How to Solve Code Busters Level 22 — Full Solution
- Complete MY MAMA ALWAYS using 8=Y, repeated 23=A, 25=L, 3=W, and 13=S.
- Fill SAID LIFE WAS with 13=S, 23=A, 11=I, 10=D; 25=L, 11=I, 6=F, 22=E; and 3=W, 23=A, 13=S.
- Resolve LIKE A BOX OF with 25=L, 11=I, 1=K, 22=E, then 23=A, the three feather/unknown letters B, O, X, and 9=O, 6=F for OF.
- Enter 26=C, 12=H, 9=O, 26=C, 9=O, 25=L, 23=A, 5=T, 22=E, 13=S to spell CHOCOLATES, then 8=Y, 9=O, 19=U for YOU.
- Scroll down and complete NEVER KNOW WHAT with 15=N, 22=E, 20=V, 21=R, 1=K, 9=O, 3=W, 12=H, 23=A, and 5=T, entering repeated cells separately.
- Fill YOU'RE as 8=Y, 9=O, 19=U, 21=R, 22=E, keeping the apostrophe in place.
- Finish with GONNA GET. using 2=G, 9=O, 15=N, 15=N, 23=A, then 2=G, 22=E, and 5=T.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Treating the first period after CHOCOLATES as the end and missing the second sentence below the fold.
- Entering only one 26=C or 9=O occurrence in CHOCOLATES.
- Dropping the apostrophe or leaving the isolated GET. line unfinished.
Quick Tips for Code Busters Level 22 (quick clues)
- Anchor cipher 23 as A from the repeated MAMA pattern.
- Use 26=C and 9=O twice each inside CHOCOLATES.
- After the first period, scroll through YOU'RE GONNA and the separate GET line.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A long MOVIE LINE spans two sentences and several vertical scroll positions. The opening shows MY MAMA, feather-marked cells, brown seed letters, and numbered blanks; GET. is below the initial viewport.
- Goal
- Decode both sentences, preserve the apostrophe in YOU'RE, and scroll through the isolated final GET. line.
- Opening
- Use repeated 23=A in MAMA and ALWAYS, then add 25=L, 3=W, 8=Y, and 13=S to establish the opening phrase.
- Danger Zone
- The period after CHOCOLATES. looks conclusive, but YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GONNA GET. remains below it. Repeated C and O cells in CHOCOLATES also need individual entries.
- Mechanics
- This MOVIE LINE round uses a long scrolling cryptogram with feather-marked cells; the video solves the text directly and leaves all three mistake circles unused.
