The campaign lasted for two years, giving fans a look into the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Office of Naval Intelligence#Section Three|Section Three]] and also insight into the experiments they did. Users found glyphs that led to codes being discovered for use on [[Halo Waypoint]] (now only on the [[Xbox 360]]). While the users found codes, an [[AI]] that was originally meant to help them turned against them, giving the puzzles for the ARG.
