Homophonic Encryption — Part 3 Level 2

by Nils Kopal, Bernhard Esslinger, published on 2019-05-08

Homophonic encryption is a modified version of the monoalphabetic substitution: One plaintext symbol can be substituted by more than one ciphertext symbol. In part 3 of this series every plaintext symbol has the same number of possible substitutions like in part 1, but the alphabet doesn't contain the blank. This is a ciphertext-only challenge. Try to crack the ciphertext and extract a specific word from the plaintext.
