I solved the puzzle, but I don't know how to use it to get the passcode. I assume you have to sum the digits for each color, but I can't get a keyword from those sums.
Also, there's an extra color in this and the right puzzle (pink) that I'm not sure what to do with.
anyone know what I need to do after solving the middle puzzle? summing all the colored box doesn't make any sense. and the pink one, is it useful? or is it just distraction?
@NianticOfficial Please do something about the passcode cooldown. It's frustrating to get locked out for multiple hours after only a few tries. And it only affects iOS users, because Android users can just try passcodes in the scanner without a cooldown.
At least reduce the lockout duration to something like 10 minutes.
I also assumed the order of the puzzles is relevant. Apparently it's not. It's easier if you assume they are in random order and you have to figure out the order by trying to find passcode elements like prefix and keyword.
The first puzzle answer is immediately obvs where it belongs. The middle and right need translating from digital to alphanumeric. Keep at it - you will get there!
Look at the keywords, established ones, list, and the prior answers for format.
Great, very challenging. I immediately felt at home due to the logic problem format of the left, first, puzzle. For once I understood how to solve it without endless musing.
I particularly liked that one did not need apps, programs, scanners etc to solve. These are far more classic puzzles than the last weeks.
I have "an" answer for the first puzzle but did not need to solve the puzzle.
I solved both the middle and right puzzles, my solutions for the middle puzzle produces alphanumeric text that fits nicely with the logic puzzle's answer. Maybe.
The right puzzle gives me ... six 2-digit numbers, 5 of which somehow translate into alphanumeric codes? I'm assuming I'm close but am blinded by Niantic's weird obfuscation techniques again, aren't I?
Edit: the obfuscation was simpler than it looked after all, but has little to do in common with previous puzzles. I just had to Look Up for a bit.

I believe that's correct; also, there's no zero.
I simply ignored the pink ones.
Is the prefix 5 characters then, or does the middle one contain part of the prefix? Is one letter from the left one part of the keyword?
Oh yay, this weeks challenge looks like so much fun! Something to really bang my head against instead of googling like crazy for engines.
That's how I did it but I got more than one conflicts. I must got something wrong. Will try again.
My eyes can't unsee the pink boxes and they are distracting me >.<

I've solved the 3 puzzles. I'm stuck at what to do with the middle and right puzzles to get the right characters in the coloured boxes.
I know what I need to do for the middle puzzle now but my brain is worn out from the other two. Think I need to sleep on it.
I think I'm one character short on the last puzzle. is this a possible issue?

Got it. There was one box filled with a wrong number for the middle puzzle on my first try. I like this more compared to previous one.
Cooldown cost me 1 hour, but the puzzles were still fun.
A version of the picture with colour names for boxes to help agents with colour blindness.
Nice, but quite tricky one, learned something new again. Thanks for the challenge!
Thank you. I love the cross number puzzle.
I've solved all the puzzles but I'm struggling to put them into a passcode, any hints?

I have all three solutions but I don't know how to order the answer from the middle one, any clue?
I won't even have time to attempt any of these until later tonight... but Idefinitely see a contradiction in the first one right off.
Yes! Thanks for the tips.

In the middle puzzle, the coloured borders go around single boxes. In the puzzle at the right, the coloured borders go around pairs of boxes.
Done!!
if you have invalid and you have keyword, i recommend to remember dreamer.
Is possible complete the middle puzzle with the 36? O is a trap?
36 is not the error in the middle puzzle.
any idea what to do with the puzzle after we change the error? I already solve the 'right' puzzle.. but have no idea what to do with all this number
