Hidden Language MZ
A downloadable plugin
Synopsis
TOOT_HiddenLanguages brings immersive and discoverable hidden languages to RPG Maker MZ. NPC dialogue, signs, books, and notes can appear as an unreadable cipher until the player learns words in that language. As more words are unlocked, previously “gibberish” text becomes readable in real time, creating a dynamic sense of discovery and progression.
With simple note tags, you can show text as written in a hidden language that you define in the plugin parameters. Using plugin commands, players can unlock words one by one, slowly turning the cipher into meaningful dialogue.
