12 September: Different Area, Same Hunt

All-day game of puzzles, puzzles, walking, and a little navigation. And puzzles.

Grab a few chums, pick "Standard" level, and see you in London. £65 for a team of 3-5 lovelies.

Or play you virtually - DASH runs in two dozen cities on most continents.

We won! — Last Saturday I participated in a German-language #puzzlehunt named #Rätselnacht as part of the team Cheatahs. It was a lot of fun and I met a couple really nice people on that team. This is the second time I participated in Rätselnacht and I liked it a lot more than last time — mostly because of the airplane part last year (I hear others have complained about it too), but also because this year ended with a number of easy puzzles so we were able to sprint rather than limp to the finishing line. Looking forward to next year’s already! raetselnacht.de/rn5

Second day of the Glyph #PuzzleHunt about to start!

We love Glyph - it always has good puzzles and the hint system for when you are stuck generally works well.

We're down to 4 people puzzling today so the second place we've managed on a couple of previous occasions is likely out of reach, but it'll be fun to see how we do - maybe we can win the medium size team category!

Many #puzzlehunt constructors fall into the trap of making-a-puzzle-about-my-favorite-thing. What if I did the opposite: made a puzzle about something I hate?

Anyhoo, those are all the stats we have for now -- stay tuned as we'll have a few more announcements this week!

Based on my chats and giving out DIY kits, my money is it's 60-40 in favour of save, you soft lot.

Number of clippys killed or saved: NOT YET DETERMINED

Our arcade finale was a bit too last-minute to get the proper analytics treatment, so we're going to gain insights in the same way we did for our first ever @emf puzzlehunt "Dreamcatcher" back in 2018:

This weekend I'm going to go to our storage container and count how many stickers are not there.

A neat corner of the internet I hadn't come across before – the space. Sounds like teams work to solve a bunch of puzzles in a short time using online/offline resources.

One emerged three years ago at Stanford called . Their third puzzle gets started in ten days.

Seems too intensive for my tastes – a pub quiz is about as much as I ever hazard – but I like that this exists!

See the link if you're interested. Reading the about & faq is fun too.

Hello internet! Over the past year I've been working on a web-based puzzle game as a sort of side project.

Feel free to try it out here: normalexisting.neocities.org/l

The Cryptex Hunt starts today, and the theme is puzzles hidden in videos! If you like puzzles but not super competitive puzzle hunts, it's a good one to try because it's low-key and welcoming and eventually hints are released. I didn't make a puzzle this year, but I helped playtest it and there are some really creative and fun ones.
