The game room and escape room will remain set up and open until November 5th! Personally, I found it to be the most fun part of the whole QR hunt this year (as did many others). If you haven’t yet experienced the rooms, I’d highly encourage you to take advantage of having free access to these rooms by trying to solve them yourselves.
A member of the team Lost Sheep, one of this year’s winning teams, has put together this helpful worksheet to help with a few of the games in the game room. Print it out (color printer preferred, but black and white will still work), cut the Blokus pieces out, and bring it along with you!
The entire room was set up like a 10-digit key pad:
1 2 3
Sorry Blokus Battleship
4 5 6
Rummy MadGab Boggle
7 8 9
Monopoly Taboo Scrabble
0
Mastermind
Solving the riddles of the games revealed clues about the final code needed to enter into the calculator keypad. E.g. one of them (Blokus) revealed the final code was a 7-digit code, but Blokus (at position 2 in the games) was not included.
You could solve them in any order and figure out the final code, but I’ll just go in numerical order:
Simply meant “Sorry, this number isn’t used”. No further meaning can be gleaned from the board itself. Confirmed by John.
Place each available piece with a corner touching its own color to build a 5 x 5 grid.
**S E V E N
D I G I T
C O D E B
U T N O B
L O K U S**
The letters written on the Blokus pieces spell out “Seven digit code but no Blokus”.
