What's a puzzlehunt?
A puzzlehunt is an event where people, usually in teams (here, of size at most 3), solve a series of puzzles. We have a very ... loose definition of 'puzzle'. To get a better sense of our definition of 'puzzle', see e.g. https://blog.vero.site/post/puzzlehunts, and to try previous years' puzzles, https://ph.cucats.org/hunt/
Where's the puzzlehunt?
We'll meet at [location disclosed upon sign-up] at 1200 for a short briefing and then send you off on your own. Expect to need access to a computer, and expect to discover parts of Cambridge you might not have seen before.
How long is the puzzlehunt?
However long it takes until the hunt is over. Typically, this is bounded above by 24 hours. There may be an afterparty.
Who would enjoy the puzzlehunt?
Anyone who likes solving puzzles (with a slight STEM flavour). We're hoping for this to be fun for people who have never done a puzzlehunt before -- and you don't need to enjoy solving the newspaper Sudoku or cryptic either (although that may well help). We recommend having team members who study a range of subjects, including the humanities.
How do I join the puzzlehunt?
By filling in the form above. We will have a limited number of spaces if demand is high, so sign up ASAP to guarantee yourself a place.
