ouverturefacile.jpgJohnBOuverture Facile is not a delicious appetizer at a fancy restaurant, it's an online puzzle/riddle game with loads of style. Ouverture Facile is French for "easy opening" and it works in the same style as God Tower, Dumb: The Game and Not Pr0n. Where this game really shines is in its clever use of online media to stump you in countless new ways.

See the image, find the clues, check the page's source code for another hint. You know the drill. Ouverture Facile mixes things up quite a bit and doesn't always put hints in the same place on each level. What the puzzles do have in common, however, is a big CLUE button at the bottom that gives you a hint to the puzzle's solution, plus an icon that lets you save your progress. The game also has a nice sense of humor. Try typing a few overly-obvious answers in some of the URL-altering levels, see what kind of response you get.

Ouverture Facile will keep you busy for quite some time with its unique and clever riddles. The game is available in English and French and has over 90 different puzzles to solve. You'll need an image editor and sound player that works with mp3 files, both of which are linked from the "game rules" section before you begin the game. Other than that, this is all you need to do: Click.

A big thanks to Digger, Kristy, Jasper, Tony and Luke for letting us know about this one!

cant get level 3 still what do u mean in the mirorr it doent do any thing

Cant get past levle 3 and cant figer out what u mean by do it in the mirorr

To get you all started on a right foot here are solutions for first 10 levels

Level 1

image
Move the pieces and click on the brain

Level 2
image
Solve the jigsaw and get an arrow that points to URL. Change it to level3.htm for next level

Level 3
image
Need to change URL again. But type mirrored version of it 3level.htm will give you mirrored page and 4level.htm will get you to next level

Level 4
image
Solve the jigsaw. It's a picture from a cover of Pink Floyd album Animals. Clue page says Track 4 which is Sheep so solution is sheep.htm

Level 5
image
Move the playlist to reveal two more desktop icons. Change URL to user.jpg -> 'little', change url to password.mp3 -> 'game'. Click on element.html and enter username and password

Level 6
image
Using ASCII table convert numbers to letters to get:
1) water
2) fire
3) earth
Missing element is 4) air. Convert it back to numbers and use the movable pieces with numbers and letters to get holdalls.htm

Level 7
image
Use any kind of sound recorder (Clue page suggests sndrec32) to record the sound. Use program options to reverse the sound and speed it up a bit. Play it to hear -> 'communication'

Level 8
image
It's like typing an SMS message press each number as many times as it appears on the picture 7x1=p 5x3=l 2x1=a 4x3=i 6x2=n -> type 'plain' and press OK

Level 9
image
Take a screenshot or printout. Connect same colors with a straight line. To get colors from equation you have to mix colors:
black & white -> grey
red & yellow -> orange
blue & yellow -> green
Find over which letters do they intersect to get solution -> 'oil'

Level 10
image
Change URL to see page2b.jpg, it's not the one you need. Try page2a.jpg and you can read
'The next level is
television.htm'

I'm currently on level 56, after week and a half. It's not easy but it's fun.

now i cant get passed levle 12 help

Okay, I don't get 12...

image
I know I have to 'grow up' the rabbit, but how?

Thanks digger, i just passed level 12 but now stuck again at level 13.

the hint indicates a word

image
started from X end with X

However
I'm pretty sure
image
xerox
is not on the puzzel...

Oh hey Morwen,

You only need to do a little work

image
to make the little rabbit "grow bigger"

i really dont understand level 11, please help if you want to.

Stuck on 11

do I need a paint prog for this lvl?

Anybody got any hints for 22? I looked through the clues and the other forum and have been hopelessly confused.

I'm over the puzzle now but i'm still stuck on Level 13

it says

image
The answer to this riddle is the word particles X

I feel so stupid myself, could anyone help?! >

Ahhhhh!~~~ never mind I got it

Lvl 13, try to think more

image
"literaly"

Fenners for Level 22

image
Take the word from URL and convert to ASCII like in Level 6, than do a conversion to binary like Level 20.
image
you can find missing parts in images
image
key.jpg and key.png
image
Do Logical XOR operation on binaries and convert it back to get final answer.

argh...for level 15

image
I've tryied different layout of the dots but nothing came to me. It doesn't look like a word but bunch of overlap triangles. Since there's only five of them I tried to put them side ways, nothing happened either.

what should I do >

jan...this is not as complicated as you think
just type in whatever you see on the screen
don't bother with the guy smoking, haha

Jeremy for Level 15

Are you sure you have all the dots?

image
There are 5 pages with dots a.htm to e.htm.
Join them together in image editor by making white transparent. There is tutorial in official forum how to do it with Paint if that's all you got.
image
Handwriting is bit odd so third letter in solution is **a*.***

got everything for 13 and still can't beat it heelllllppp

Here are levels 11-20

Level 11

image
Turn on the TV. Either play with brightness on your monitor or take screen capture and brighten image in some image editor. There is hidden text in upper right corner

Level 12
image
Clue says "grow up" so instead little.htm type big.htm. Check rabbit feet for solution.

Level 13
image
Solve the jigsaw but make sure red X's are position over X's on background image. You'll get "The answer to this riddle is the word particles"

Level 14
image
Just type 'obvious'

Level 15
image
Collect all images with dots a.htm to e.htm. Combine them together in some image editor. Join the dots and you'll get 'flag.htm' in bit odd handwriting

Level 16
image
Hex values are RGB color values for green, yellow and blue. Find country with that flag.

Level 17
image
Get images yin.jpg and yang.jpg. Make white transparent on image yang.jpg and lay it over yin.jpg. Rotate joined image 180 degrees and you can read 'machine'

Level 18
image
Take screenshot and rotate it 180 degrees. It is a bit odd but you can find normal.html in subtitle text

Level 19
image
This one takes a bit patience. Right click and Zoom In once ore twice. Move image around until you find the solution. It's somewhere in bottom left of the image. You'll get something that looks like error page, but read it carefully

Level 20
image
It's binary 1's and 0's, ignore the dashes. Convert each to decimal and than substitute each number with it's alphabet letter (a=1, b=2, ...). Upper part spells 'late', bottom part spells solution 'chat'

i had to look at the password for level 5 because I've never been able to make quicktime files work on firefox. I hope there aren't more puzzles involving QT.

OMG!!
I got to level 20 and solved it!!
but after i typed in

image
late chat

and clicked ok, i got this page that says blocked by netgear firewall.
Is it just my fault that ive got girewall, so i dont getta see the next puzzle? can somebody give me the link for the 21st puzzle or something? thanksss =]

Roseycheeks

That's not a correct solution for Level 20

ok so im stuck and level 19 and need help

i have no idea what to do, i think i've found what i'm supposed to find but im not sure what to do with that

I am so stuck on level 20. I did the work and have the two words but I dont know where to go from here. Like rosycheeks I tried these words and it did not work. What to do now?

For level 20:

image
the arrows might help...

Thanks. I just had to stare at it for a while.

look at the arrows.

image
chat is pointed down to the box, late is pointed up into infinity.

Any help on 21? I got as far as the stream error but now I am stuck.

Level 21

image
Checking source code on stream error page might help

Nevermind on the level 13 I just stared at that screen for 2 hours and I only now just noticed the little box in the corner with the OK button...oops

UGH, I still can't get 21!!

Somebody help??

Level 21

image
You have left, front and right. Which one is missing?
image
Go to back.htm
image
What is correct name for that page?
image
It's incorrect.htm
image
Look into the source code and check spelling for flash element
image
Stream is at incorrect.swf
image
I'm sure you can handle it from here

In Level 22 I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing, I know I'm supposed to take the URL from Level 6 and convert it to decimal but what part of the URL do I use and how do you convert text to decimal?? I've looked it up in google but I still don't get it, maybe I'm being really stupid but I've been stuck on this level for 2 weeks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nicole

Scroll up, I've explained Level 22 before.

image
You only need the word without extension
image
For conversion try searching Google for "JavaScript ASCII Converter"

level 13 please? The jigsaw peices wont fit- which is driving me bonkers, and diggers hints dont help, (soz digger) and there are 2 x's. am i nuts or is this impossible!?

Gameman

There are only two letters X on the crossword like background. Find them and position those two pieces with red X over each one of them. You can figure out which one goes where. And if you really can't solve it there is solution in previous spoiler as well.

i wanna figure it out myself, but i dont remember the url's for levels 6 & 20, can someone give them to mee?

can anyone help me with 26??
i searched the latitude & longitude,
& i thought that it meant the creator of the statue of liberty, but i tried his name & it didnt work. any help??

@catiee

just use the last name and no caps

@cutiecatie1992

It is a good idea to write down all the solutions because there are some later levels where you have to return to them, so my advice would be to start over from beginning and write down URLs and solutions. If you did it once it shouldn't be hard to repeat it, and you have spoilers for levels 1-20 in previous comments.

thank you, im now copying everything i did lol.
now im stuck on level 27, i dont think im anywhere near solving this one.i think its a street in france of something,like someone said ^^ but idk, i looked at the journals, but i didnt get anything from themm. this level and the one with the cards made me lose like 20 hours of my life.
someone helpp me pweasee??

catie

Some levels take time to solve. It's good to take breaks while solving and maybe some new idea will come up.

Level 27

image

Did you check pigeon logs (6 of them), and did you find the map?

i did, and i eventually figured it out, its just everytime i post a help thingy, i get the answer like, two seconds later.

Alright I'm totally stuck on level 22. Help?

I converted

image
decibel into decimals and then into binary. then i used the xor key with decibel and unsound in their binary forms. then i converted the number back into decimals. so i used the alt codes to get the symbols in notepad and compared them to the chart..but the word i got doesn't work.
any ideas as to where i went wrong? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anybody have any ideas for 34?
I just can't seem to make any headway at all.

Fenners / Level 34

image
Maybe you are looking at the false Clue

Can anyone give me some help on level 24? The one with the French Cards.

Level 22

image
I XORed the two (both "decibel" and "unsound" in binary) and have the resulting number
, and i opened the file
image
key.png so i have the chart
but i can't for the life of me figure out how to do step 4, labeled Level 6 in the riddle. i keep getting symbols that are not on the chart.

help please explain this step more clearly, as the above explanations weren't enough...

Ray - Lvl 22

image
After XOR operation on two binaries you should get XOR -> 0010001-0001011-0010000-0000110-0010111-0001011-0001000
image
Returning it to decimal -> 17-11-16-6-23-11-8 And solution is:

becomes

image
opening ey.txt mil.zip and emily.jpg didn't really help me and the zip file itself was either corrupted or something.

help ?

got it !
its not easy but its surely fun doing this things for the very 1st time

image
download a hex editor and open both the mil and ey file with it..you will see that in the mil file, there will be 2020 part and a 3030 part, replace those parts(ie copy and paste) with the entire ey hex code.
(meaning you'l have to paste one time @ the 2020 part and once again @ 3030 part)
save the whole thing and open the file with the windows image preview thing...
u will see her boobies..covered in the words..

image
kit ...something something

have fun

Need level25

i cant seem to relate the clues

image
morse? morse code?
so what?

Hello, this is regarding Level 23. I get what to do from reading above but it seems, that this 14 year old brain of mine isn't too good, cause I have no idea what the second file to download (the 'mil'). To put it simply I don't know the file extension.

I'm having trouble with lvl 23.

image
I changed those 2020 3030 part, saved the file, but then I can't open ey.txt file again in windows picture viewer. How do I change ey.txt to ey.jpg?

In 26 I know

image
it's abaut latitude and longitude, and I know this thing is on Long Island but I can't figure out what is that famous thing. Building? Statue? Bridge? Beach? Lighthouse?

I don't know what to look for anymore.

KiKa - lvl 26

Are you sure you're looking at right island.

image
Check your coordinates again because when you get to right place it's really hard to miss the famous thing there.

Got it now. I was looking on the wrong place all the time. Thanks digger

im stuck on level 23 for days.

image
I dont understand what the word ''part'' means.

I've got the last series of number
but how i could convert them right?
need some help

I am stuck on lvl 23 also!

I have downloaded a hex editor but don't know what to do with it.
I take it the 2020 and 3030 parts refer to the numbers on the left hand side and the hex code is just all of the other cryptic junk.
I looked at the mil.zip file and it had neither a 2020 part or a 3030 part
the ey file did though
i tried pasting the mil file into the 2020 and 3030 parts of ey
all i got was more random numbers
i tried opening my result in windows picture and fax viewer and all i got was the same picture from the ey file. please could i get help preferably an email to dan.leitch@hotmail.co.uk with all the details including the software used and all the other steps i need to know.
basically: I NEED HELP! ;>

Can you help me?

I dont know what'week87'means with kit...soemthing something

please help me!

Level 23

image
Ok to do this download a hex editor. I used this one http://www.hexworkshop.com/ Weeks87 posted how to do above. But he got the file names backwards. First, download the two files: ey.txt and mil.zip by typing them into the url. Your browser should ask you to download those files. Now that you have those you need to open both files in that program I linked above in this post, there is a tab on the bottom of the viewer in the program for easy switching. Now to get you the picture with you answer. You will notice in the ey.txt file there are a lot of lines of hex. We don't care about that right now. Look at the right column of the three there. That is your translation of all that garbage on the left. You will see to large blocks with repeating values. First block are a bunch of spaces with some periods. The code is repeating itself (2020 2020 2020 2020 200A 2020 2020 ...etc) This is dummy data. Switch to the mil.zip Select ALL of the code, edit->select all. Switch back to the ey.txt file tab. In the ey.txt tab, highlight all that code that is repeating, the 2020 2020 200A's. With all of that highlighted select paste. Now scroll down farther in the ey.txt tab and you will see another patter of repeating code, dummy data. This time the translation is a bunch of 0's over and over again, the code is 3030 over and over again. Select all of those 3030's and past the entire mil.zip code in there also. Save the file as emily(or whatever).jpg Open the picture up and the code is there. Good luck!

thanks!

now stuck on 27 :P

i can't get the brightness on my computer to go up for 11.

Ce n'est pas bien de donner les solutions aux énigmes sur le web !

"Ouverture Facile is a flash riddle game with a growing difficulty. In these riddles you will progress each level at a time using your brain, several clues hidden in this website and searching all over the web to learn what you don't know to solve the riddles."

"All you don't know"...but not the solutions !!!
What the interest to play riddles games if you don't find solutions by yourself !
Go away if you don't want to use your brain !!!

Pfffff....:S
