MW has covered numerous armchair treasure hunts over the years. The treasure hunts are released, and in time – sometimes days, other times weeks, months, or years – they eventually get solved. Most of them. The Secret, released in 1982, has 9 of the 12 remaining treasures yet to be found. A few others linger as well, like The Hunt for the Golden Owl (1993), In Search for The DragonTooth (1994), The Whistle Pig (2003), or The Oracle (2005).
This page lists many solved hunts, and links to their solutions. Taking a look at solutions helps in understanding how they were created, and how you might be able to recognize clues and solve the next puzzle or hunt you work on!
