The link to Playing With Letters appears to have a typo, it goes to https://jayisgames.com/review/jayisgames.com/review/playing-with-letters.php instead of https://jayisgames.com/review/playing-with-letters.php . Anyway, I'm off to try both games now!
Thanks Arceus: it's fixed now.
This was a great game!

that is, the ROT13 clue
Any ideas about the secret ending?
Here is a hint for the secret ending taken from a post by LucidShadowDreamer on Newgrounds:
I promised a hint about the secret ending, so let me explain. There isn't really much of a puzzle, as the secret ending isn't really even announced all too well. You can get it by replacing the answer of the very last puzzle with something else. I didn't want it to take away from the main story too much, so I kinda left it in as a semi-meta perk for those that are really interesting. As for the hint, let's just say that I thought for quite a while what the title of the game should be, hehhe...
I can make out one thing of interest from "A Sweet Typing Thrill", but I tried to enter all the thins I could of that that answer seemed to imply, to no avail. I still can't see what the right response to get the secret ending would be...
Further hints for the secret ending:
Hint 1
The creator hints that the secret ending has something to do with the title of the game.
Hint 2
Remember that this game is a sequel.
Hint 3
What is one common puzzle that has been used in both games?
Hint 4
Anagrams have been used in both games. What are some anagrams of the game's title?
If you just want the answer:
When the criminal asks you for his surname, enter: Playing With Letters.
