• Puzzle Hunt Challenge will start at 6pm on July 13th, 2023
  • Teams must register in ADVANCE (Scroll Down to Sign up)
  • There is no limit to team size

  • We are using a new application to run the puzzle hunt
    • That means that each team will have their own game.
    • Each person on the team can log into the game together to see the clues.
    • You will have your own timer showing your time to completion
    • If you leave the game, you can jump right back in to the same spot
    • The game will store your clues as you find them
  • We will start at 6pm on July 13th
    • At that time, everyone will receive a link to their individual game at the email address used to sign up for the group (if you don’t see it check spam)
    • The person who signed up can share that link with everyone in the group
  • There will be one puzzle for each location again, but there may be more than one clue in each location
    • There will be riddles to help you find the clue when you are in the correct location

  • All locations will be in Byron, Minnesota
  • There is no penalty for incorrect answers on the site (answers will give you a hint of the format that it is expecting for answers)
  • Recommend a phone with a Maps application (ie Google Maps)
  • The clues may require searching when you get to the location, but there will be riddles to give you a hint
  • All of the clues will be visible without moving any items
  • Each team will receive their own link to the game at the email address they provided while booking.
  • A paper and Pen is recommended
  • Do NOT take the clues with you.  Recommend taking a picture in case you need it again later.
  • If you have questions during the hunt, please reach out to Escape Challenge via Facebook Messenger

Prizes will be for the first three teams that finish.
