DC Crew Challenges Walkthrough: Did you Crack the Codes?
🦇♦️DID YOU CRACK THE CODES? HERE ARE THE ANSWERS TO EACH BATCOMPUTER NODE PUZZLE IN GOTHAM CITY.
In November and December 2023, The Gotham City District Knightwatch and Harley Quinn Crew had to take on the intrusion of The Legacy Cowl throughout Gotham City. How did they do it?
THE STORY….
When Batman faced off against The Legacy Cowl in Batman: The Legacy Cowl #3 he shut down Batcomputer systems throughout Gotham City for the first time.
Meanwhile, while she was scouting locations for their next big caper, Harley Quinn ran across a whole assembly line of cowls. She escaped — sending a mysterious code key to her crew.
For the next month, clues were delivered on DC Bat Cowls, DC NFT Official and DC NFTS Discord channels that hold the key to 2023’s final crew challenges.
SOLUTION: SOCIAL POSTS & URL CLUES
The Batcomputer notified the Gotham City District Knightwatch (GCDK) on social media on DC Bat Cowls and DC NFTs Discord channels. The Harley Quinn Crew was monitoring these feeds for their own goals.
Each time The Batcomputer identified a disconnected Batcomputer Node in Gotham City, it sent an alert and delivered the URL with a clue in each image.
There were 10 total nodes — to figure out the URL — the user zoomed in on the Batcomputer interface text.
Through trial and error, and clues in social posts revealed later in the experience, they could figure out that the codes led to a URL.
10 URLS could be discovered, leading to the disconnected Batcomputer nodes in Gotham City.
