In fight night someone said "the secret is in the coupons", well I decided to explore that idea and this is the word history of coupon:

Word History: A Roman might have had difficulty predicting what would become of the Latin word colaphus, which meant “a blow with the fist.” In Old French, a language that developed from Latin, the Late Latin word colpus, derived from colaphus, became colp, or modern French coup, with the same sense. Coup has had a rich development in French, gaining numerous senses, participating in numerous phrases, such as coup d'état,) and giving rise to many derivatives, including couper, “to divide with a blow or stroke, to cut.” Couper yielded the word coupon, “a portion that is cut off,” which came to refer to a certificate that was detachable from a principal certificate. The detachable certificate could be exchanged for interest or dividend payments by the holder of the principal certificate. Coupon is first recorded in English in 1822 with this sense and then came to apply to forms or tickets, detachable or otherwise, that could be exchanged for various benefits or used to request information.

Now the reason I posted that is because of the key phrases:
“a blow with the fist.”
and
“to divide with a blow or stroke, to cut.”

So..If the secret is in the coupons, then couldnt that mean that the secret could have something to do with Test Your Might? Or do I just have an overactive imagination?

I think we are at the point of over analyzing this. We will find out what the last secret is, if any, in due time. Although I did enjoy the history lesson. Thanks.

If you fail test your might, then SOMETIMES you hear "toasty" called out. Maybe a key combination at this point? I stress this is not my idea. came up with it.

Funny you should mention this - you totally overanalyzed the situation, but coincidentally the Test your Might theory has been brought up before...

If there IS another secret in the game (which is highly doubtful) it has to have something to do with Test your Might. There's just no other reasonable explanation.

my guess is that there must be a secret involving the krypt, otherwise, i can't figure out why koffins can be opened one time after another...it would be more logical that, once you open them all, the kript shut down automatically. ?¿?¿?¿?¿?

When i was reading above i was thinking.....maybe if you have unlocked all the koffins in the krypt you must open some koffins once more in a certain combination. for example: MO-RT-AL-KO-MB-AT or DE-AD-LY-AL-LI-AN-CE. Or maybe a combination of these 2.

I agree the secret must be in the krypt, they labeled all the coffins with each possible letter combination you can very easily spell any word you choose to. They could have assigned each coffin with numbers
