In recent years I've gotten very into puzzle hunts! I generally hunt with Literally Animal Farm.
Here are the puzzle hunts I have meaningfully participated in, in reverse chronological order.
| 2026-07 | Edric's 2026 Puzzle Extravaganza | An incredibly cool hunt concept where the entire content of the hunt is available from the start! You have to build your own puzzles before solving them, and the final meta is genuinely one of the coolest puzzles I've ever seen. |
| 2026-07 | Puzzled Pint July 2026 | Gulliver's Travels themed, with an incredibly cute meta gimmick in particular. |
| 2026-06 | Puzzled Pint June 2026 | Tarot-cards! One day I shall remember how those work but this day was not that day ! |
| 2026-05 | Puzzled Pint May 2026 | Rowing-themed puzzles! |
| 2026-04 | Brown Puzzle Hunt 2026 | Take all sorts of majors at Brown Puzzle University! Really cool hunt structure and really solid puzzles! |
| 2026-04 | Puzzled Pint Apr 2026 | A tribute to the Beetles (any resemblance to real-world musicians or music entire coincidental). A particularly nice puzzled pint set. |
| 2026-03 | Puzzled Pint Mar 2026 | A paper and pencil escape room. |
| 2026-02 | Puzzled Pint Feb 2026 | A short, fun, and approachable murder-mystery. |
| 2026-01 | MIT Mystery Hunt 2026 | My second mystery hunt and LAF's first finish! Cardinality made a super fun world and a great set of puzzles! |
| 2026-01 | Puzzled Pint Jan 2026 | A tribute to The Grateful Dead, which I unfortunately know nothing about. Still fun!. |
| 2025-10 | MIT Mystery Hatch | The pre-hunt for MIT Mystery Hunt 2026. Very fun and pretty approachable! Excited to see what else Providence will do! |
| 2025-09 | DASH 12 | Fantastic in-person puzzle hunt taking place in many cities at once! Has a "run-around" structure that is pretty chill. |

| 2025-06 | Microsoft Puzzlehunt 24 | Fun online hunt with a large team size; also on the tricky end. |
| 2025-05 | Puzzled Pint May 2025 | My first puzzled pint! It's a fun night at a bar where you do puzzles. For this one, help a puzzle-y AI come to life! |
| 2025-04 | Brown Puzzle Hunt 2025 | Approachable and very fun; went in-person and had a great time! |
| 2025-03 | Teammate Hunt 2025 | Beautifully-constructed hunt featuring multiple timelines and really tricky puzzles. A bit too hard for me to appreciate to the fullest but it was very well-made. |
| 2025-01 | MIT Mystery Hunt 2025 | The main event; D&M did a wonderful job at making this a fantastic in-person experience! |
| 2024-09 | Galactic Puzzle Hunt 2024 | A wonderful gacha game-inspired hunt where you "wish" for puzzles; super approachable for beginners! |
These are hunts I was not present for live, but have meaningfully worked on them after the fact. Dates are roughly when I worked on them.
| 2026-03 | CMU Puzzle Hunt: Worm Hunt | Would you still love me if I was a worm? |
Here are some of my favorite puzzles from hunts I've solved! An (M) indicates a meta-puzzle, which uses answers to previous puzzles in the hunt.
I'm still very new to it, but have started writing hunt-style puzzles!
I like logic puzzles, and have written some! Here's a collection separated by genre.
