Challenge

HV19.19 ?

Solution

We see a bunch of emoji and immediately think its EmojiCode!
Initially we want to play around with the code so we go tio.run/#emojicode6 and enter in our code.

Upon running our code we get a prompt and entering random input crashes our program to panick and crash:

Amazingly, based on the prompt alone of Santa being confused around a lock emoji (?) , I decide to try the key emoji (?) as input.
This actually gave me the flag making the time to completion only 8 minutes!
Unintended but I’ll take it.

Flag:  HV19{*<|:-)____\o/____;-D}
