On the Subject of Epic Shapes

Geometry (epiku)

  • This module has 3 buttons, each with a number.
  • Each button must be clicked in specific amounts.
  • Buttons must be pressed in a specific order.
  • The display contains two shapes (bigger and smaller).
  • Button ordering begins with the first on the left.
  • Pressing the buttons correctly then submitting will disarm the module.

In this manual you will have to assign variables (x, y, z, etc.) that will be used to solve the module.

Step 1: Finding x

For this step you need to look at the background color and the bigger shape in the table to get your x value.

Bigger shapeBackground color
RedGreenBlueOther
Star3124
Square1352
Pentagon1241
Other2613

Step 2: Finding y

For this step you need to look at the smaller shape to get your y value.
Smaller shapes can be filled in or rotated.

  • If the smaller shape is a square and is not filled in: y = 2
  • Otherwise if it’s a pentagon, not rotated, and filled in: y = 5
  • Otherwise if it’s a star and filled in: y = 1
  • Otherwise if it’s a square and filled in: y = 4
  • Otherwise: y = 6

Step 3: Finding z

For this step you need to look at the numbers on the buttons to get your z value.

  • Assign variables a, b, and c the numbers on the buttons in order, respectively.
  • Assign variable d to the absolute difference between a and b.
  • Assign variable z to the sum of c and d.

Step 4: Solving the module

Assign variable w to the sum of x, y, and z. Use w to solve the module.

  • If w is less than 9: Press the first button a times, then press the second button b times, then press the third button c times.
  • Otherwise, if w is less than 17: Press the first button 6 times, then press the second button 3 times, then press the third button a times.
  • Otherwise, if w is less than 26, and there are 2 or more batteries on the bomb: Press the second button c times, then press the first button b times, then press the third button c times.
  • Otherwise: Press the first button c times, then press the second button 1 time, then press the third button a times.
