'''[[CMU Puzzle Hunt]]''' is a biannual puzzle hunt run by '''Puzzle Hunt CMU''', a student organization at Carnegie Mellon University. In most years since 2007, Puzzle Hunt CMU has run two puzzle hunts, one in the spring semester and one in the fall semester. Hunts typically have around 20 puzzles and last less than a day, with a team size limit of 6. CMU Puzzle Hunt is typically aimed at novice to intermediate solvers.
The '''[[Quantum Online Puzzle Hunt]]''' is expected to run on April 15, 2022, organized and managed by Timwi. Teams will start with three puzzles and gradually unlock more puzzles through solving puzzles. There are expected to be 27 puzzles in the hunt, and the puzzles are designed to avoid relying on obscure pop culture references that are not easily searchable.

Welcome to Puzzle Wiki

The goal of this wiki is to catalogue puzzles and puzzle hunts, in a form that is both accessible and informative!

If you'd like to know more about how a particular puzzle works, or the mechanics involved in its creation and execution, head to its page! There you'll find a walkthrough of that puzzle's intended solve path, accompanied by a list of mechanics and puzzle elements that are prominent in its construction.

Similarly, hunt pages will have a number of ways of breaking down the experience of both solving and creating the hunt, including state diagrams, plot summaries, and facts about the hunt's conception.

Alternatively, if you want to know about particular mechanics, and perhaps find examples of puzzles that use them, you can do that too! Head to a particular mechanic's page to learn more about any variations it may have, how it's implemented most commonly, and where you might find it out in the wild.
