  Crypto-dle

  daily · encodings

  A short encoded message. What encoding? Base64, hex, binary, Morse, ROT13… pick wrong and you see the gibberish your chosen encoding would produce — so the wrongness is visible.

  • 43 hand-crafted puzzles across 8 encodings at launch
  • Base64 · Base32 · Hex · Binary · ROT13 · Atbash · Morse · URL
  • Each wrong guess shows that encoding's decode attempt — educational by construction
