How to Solve Code Busters Level 2 — Full Solution
- Choose YOU for the wand reveal, establishing 14 = O and 4 = U while reducing the wand count from three to two.
- Enter R for cipher 1 in A_E to complete ARE.
- Fill the unresolved occurrences in Y__R manually with O for 14, U for 4, and the known R for 1 until it reads YOUR.
- Turn B__T into BEST with 26 = E, 21 = S, and 6 = T in the cells shown by the video.
- Select the leading cipher 6 in _HING and type T again; the full line becomes YOU ARE YOUR BEST THING.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Assuming the O and U revealed in YOU will automatically populate the matching cells in YOUR.
- Stopping after BEST because 6 = T is known; the separate first cell of THING still needs a manual T entry.
Quick Tips for Code Busters Level 2 (quick clues)
- Use the wand on YOU exactly as the tutorial requests; its O and U mappings immediately constrain YOUR.
- Use the T established in BEST to recognize the unresolved opener of THING.
