Tips from your Puzzle Hunt organizers:

Pay special attention to the wording and details, especially italicized words or letters.
Many puzzles require thinking outside of the box—have your team brainstorm ideas, and test each one accordingly. Double check your work! Careless errors lead to being frustrated and stuck.
Use the internet! Looking at past puzzle hunts or puzzle hunting tips in general can often be useful.
Work quietly and secretly! Remember: there is only one grand prize.
Most importantly, don’t give up! The puzzles are tricky, but we believe in you!

Good luck, and happy hunting!
