CipherStreet: Code Puzzles
Crack codes like a spy
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Crack real ciphers: Caesar to RSA - inside a cold-war spy thriller. Learn the foundations of modern cryptography by doing, not by being lectured. No ads, no tracking.
CipherStreet is a story-driven puzzle game where every level is a real cryptographic cipher - from Caesar shifts to RSA public keys - wrapped in a cold-war spy thriller.
Intercept encoded messages. Decode them with on-screen tools you discover, not tutorials you sit through. Unlock fragments of a decades-spanning conspiracy with every cipher you crack. By the end of ten chapters you'll have genuinely internalised the foundations of modern cryptography - roughly the first four weeks of a university course — without a single lecture.
THE STORY
A defector known only as The Architect has built a private intelligence network hidden inside ever more sophisticated ciphers. Your handler, Agent Kovács, sends each intercept with minimal context and maximum urgency. A mole. A missing codebook. A name that keeps reappearing across fifty years. Crack the codes before dawn.
TEN CHAPTERS, TEN REAL CIPHERS
• Caesar cipher: frequency analysis
• Vigenère: the pattern inside the pattern
• Rail Fence: transposition
• Enigma (simplified): the crib attack that broke a war
• Playfair: grid geometry
• One-Time Pad: the perfect, unbreakable lock
• Diffie-Hellman: sharing a secret in public
• RSA: math as a lock
• Hash functions: integrity, not secrecy
• Steganography: messages hidden in plain sight
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
• Learn by doing: tools are discovered through play, never explained at you
• Real, historically accurate cryptography, all running offline on your device
• A genuine spy narrative with characters, twists, and a finale that recasts everything
• No punishing fail states: get a cipher wrong and the story simply waits
• Build and share your own encrypted intercepts; challenge friends to crack them
FREE TO START
Chapters 1–2 are completely free, no account required. A single one-time purchase unlocks chapters 3–10 and every cipher type in the Builder. No ads. No subscriptions. No tracking.
The cipher is never the weakest link. The human always is.
