Smile Game Hint

Hello chief Delphi! I have been looking around lately and haven't found much about a game hint other than the stronghold video. Have any of you guys found another hint or have anything to say about the video?

Thanks,
Drew

If it was actually filmed at the field, the angle of the video camera indicates that there are elements of the field at eye level.

If there's a way to get the community to collectively pour over every word in the Admin Manual, that's it.

Clever move, Frank, clever move....

Re: Game Hint

Here's the real hint:

Quote:

Something is fabricated - but it doesn't say whether it's the rumor or the hint that is a fabrication, nor by whom it was fabricated. (That is, if the GDC fabricated a hint and hid it in the Admin manual, this statement would be completely true.)

Edit: And OBTW, we've already gotten more this year from the "teaser" than we ever got from the "hint". The last I-don't-know-how-many hints have just been riddles to part of the name of the game.

Re: Game Hint

The title of the short clip was call security breach and with the teaser trailer being a medieval theme .Possibly based on the hint from the admin manual was "Fabrication" so their referencing the field walls of the playing field

Re: Game Hint

Maybe the Admin Manual is a total fabrication.

We must fabricate a fortress out of Admin manuals.
