The solutions were printed for anyone with half a brain to work out. If you had to rely on playground rumour, you're unironically proving the devs right when they said kids today are too clueless to work shit out.

Whoever greenlit these things should be shot. Staring at fucking braille "translations" on the internet for 20 minutes to decipher these was cancer. I never even got the Regis as a kid because I had no internet until the mid 2000s.
Whose fucking brilliant idea was to take something that blind people physically touch and make it a visual puzzle?

Back then i used prepaid internet cards, it was like 5 bucks for a week of internet access
Internet cafes were also common as fuck, my mom would usually only buy me 2 cards a month so whenever i needed to look up something else i'd just go to a cafe and print the info

Please, if you could afford a gameboy adv/Pokemon back then, that would make you also able to afford basic internet

Hell even dial up is enough

I mean RS was only a few years before world of warcraft

Literally just get out a sheet of paper and write down the symbols from the walls
They all correspond to the letters of the alphabet and all your clues are given to you by reading the text

I remember following random gamefaqs with my brother and cousin to go through this and the hype when it worked is easily in my top 3 experiences with this whole series, and I'm not even a huge fan of the regis
