Cryptex Hunt (organized by Cryptex Security Boxes)
When: Twice a year, Spring and Fall
For how long: ~ 1 week (or 1 month, depending on what you are fighting for)
How: Online
History and rules:
The Cryptex Hunt is an annual, online hunt that involves searching for hidden puzzles. It normally runs for a week and features puzzles released daily. So far, the puzzles were hidden in a MUD, in a magazine, in a novel, in an 8-bit adventure game (YEY!), in a puzzle (inception much), and in a YouTube video. The first-place winner receives a custom Nevins Line Cryptex® and a second-draw prize of a standard 5-ring Cryptex®.
How to Participate: Create an account. Join or create a team. You are ready to go.
