An online treasure hunt event that tests your technical and analytical skills. This event will require immense general knowledge, absolute prowess over the art of decoding clues and a lot of common sense coupled with a faithful internet connection.
There are several levels, once you clear one level you will be directed to the next level. In each level clues will be hidden in the web page itself. All you need to do is to find the clues and find the answer that relates all the clues and put the answer in the input box provided.
Each question has an unique answer, which must be entered inorder to reach the next level.
The overall leaderboard will rank players based on the total points secured in descending order.
Solving a level (till level 50) awards the player with 200 points.
The first player to crack a level gets bonus points. Everyone else gets the base 200 points only.
Levels 51+ don’t award bonus points when solved first, but instead offer 400 points to every player who solves them.
There are 2 leaderboards, the main/overall leaderboard and the daily leaderboard.
The main leader board is solely based on the points.
The daily leaderboard is based only on levels solved.
Each day has a level cap, i.e. the last question any player can solve on that day, the next question will only available on the next day. So, the person to solve the last level on a specific day(except the last day of the hunt) will win the daily prize.
All the answers are lowercase alphanumeric without spaces and special characters(unless specified otherwise). For Example, if the answer to Level 0 is Pragyan 2k19, enter “pragyan2k19”.
Think twice before giving any answers to your friends. Generocity doesn’t fetch you points. It’s each player for himself.
All decisions by the event managers are final and binding.
Players are ranked based on the points they score.
Top 3 players on the leaderboard at the end of the hunt will be declared as winners.
If there is a tie in the points scored, then the participant who solved more number of levels is ranked higher.
Even if there is a tie for the number of levels solved, then participant who solved the last level first (based on the time) is ranked higher.
A participant can get prize only for one day i.e., if the participant tops the leaderboard at the end of a day for more than one day, then the participant gets the prize only for the latest day.
The overall winner won’t qualify for any of the daily prizes. If he/she has won any daily prize, then it will carry over to the next player on the daily leaderboard of that day.
