Cryptris : a video game about cryptography

2 pointslducas3 comments

Hi everyone, especially French speaking fellas; I've beenworking on this popular science project for two years and I'm glad to announce it is finally out (in French only for now...). The game is in pure HTML5/Javascript and works on most systems, computers tablets and smartphones. It has built-in sharing capabilities on social media (but does not require any special accesstou your private data !!).

Play Tetris to decrypt messages using public key/ secret key mechanism :

There are two articles to explain the underlying math on CNRS popular science blog : http://images.math.cnrs.fr/Cryptris-1-2-Comprendre-une-des.html

For now all this is only in French, but with your help we could maybe translate the game and the articles to many languages !

Good game !
