How to Play:
Players will get 10 puzzles to solve. You can either give them the puzzles or hide them and turn them into a scavenger hunt. As they solve the puzzles, they will record the answers on an answer sheet.
The host can provide hints for a price. It can be a 1-2 minute penalty or even a fun activity that the player has to perform, like a song, dance or tell a joke. It all depends on your group and your imagination.
Some puzzles require a decoder. You can provide the decoder or hide it for extra complexity.
While solving the puzzles, the players record their answers on the answer sheet.
When they complete the answer sheet, the host can provide them with the answer key. This is the final decoder ring. The answer key will reveal the answer based on the answer sheet.
The first player to find the final answer wins.
For extra motivation, you can introduce a small prize for the winner.
