Buster Apparel // Founding Series
Field
Manual.
The player briefing for the Founding Series. Read the rules, protect the mission, then inspect the artifact.
Open Mission Brief
01 // The mission
Every shirt carries a signal.
Every Founding Series design stands on its own as a shirt.
They also carry a signal.
Those signals are part of a four-code mission built into the apparel and the VA Claim Buster site. The goal is not to guess. Inspect the design, follow the information it gives you, and use the site like a field console.
Complete all four codes to unlock the Founding Series clearance.
02 // Before you start
Keep your progress intact.
You will need access to the VA Claim Buster website and the Founding Series shirts as they are released.
Your progress is saved in the browser you use. Stay in the same browser and do not clear website data while you are working through a code. Starting fresh is possible, but your previous progress will not follow you automatically to another browser or device.
There is no QR-code shortcut. The shirt is the first briefing.
03 // The rules of the game
Do not ruin the hunt.
- 01
Solve the codes in order: Code 1, then Code 2, then Code 3, then Code 4.
- 02
Follow the clue you have. Do not expect the site to announce the answer.
- 03
Button position is not a clue unless the shirt tells you it is. Some controls intentionally scramble after a failed attempt.
- 04
Wrong inputs may reset that code’s current attempt. They do not destroy the mission.
- 05
Do not post complete solves where they ruin the mission for everyone else. Talk about the hunt; do not dump the answer.
04 // Final clearance
The system will evolve.
Future Buster Apparel collections may use different ciphers, different mechanics, and different final authorization formats. The one constant is RECON: final collection codes are entered there.
