The Lore of Roblox Forsaken…Solved!

Forsaken is a multiplayer survival game that features a collection of notable Roblox figures and hackers as killers and survivors.

• Killers: Cool Kid (real hacker), John Doe and 1x1x1x1 (rumored hackers) • Survivors: Builderman (David Baszucki, Roblox creator), Sorzky (Roblox admin), Elliot (mascot from Work at the Pizza Place)

Survivors run the map and complete mini-games to reduce the clock timer before killers eliminate them. Killers attempt to catch and eliminate all survivors.

The game contains an Alternate Reality Game (ARG) spanning multiple Roblox games, profiles, and secret areas with cryptic codes and messages.

• Error code D8 appears when talking to an NPC about Work at the Pizza Place • Error code A2 from a TV in the cabin claiming unexpected shutdown • Morse code from a flickering lantern translates to C1

A tape recorder instructs: escape this realm and take what you've learned to a club unknown where secrets are sown, then recite your tale in the depths alone.

All codes follow the format of a letter followed by a number, suggesting they work together as a sequence.

The message implies leaving Forsaken entirely and finding a location matching the description of a club unknown.

Soul Driven Love, a developer of Forsaken, created another game called Buckshot Frenzy, a Roblox version of Buckshot Roulette set in a nightclub.

Buckshot Frenzy takes place in a shadowy club that matches the tape recorder's description of a club unknown.

• Four paintings in a 2x2 grid labeled C, A, D, and question mark • Clicking each painting the corresponding number of times (A=2, C=1, D=8, ?=4) reveals a secret door

A lengthy cryptic message warns about a powerful entity that warps reality and advises withstanding its pressure for 5 minutes to find clues.

• You aren't alone here • Leaving is not an option • You can't escape me • A piece for the puzzle awaits you

A Roblox user ID embedded in the last message reveals an account named A piece for the puzzle, with the actual name Julius Caesar.

The account's bio contains random letters that decode to a sponsorship message for Revenge of the Savage Planets by Raccoon Logic.

A coded message on Julius Caesar's clothing, when decrypted with a Caesar cipher shifted 12 times, reveals: His name was David. He was far too young to be sentenced to such a painful eternity. But it did not care. It only wanted more power.

An account called Not a Piece to the puzzle warns not to trust Julius Caesar and confirms the entity is power-hungry.

A private game called A Message contains a detailed story about someone being dragged into Forsaken and tortured by an entity called the Spectre.

Through Caesar cipher decryption, the trapped person's jumbled username Friday_TQfxqd decodes to He was Tyler. Tyler has been trapped for 200 years.

The entity tormenting the victims has been named the Spectre, and Tyler has spent 200 years studying it before being torn apart.

• What is its name? Answer: Spectre • What is it made of? Answer: Code • What does it seek? Answer: Power • Who was Tyler? How long was he here? How were the trials called?

A Gronsfeld cipher is revealed as the solution method. Numbers lead where letters stray. A shifting cipher guides the way. A sibling to Caesar.

Using Not a Piece to the puzzle's user ID number as the Gronsfeld cipher key decrypts the message: Wash your hands on the second floor. Blue means one, red means two, brighter shades increase the value by two.

In Buckshot Frenzy's bathrooms on level two, hot and cold circles on sink taps provide color codes that translate to the sequence 1 4 3 2 1 2 3 2.

A final Caesar cipher reveals He was Elliot at the end of the quiz, indicating Elliot is behind the entire puzzle, warning seekers of the danger.

• Elliot references Icarus flying too close to the sun, symbolizing reckless ambition • Elliot parallels the Greek god Ares, stripped of wings and imprisoned in Tartarus for betraying Zeus • Elliot serves as a messenger trying to guide players away from the Spectre

A second messenger god Iris from mythology remains sided with the gods. The plant Siberian Iris has the nickname brother of Caesar, hinting at a second player in this ARG.

Tyler may actually be aligned with the Spectre, not helping players. He continuously sends seekers deeper into the mystery, potentially leading them toward eternal torment like himself.
