Solving Approach
This one works out to about 5.0 letters per word on average. This puzzle leans toward longer words — apostrophes and doubled letters will likely crack it open faster than word length alone. At medium difficulty, expect to lean on letter frequency and word patterns rather than a single obvious giveaway.
About Voltaire
Voltaire was an influential French philosopher and writer of the Enlightenment who championed reason, free speech, and religious tolerance. Known for his wit and satirical works like Candide, he fearlessly criticized superstition, intolerance, and abuse of power. Though often imprisoned and exiled for his provocative ideas, Voltaire became synonymous with the famous principle "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
Did you know? He spent nearly three years imprisoned in the Bastille and exiled from France due to his sharp satirical writings that offended powerful figures.
