The epic.HUNT Returns

Hunt ReturnsLooking for something to test your mind at epic.THIRTEEN in between games?

We're excited to confirm the return of the popular puzzle hunt at our next event, run by the awesome but ever-so-slightly-evil team from CantFitMyN.

For those of you who haven't taken part in this sort of puzzle before, the idea for this event comes from a concept used at Dreamhack (the DH Game), and various other worldwide puzzle-hunt type games. This particular hunt takes you through a series of digital and event-based clues to lead you to the right answer for each question. This game is a test of your initiative, knowledge, lateral thinking, puzzle solving, code-breaking and some creative image/sound processing skill.

 

Full details about prizes and rules to be confirmed closer to the event! But for now, make sure you've grabbed your ticket so you can take part!
