Loved that one! Although the E.T.s are always a big (but fun) challenge for me.

Fun puzzle, not that easy compared to the main course tbh ;)

@h5663454 Yes, any base is possible, but all clues are in the same base.

I like these aliens a lot. But although having solved already a number of those puzzles it took me some time to make my brain stop thinking the terrestrial way and to realize all possibilities.

Great puzzle, not as difficult as I thought I’d find it. This gives me a bit more confidence for the next in the series, thanks!

@kjholt You never know... the alien might know base 10 :-)

I wondered when this might come out and I'm glad there's an approachable one first since I probably won't even be able to do this one. Nice touch with the message in the cipher... Funny that the alien knows English but not base-10 ;)

@RJBlarmo As is the nature with many puzzles of this type... a brunt of the difficulty typically is related to determining the relevant number base. There are a couple different ways to determine it for this puzzle, but I agree none of them are trivial.

Very nice puzzle, I found the beginning steps a bit tricky. Looking forward to the next Japanese Sum Cave puzzle!

Beautiful construction! Although, I fear for the difficulty of the next JSSCC considering the time this took me to solve :P
