Not a game, or even a puzzle really, but I have just printed off a bus timetable and one of the pages is headed up:
Npoebz!up!Gsjebz
I'm not sure how this happened and at first I thought it was gobbledygook, but now it makes perfect sense. Can anyone guess what the other page was headed up with?
(It looked fine on the screen)

Well done to you both, we knew it wouldn't take long, particularly for Scurra.
Puzzle 2: Can you work out why the computer managed to scramble it, even though it was fine on the screen!!

duh! I should really have let the computer make the translation, not rely on my own typing!
I should really have ended with "@" as well, not "?"
