More about this game
Your goal is to recover the stolen Lexicon Lens by tracking a thief across three global cities. In each stage, you read a clue and answer a multiple-choice spelling or geography question. Choosing the correct answer reveals the thief's location, allowing you to select the matching city on the map to travel there. Wrong answers reduce your final accuracy score by 8 percent. The run ends after three successful stops, where you receive a final rank based on your accuracy.
Tips
- You start with exactly 2 hints available per case, so make sure to save them for the hardest spelling or geography questions when you are stuck.
- Every wrong answer drops your final accuracy by 8 percent, which can lower your final rank from Cipher Ace down to Trace Pro.
- Read the feedback text carefully after answering a question correctly, as it tells you exactly which city to choose on the map.
