DASH (Different Area, Same Hunt) is an annual non-profit puzzle hunt event that takes place on the same day in multiple cities around the world. Teams of 3 to 5 players solve puzzles in a friendly competition. As each puzzle is solved, more of the hunt's ongoing story is revealed, and teams receive directions to walk to another nearby location to find the next puzzle.
This event is designed for both new/casual players (Standard level) and experienced puzzlers looking for a challenge (Expert level) and has an automated hint system to keep everyone on track and having fun. While there is nothing "adult" in the content, the puzzles have been designed to be fun/challenging for adults. Team registration costs $60 (so $12 to $20 per player depending on your team size).
"A patient has come down with a variety of mysterious ailments, and your team has been called to investigate. You've dealt with puzzle-related illnesses before, but this time you'll be working at a much smaller scale. Diagnose! Assemble! Shrink! Heal!"
We're excited to be bringing this event to the beautiful Lake Merritt/Uptown area of Oakland this year and hope you can join in for the fun. Register at
