thmyl — decode (shift right): t→y h→j m→, (nope) fails. So not uniform. ? No. Given the presence of “twisted metal 2”, maybe the cipher is a simple Caesar but with a twist — “twisted” meaning shifted? Try ROT13:
This string — "thmyl lbt twisted metal 2 llkmbywtr mn mydya fayr" — appears to be a form of (often called “keyboard walk” or “nearby keys” substitution), possibly combined with a simple transposition or phonetic mangling. thmyl lbt twisted metal 2 llkmbywtr mn mydya fayr
But “twisted metal 2” being plain suggests only the unknown words are ciphered. Could be a simple for those words only. thmyl — decode (shift right): t→y h→j m→,
Cipher: t h m y l Left of t = r Left of h = g Left of m = n Left of y = t Left of l = k → r g n t k? That’s nonsense. on keyboard to get plaintext (i.e., cipher letter is left of plain) So plain = key to the right of cipher letter. But “twisted metal 2” being plain suggests only
thmyl t’s right = y h’s right = j m’s right = , (comma) — not good. So no. for encoding , so to decode, shift right. If they encoded by moving each letter one key left on QWERTY, then decode by moving right.
