Number Station
A downloadable game for Windows
You have been assigned the position of Operator at Number Station 30.
Unscramble patterns heard on the radio using cipher cards.
A puzzle game made for the GMTK Game Jam 2025.
Use the mouse to interact with the radio, cards, and green routing-matrix-machine.
Hints:
Starting point:
The number 0 is a good reference point to start from.Groups of numbers:
Except for the 'end of sequence', all patterns are made up of four numbers.Coordinates:
The number zero only appears at the end of a radio channel's loop or when giving coordinates. For example: "0 3 0 2" indicates the switch in the third column, row 2. A coordinate is always followed by a different pattern that says what should happen to the switch at that coordinate.Blank state:
The switches on the green routing matrix start in a random position. Turning all switches off first will make things easier.Pattern example:
A simple example to decipher the state for a switch:1) Wait for the voice channel to say "0 0 0 0 0", this means it completed its loop and will now restart.
2) The first pattern you hear will use the "0 X 0 Y", this is a coordinate for a switch, for example: "0 3 0 2".
3) The next pattern will be four numbers that matches the pattern of one of the cards. For example "1 7 5 7", meaning the switch must be set active.
4) These two patterns after each other mean that the switch in column 3, row 2, needs to be turned on.
