For the first time, ISTA is organizing a puzzle hunt featuring puzzles designed by ISTA scientists for employees of ISTA . On Thursday, March 21st, 2024, at 4 pm, the search for the ISTA egg begins. Participants sign up as teams of up to five puzzle solvers and are given 24 hours to navigate through a jungle of entangled interdisciplinary puzzles. The following day, on Friday, March 22nd, at 4 pm, the winning team will be announced, and solutions to all puzzles presented. The puzzles are designed to cater to both experienced puzzle solvers and beginners. Furthermore, while 24 hours are set as the time limit, ambitious teams may solve all puzzles in considerably less time. Brain food, in the form of pizza, snacks, and drinks, will be provided on Thursday evening, and the closing act on Friday. Will you and your team of up to 5 interdisciplinary puzzlers be the first to find the long-awaited ISTA egg and uncover the mystery of the puzzling signal?
