A puzzle asks you to find the hidden answer or pattern behind something that at first glance looks incomplete or meaningless (a computer scientist might call it a “planted problem”). I like writing and solving puzzles of all sorts, especially puzzles in puzzle hunts. I once wrote for and commentated a crossword tournament.
Here are some selected puzzles. If you “figure out” how the puzzle works and “do it”, then you can get a single answer word or phrase from each one. If you want to see how the puzzle works, you can read the solutions.
Here are other puzzles that I’ve made.
