http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au/ub/sums/puzzlehunt/2018/main After a year's hiatus, the ΣUMS Puzzle Hunt is back in 2018! The ΣUMS Puzzle Hunt was created to encourage people to employ mathematical thinking without having to understand any maths. The puzzles are designed to not require any specialist knowledge and so should be quite accessible for everyone. Our puzzles range in style from picture and word puzzles, to logic and cryptic puzzles, and everything in between. To get an idea of what to expect, check out the puzzles from our previous puzzle hunts. This year the hunt kicks off on Monday the 2nd of July, 2018, noon AEST. Be sure to check the rules and FAQ for more information.

Puzzled Pint is a social puzzle solving event which happens on the second Tuesday of every month in locations around the world! For the current list of PP cities, visit our web site (link above).

How to play: the Friday before each event, we post a location puzzle to our web site. The solution to that puzzle will lead you to a local pub/bar/restaurant in your city. Hints will be available online!

On the night of the event, show up at the pub and we'll have more puzzles for you to solve while you enjoy drinks and food. Most teams take between 30 minutes and 2 hours to solve a typical puzzle set. "Game Control" will be on hand to give hints and verify answers.

Standings will be posted every month, but the goal of Puzzled Pint is for everyone to have fun! We welcome your thoughts on how to improve future events.

http://www.mastermindhunts.com/mastermind-hunt-sanjose (2nd running) Giant monsters (Kaiju) are closing in on San Jose! Where do they come from? What do they want? We don't know, but it probably involves reducing the city to rubble! Determining how to stop them will be a bit of a puzzle, but you and your team may be the only ones who can save us. Mark your calendars for the morning of Saturday, September 8, 2018 and stand by for more details.

http://playdash.org/ DASH 10 will be Saturday, September 22, 2018. Stay tuned for more!
