can be translated with "which is to be silent" or "which must be kept silent/not to be spoken about" or "which is to be silenced".
Since adjectives in Latin basically come from participles, one can surmise that in medieval Latin existed an adjective _silendus_ even if it does not occur in ancient Latin.
The main issue here is that _codex_ is a masculine singular, nominative case, so it must end with -us or, in its passive form, with -um (accusative) or _de_ + -o (ablative).
Therefore, "The Book that have to be Silent" etc. should be translated as _Codex Silendus_ .
Hypothesis 2. They were referring to something else.
_Silenda_ is not declined along with _codex_ , but with an implicit nominative/accusative neuter plural or feminine singular. We can infer what this implicit term could be. If a neuter plural, then can be translated as "the things that have to be kept silent", while a nominative feminine singular doesn't make much sense here, unless it was intended in genitive case ( _silendae_ , "of the silent/not to speak about (woman)"), referring to Da Vinci's Mona Lisa.
So we have 4 possible meanings intended:
_The Silent Book_ (hypothetical or fictional medieval Latin with wrong grammar)
_The Book that is to be kept silent/not to be spoken about/silenced_ (wrong grammar)
_The Book of the woman one should not speak about_ (wrong grammar)
_The Book of things that have to be kept unspoken_ (right grammar). < my fav guess so far.
