Summer Series TicketsDoes everyone on my team need a ticket? No, every ticket allows one team of two to four people to participate.
Where can I find more information about each challenge? On these pages! Hudson Yards Hunt: https://info.ggc.nyc/hudson-yards-teambuilding Terminal Time Trial: https://info.ggc.nyc/grand-central-teambuilding Central Park Sprint: https://info.ggc.nyc/central-park-teambuilding
Are these brand new challenges? No! We have run these challenges before. The Hudson Yards Hunt was 2024's Flagship challenge GGC MMXXIV, puzzles in Terminal Time Trial appeared in GGC MMXXIII, and our Central Park Sprint has been around for much longer than that. If you can't remember if you've participated in one of these events, contact us.
How long does the experience last? Expert puzzlers may be able to complete the experience in about 1 hour. A normal team may take around 1.5 hours, and inexperienced teams regularly take over 2 hours.
Is this experience challenging? It’s about as challenging as an easy to moderate escape room. You will be on your feet for 90-120 minutes, and walk 1+ miles in the summer. You will be solving puzzles that may be challenging for some. These puzzles use all sorts of skills and trivia, so you don’t need to be a math whiz or anything
