Hackathon Online

About the game

Hackers are a special breed: intuitive, smart, ambitious, skilled, and above all, out-of-the-box thinkers and doers! Teaming them up is another challenge altogether — and the dual goal of this demanding game.

Go online, tune your team brains up, solve as many riddles as possible and hack the coded message to reach the highest score. Performing better and faster than the rest of the hacker teams goes without saying!

Characteristics

Quick guide: participants are split into teams and receive the game manual by email, informing them about the rules and technologies involved. The manual is sent several days before the event, getting everyone ready and "psyched" for the contest. On the day, the teams receive a password to access the e-book with the riddles.

The hacking challenge: when the game is on, the leader of each team registers on the game's platform to send answers to the scoring system, while everyone gets into a puzzle-solving frenzy. Solved riddles win alphabet letters and points — the letters correspond to a source code the coded message is written in: your team's final goal.

The team with the highest score at the end of the game wins, awarded with the Best Hackers Ever badge!
