Hint Hunt

#1 Post by Vladikavkaz » Fri Oct 11, 2013 2:29 pm

Last night I went to Hint Hunt, which is basically a real life 'room escape' puzzle. We escaped with just under 3 minutes to spare. Very enjoyable, and would thoroughly recommend.

Yes, I've been looking at that - although they seem to be very successfully booked up for the foreseeable future!

All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".

Sounds interesting 8-)

I have often thought this would be a good way to test kids on things like basic maths... Work through the problems getting answers that finally arrive at a code to get out... The oxygen running out in this air-tight room I class as an 'incentive to learning'. ;)

:lol: :lol: Maybe I should try that with my bottom set year 8. To be honest, it wouldn't be a great loss to humanity if some of them suffocated... :lol: :mrgreen:
