We’d recommend ages 14 years and older.The genius of this kind of an attack, Wardle says, is that it’s virtually undetectable. Can high school and college students play?įor sure! There is no reason why teenagers could not solve The Puzzle, too. You'll just need one device per team and a separate work space so you can't hear each other. Not at all - you can definitely play this game in the office. We can pre-set teams if you have a preference or randomly allocate on the call - this is often easier if you do not know exactly who is going to be playing. Do you decide on the teams when you facilitate for us or will we do this? We also use Teams frequently, but it’s our second preference. This is because of the superior breakout rooms functionality. Do you have a preferred platform for facilitating the game? What do we need to play remotely?Ī computer and a way to communicate with each other (ideally Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype, Google Meet, etc.). The large majority of teams finish 8 of 10 individual puzzles, and approximately 70% of teams solve everything and the master puzzle within 40 minutes.
because it depends on the group’s ability and how good you are at puzzles, riddles and reasoning! There are a mix of easy and difficult puzzle pieces, but there is nothing involving complex mathematics, for example. There are no bottlenecks in the game either as it’s non sequential, so if you can’t solve one your team can still move on to the next puzzle.
Teams are allowed to ask the game facilitator for the answer to a puzzle piece, but will incur a time penalty for each one requested. What happens if a team gets stuck and can’t solve a puzzle piece? We have run competitions with 2-5 players, however smaller teams generally require more time. The more players per team, the quicker you are likely to be able to solve the puzzle (and vice versa). How many players would you recommend per team?įor a 40-minute game we recommend 4-5 players per team. The majority of teams are able to solve The Puzzle in around 35-40 minutes (not including time penalties for clues). We recommend that you allow 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes in total for the game, including time to explain the rules and go through the answers. Most people play in teams of 4-5 and make it a time-based competition, which means large groups can play together. We have facilitated the game for between 6 and 500 people at one time (using multiple facilitators). We know that you are curious to know more about the puzzles themselves but generally we like to keep these to ourselves as showing you the actual puzzle pieces spoils the game! That’s no fun, is it? If your colleagues or boss keep asking just tell them they are a mix of riddles, problem-solving, logical reasoning, and visual puzzles and we can guarantee they are a good mix of challenge and fun.
