This guide is meant to help solve the puzzle game. All answers included including what I found to help solve this. Thanks to friends on discord for helping me understand.

Spoiler
Note: This Puzzle uses a Base 11 system and have 16 levels. EX: Set [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, X] All math problems are derived from this. As it uses basic arithmetic and uses the last digit for solution, only the last digit matters. https://math.tools/table/multiplication/base/11 Or use any website with a base 11 multiplier. The puzzles have a test where you have to solve at least 3 puzzles […] Credit to Essays on the Foundations of Mathematics by Moritz Pasch. 2 - Puzzles First Puzzle: 1 + 2 = 3 An easy start to the puzzle one can use basic base 10 math for it. 2.1 - Level 1: […] This is the start of the use of base 11, in this case 0 still represents 0 in base 10 and X is the largest value, the equivalent of 10 in base 11. […] Level 1 Test […] Obvious as X is our equivalent to 10 […] The rule is to roll over to the new set, what comes after X we go all the way back to the beginning of the set,number zero. Level 2 […] Explanation 5 and 5 goes to X remainder 2, then 0, then 1 in the set. or Can be thought of as 12-1 = 11, last digit 1, answer is 1 […] Level 2 Test […] Level 3 Now with Subtractions […] Level 4 Now we have multiplication. […] Level 5 […] Level 6 […] Level 7 Now we are introduced to sets. the sets have a 4 dots in a column as an arbitrary symbol, this does not appear in any textbook or google result. […] Level 8 Now we have multiplication […] Level 9 […] Level 10 […] Level 11 […] Level 12 […] Level 13 […] Level 14 […] Level 15 Now we introduce a ? to the values […] Level 16 This time we are introduced to our last challenge, perfect squares. […] Congratulations, you made it. Thank you for the dev for making this game and giving me the runaround. I hope others get a chance to learn or progress if they never got a chance to get a solution, since I didn't see any guides online for stuff like Base 11 Arithmetic.

Thanks for your comment. As others have pointed out, some form of in-game tips or help feature might be useful to help players progress. Having all the solutions takes away key aspects of the game though, so I have removed them from your post. The source code in this repository intentionally does not contain the solutions and I'd like to keep it that way.
