You’re a contestant on a medieval game show called RUN THE GAUNTLET. Solve your way through 20 puzzles to win happiness ever after! Lose and you’ll spend the rest of your life selling corndogs to cosplayers at a Renaissance faire.

How To Play

You’re running in a straight line through 20 locked puzzles. Solve the first puzzle to unlock the second puzzle, and so on — until you make it all the way to the twentieth. Along the way, you’ll unlock a series of increasingly fantastic game show prizes.

Bonus Round!

What’s a game show without a fabulous bonus round?

When you’ve solved all 20 puzzles, there’s still one more to unlock. You’ll receive that puzzle after you win the game. When you’ve solved it, you can use that password here.

Frequently Asked Questions


Why isn’t the password working?
Every password is numeric or lowercase, with no spaces. Check to make sure caps lock is off.

Why does the video say I’m locked out?
Entering too many incorrect tries (10+) in a short period of time may lock out your device or IP address for an hour. You can try a different device, or wait an hour and try again.

When do you release the answers?
The only way to learn the answers is by solving the puzzles.

I’m stuck. Can I get help?
We don’t provide additional hints by email, but here are a few things to help you.

  1. This game requires you to progress from the start to the finish, solving each puzzle before continuing.

  2. Some puzzles appear harder than they are — if you get stuck, pay attention to the wording of the instructions.

  3. In at least one puzzle, colour plays an important role.
