Puzzles


I’ve been designing puzzles for over five years, now! Here are a few of the things I’ve created:

The Massachusetts Mysteries

I’m designing city scavenger puzzle hunts that run through different neighborhoods of Boston/Cambridge/Somerville! They are slightly easier than PuzzledPint and targeted towards a more general audience. Events will run on a somewhat-monthly basis, though we’ll take a break during the winter – the best way to stay up to date is to follow our Humanitix organizer profile.

PuzzledPint

Puzzled Pint is a casual, social puzzle solving event which happens at bars/pubs on the second Tuesday of every month in multiple cities around the world (35+ cities and counting!). These puzzle sets are designed to take between 1-3 hours, depending on player experience levels.

  • January 2027 – ???
  • March 2025 – The Monkey King
  • June 2024 – Sushi
  • March 2023 – Not Another D&D Podcast
  • January 2022 – Avatar the Last Airbender
  • April 2021 – Greek Mythology

Other Stuff

  • I wrote some bonus puzzles for the Boston showing of The Wedding Party!
  • Sometimes, I write puzzles for Constructed Adventures!
  • I designed a puzzle for the 2025 Cthulhu Luau
  • For two years, I created a puzzle adventure that led players through the East Baltimore campus of Johns Hopkins.

Virtual Escape Rooms

These virtual “escape rooms” are available through Google Forms and are best played in groups of 2-3 people who are working together either remotely or in person.

  • magfest escape room – Made in 2021 when one of my favorite gaming conventions, MAGFest, was cancelled due to the pandemic.
  • hopkins escape room – Made in 2020 when it was clear that the pandemic shutdowns were not going away anytime soon.
