Main Page > List of Investigations > MonteCrypto - The Bitcoin Enigma

MonteCrypto is an atmospheric steampunk puzzle game developed by Gem Rose Accent available through Steam. It consists of 24 "mind-bending enigmas" which it challenges players to solve. The first player to solve all 24 puzzles is to be awarded 1 Bitcoin. To reinforce this reward claim, Gem Rose Accent has revealed their public wallet address, so that the funds can be verified. The true identity of the development team behind MonteCrypto is unknown, but will be revealed once the prize has been claimed.

Each puzzle, or "enigma", is solved by completing a certain task in order to obtain a keyword. Once all 24 keywords are collected, the bitcoin can be obtained.

Overview

Map

Below is a map of the maze. Orange circles represent known compass locations, red circles represent known skull locations, and colored lines represent known paths to rooms.

Pathing/Skulls/Compasses Map

General Information

Currently, all rooms are known of, all rooms have known pathing, and 16/24 rooms have known solutions.

This pastebin contains clues, phrases, and general information gathered by datamining the game. The information is out of context and thus difficult to apply.

Transcriptions of all skull's audios found throughout the maze.

List of folders and what rooms they are about.

Step-by-step directions to each room.

Spreadsheet of condensed info including alternate word possibilities and solution information.

Skipping the Timer

Either teleport away using X Y Z, or jump over the water barrier, or follow these instructions, or, using Cheat Engine:

  1. Do the Y hack (get the Y coordinate address)
  2. Go to the spawn roof
  3. Go inside the window box
  4. Set Y to 2500
  5. Fall down to the labyrinth

Cheat Engine/"Noclip"

Be warned that you download and use these tools at your own risk!

Injecting these (and possibly any) .dll files into the game executable seems to change certain outcomes within the game.

If you don't want to use Cheat Engine to "noclip", follow these instructions (video tutorial) to use a third-party program created by a community member to navigate the maze with a commands and hotkeys issued in-game. Cheat Engine or another like injector is still required to inject the executable into the game.

It is possible to use Cheat Engine to navigate the maze. To automatically build your cheat table, save this pastebin as a .ct file, then run the file and select MonteCrypto as the process (you must have Cheat Engine installed). The script will find the x,y,z coordinates for you as well as the gravity address. To build your table manually, using Cheat Engine, connect to the CryptoChallenge.exe process (if you see a process with win64 in the name, use that one) and do the following:

  1. Be on the lowest point of the lobby, do 'first scan' values between -280 and -240, value type 'float'.
  2. Go to the highest point of the lobby, do 'next scan' value bigger than 100 (float for all values).
  3. Go back to the lowest point, do 'next scan' value smaller than -200.
  4. Repeat step 2. And 3. until you have 1-50 addresses in the list, ctrl + A to select them all then press the small red button to move them to the bottom window.
  5. Do ctrl + A to select all in the bottom window, press enter and set the value to, for example, 1000 and you should be on top of the lobby room. After that you can change the addresses one by one to find the correct one or just keep changing all of them like you just did.

Unpacking .pak Files

Be warned that you download and use these tools at your own risk!

Unreal Engine works with .pak files to store game data. Exploring these files can sometimes yield clues that would otherwise be very difficult to access or altogether inaccessible, and requires the use of third-party tools. To see the contents of a .pak file, you must first unpack it. To do so:

  1. Find your .pak file, "CryptoChallenge-WindowsNoEditor.pak". It is located in \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MonteCrypto\CryptoChallenge\Content\Paks.
  2. Download UE4-pak-file unpacker by haoose v0.5 and UModel.
  3. Run the program and choose the .pak file you identified in step 1.
  4. Click "unpack" and wait for the process to finish.
  5. After the unpack, there will be multiple folders created in \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MonteCrypto\CryptoChallenge\Content. One of them will be CryptoChallenge and will have a folder called Enigmas.
  6. Launch UModel and explore the folders using it. When opening models, choose UE 4.16.

Ordering the Words

Not that way! This sneaky dead-end hobgoblin might have an ironic secret...

As the time of completion closes in, many are beginning to wonder about the order of the words. Many theories have been put forward, but none have yet yielded the precious Bitcoin. What is known for sure is that a tool like BTCRecover will likely be required to order and assemble the correct words into a valid password, per the developer's FAQ page and a strange reddit post they made days before launching the game.

One which has yet stood the test of trial is the Pi digits 121 - 144 sequence, 093844609550582231725359. This sequence is mentioned in the game in the "not that way" rooms found at every dead-end in the labyrinth (look closely at the right wall). If this sequence is to be used to order the words, then it would be on an index basis; the numbers before each word would be used to order the words according to that number's occurrence in the Pi sequence. Since there are duplicate numbers within the sequence, multiple possibilities will exist, but less than a flat-out brute-force would have to attempt.

Obtaining the Bitcoin

According to the developer's FAQ page, "A wallet.dat file is a file that contains the private keys required to unlock the wallet. It has been encrypted with a 24 words-long password using the BitcoinCore client. By playing MonteCrypto: The Bitcoin Enigma and solving all the enigmas, you will be able to decrypt the password."

Once you know the password, the wallet.dat file can be decrypted by using the following steps:

  1. Download the Bitcoin Core client.
  2. Close the client if it’s already open.
  3. Find and delete the original wallet.dat, located here: C:\Users\YourUserName\Appdata\Roaming\Bitcoin\wallet.dat
  4. Take the wallet.dat from the game files (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\MonteCrypto\CryptoChallenge\Content\CryptoChallenge\Datamaps\wallet.dat) and paste it into the location of the old wallet.dat.
  5. Use BTCRecover or a like tool to assist in ordering/assembling the password.
  6. Open Bitcoin Core client, then open the wallet.dat you pasted and enter in the 24 word password to decrypt the wallet.
  7. Run “dumpprivkey 19mb9mZ1w953zBd7viHwWK2ZhPmcbMQh4Q” to get the private key without downloading the entire blockchain.
  8. Import that private key into something like Coinomi or another wallet and transfer your BTC from the decrypted wallet!

Enigmas

Map X:Y Coordinates: 4:1

DIRECTIONS: Starting with Fairy enigma at your back, walk straight towards and through the door. Then, Second Right, D, Left.

ENIGMA:

I was too blind to see what you were too deaf to hear

CLUES: The chair in the room is of some importance. There are likely 52 triggers within the room that must be active in order to complete the room (the video features a "non-conventional" solution).

The fan sound and chime sound throughout the room are directions. In the game files, chime is right sound and fan is left sound. The sounds play to direct the player which way to turn to get silence again, chime being to the right and fan being to the left.

Possible red-herring solution: 3 kohokohta - Translates to highlight (Finnish). Obtained by: Password for 2t2.zip (jobwelldone) was found in the game files within the manager for the room. Using the password enables extraction of 2t2, which contains the word image. However, this appears to be an incorrect solution. The room does not yet have a well-known in-game solution.

No word appears in the immediate vicinity after the victory sound triggers. However, by using this script (Y is up/down) which teleports the player over every inch of the room, thus hitting every trigger, and then to the balcony, the victory sound can be obtained. To use it, go to CE -> memory viewer -> tools -> lua engine

Spirited Machines/Candles

The entrance to the cave portion of the room is a trigger for controller vibration. The vibrations are pulsating, not a code. Works with both Xbox360 and PS4 controllers. It appears that one must be touching the floor for the vibration to be active, and you cannot leave the room via noclip or otherwise. The purpose of the vibration is unknown.
