MIT Mystery Hunt

The MIT Mystery Hunt is an annual puzzle competition held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Teams of participants solve a series of intricate puzzles that require critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork. Each puzzle typically leads to a clue that helps unlock the next challenge, and they often cover a wide range of topics, including mathematics, logic, pop culture, and language. The event, which usually lasts for about 48 hours, culminates in a final puzzle that reveals the location of a hidden coin, making it both a challenging intellectual pursuit and a fun way to engage with a diverse community.
