Puzzle 06 isn't Steganography!

[D.A.R.K.]

As the game told us: "Steganography is a weak form of cryptography as the secret message is not enciphered and relies entirely on it's ability to go unnoticed. Once a hidden mesage is suspected it can usually be revealed without the need of any special techniques.". Thit means Steganography doesn't use any kind of Cipher to encrypt the message, just place it inside the message and pray for don't be spot.

Puzzle 01 to 05 it's a perfect exemple of that, there's no cipher used in those Puzzles and the solution is there, you just need TIME and PERCEPTION to solve it. Puzzle 06 doesn't work that way because we NEED to use a technique to find the solution.

SPOILERS AHEAD!!
Puzzle 06 uses a Cipher called A1Z26, where we change the letter for numbers in the same order. A = 1; B = 2; C = 3; Z = 26. A1Z26 it's a cipher and it's a way to encrypt a massage.
Same as other ciphers as Caesar, Atbash, Freemason and many others, all those Ciphers are techniques to encrypt a message.

Did you understand why Puzzle 06 shouldn't be tagged as "Steganography"? We do need a technique to solve the Puzzle.

Now I'm wondering if Puzzle 07 and Puzzle 08 it's Steganography or not.
Puzzle 08 seems to need some technique [that I think I know what it is] to solve it.

Agree 100 percent. It was a sudden shift and complicated the flow of things

I just did the Puzzle 07 and works the same, isn't Steganography,
I bet Puzzle 08 works the same way.

The last puzzle defintiely isn't stenography. From what I gathered, it's double encrypted

For now on I think I will try to solve the Puzzle with everything I know.
The Puzzle 06 was a challenge because I did try to work with Numbers,
At first I did think on time and clock, then I did try the bibble...
I did try math with the hours, even knowing USA doesn't use 24h system.

Anyways, I did try all that and couldn't find an answer... So I did HINT...
08 = H
I did think "oh no, it's A1Z26? What the hell, it shouldn't have ciphers on it"

How did I solve the Puzzle 07? I count how many symbols are there,
did try one by one, first I did try Binary and so on, so on... Until I reach Morse.

That way I just need to try 6 different combinations to see if there's a solution,
and, look at that, it worked, at the 4th try with Morse Cipher I could find the answer.

Now I'm doing the Puzzle 08 and I already start with Binary.
I will try Caeser Cipher, then I will try Atbash Cipher and so one...
It will take me a while but I will find the answer.

Puzzle 04 is also not ''pure'' steganography in a sense. It also requires you to do some kind of conversion, that makes sense when you see it, but is 'incorrect' in that the text on the screen does not line up with the answer. (just like with the last few puzzles)
