Who are we?

• We are Puzzle Hunt CMU, a group of puzzle enthusiasts from Carnegie Mellon University.
• We work together to solve Puzzle Hunts such as the MIT mystery hunt, or any of the many tech company puzzle hunts (examples of such companies include Microsoft, APT and Palantir).
• We also write and host CMU's very own puzzle hunt once a semester, with the goal of providing a fun-filled experience to as many members of the community as possible.

What is a puzzle hunt?

• Very simply put, it's an event where people get together to solve carefully designed puzzles which somehow link together on a larger scale.
• A puzzle hunt is typically characterized by its structure. In addition to several normal puzzles, each round has a meta-puzzle, which requires teams to have solved most of the normal puzzles to even unlock, and often requires solvers to incorporate answers from that round's normal puzzles to make sense of.
• Our puzzle hunt's structure changes from semester to semester in order to provide new challenges for solvers.
