Puzzles

I love anything that falls into the category: Math Puzzles, Word Puzzles, Jigsaw puzzles, Room Escape games... etc.

I have been the author of the puzzle corner 'Eureka!' in Matematik Dunyasi (a Turkish Mathematics Magazine) for 10 years now. I love devouring math puzzle books, and I am a big fan of Martin Gardner.

I always love hearing about new puzzles, and discussing different solutions. You can e-mail me at ezgikantarcioguz@gmail.com anytime with a puzzle to gain my undying friendship.

Here are some puzzle links I love:

  • Puzzle Up: A Turkish web-site for math puzzles, that contains many challenging and entertaining problems. The 2020 run was cut a bit short due to pandemic, still enjoyable though.

  • Puzzled Pint : A monthly puzzle hunt held in a different bar each month. I was involved with the organization in LA, then we hosted Puzzled Pint on Stockholm. One day in Turkey too, hopefully.

  • D.A.S.H.: A full day puzzle event, plus you can download the previous puzzles from their website.

  • Panda Magazine: You can always see me with one of these amazing puzzle magazines, trying to work out what to do. You do not only have to solve the puzzle, you have to figure out what the puzzle is without instructions.
