How to play The Password Game密码游戏玩法说明
This is a puzzle where you create a password that survives an ever-growing list of absurd rules. It starts easy, an uppercase letter, a number, and then a new rule appears at each step, until all 16 are in play. Your password must pass all of them at once, so every edit has to respect the rules you already cleared, from the current moon phase to the chemical symbol for today's date.这是个解谜游戏:你要设置一个密码,让它撑过一条条越来越离谱的规则。开头很简单:大写字母、数字,然后每步新增一条规则,直到 16 条全部上场。密码必须同时通过所有规则,所以每次修改都要顾及已经满足的规则,从当前月相到今天对应的元素符号。
The newest rule is rarely the problem, the old ones are. Read each rule twice before you type, and keep track of what your password already satisfies, its length, its digits, its special characters, so fixing one rule does not break another. Slow down near the end: the last few rules are where most runs fall apart. If you get stuck, start over with a fresh password instead of patching the old one, a clean start is often faster than untangling five rules at once. And remember that the rules never go away, a rule you passed on round three still has to hold on round sixteen.最新那条规则往往不是问题,老规则才是。输入前把每条规则读两遍,记清楚密码已经满足了什么,长度、数字、特殊字符,免得修好一条又弄坏另一条。越到后面越要慢,最后几条规则是最容易翻车的地方。卡住了就换个新密码重写,别在旧密码上打补丁,从头开始往往比同时解五条规则更快。别忘了规则永远不会消失,第三轮通过的规则,到了第十六轮还得成立。
