Puzzled Pint

Puzzled Pint is a monthly puzzle tradition running around the world for 15 years, in London for over 12 and in Brighton since February.

Imagine a team pub quiz but replace all the questions with puzzles: word puzzles, picture puzzles, logic puzzles, ciphers, figure-the-rules-out puzzles, maybe some physical puzzles. Then dial the competitiveness right down; hints are free and teams’ performances are not explicitly compared – game control will make sure that everyone gets to see and solve all the puzzles they want to.

Teams are typically 3-4, but there’s no restriction either way, and will typically take somewhere around two hours, to get through the puzzles; they’re just difficult enough to be interesting… even if you’ve been drinking a bit.

At Strange Games Festival, we’ll rerun an old set of puzzles that previously proved popular. Maybe you’ll enjoy it so much that you’ll want to check out future months’ sets, on the second Tuesday of every month in nine UK towns from Winchester to Edinburgh – see https://puzzledpint.org/ for details.
