uncryptic

Not at all mysterious

Uncryptic means clear and straightforward, the opposite of cryptic.

Something uncryptic is easily understood, lacking mystery or hidden meaning: Her instructions were refreshingly uncryptic.

The word appears mainly in contexts where obscurity might be expected but isn't: an uncryptic message, an uncryptic answer.
