Welcome to The Menagerie! This puzzle hunt was written as a bonus for the Enigmas deck of playing cards Kickstarted in 2020. You can download the puzzle hunt as a PDF here:

THE MENAGERIE

When you solve a puzzle, please confirm your answer to receive additional information that you will need to solve the metapuzzle -- the puzzle on the front page of the PDF, which uses the answers from the 8 other puzzles to give an overall final answer. To confirm an answer, please enter a URL of the form:

https://sites.google.com/view/davespuzzles/home/menagerie-LOWERCASEANSWER

except replace LOWERCASEANSWER with the answer to the puzzle, in lower case without spaces. If your answer is correct, you will receive a message saying so, along with some bonus information needed to solve the metapuzzle. If your answer is incorrect, you will receive a message stating that the page does not exist.

When you have solved the metapuzzle, you may confirm its answer in the same way.

If you need a hint along the way, sequential hints are available on this hint tree (about 7 per puzzle, which you can reveal one at a time). If you'd like personalized hints, or to let me know you have solved the Hunt, or even just to tell me how things are going, feel free to email me at dshukan@gmail.com. Successful finishers will have their names added to the MENAGERIE WALL OF FAME.

Happy Solving!
