The secrets hidden in dflop can be challenging to find for players with less experience solving cryptic puzzles. Provided below is a properly spoilered hint and solution guide for dflop that you can use to your own need, or risk. I recommend trying to solve the puzzles on your own first and only consulting this guide if you are really stuck.

Text that is a spoiler will be surrounded by square brackets, colored to match the background, and written in ROT13 ([yvxr guvf]). You can decode ROT13 using an online tool such as https://rot13.com
