Puzzle Pint Arrives in Valencia

We have a free puzzle event for people who like a tough mental challenge is starting in Valencia – Puzzled Pint – that I thought you readers would be interested to learn about.

Puzzled Pint is an internationally renowned puzzle solving event that takes place across 78 locations in 16 countries. This new event in Valencia will be the first in Spain.

The puzzles are fun and similar to those that you sometimes find in escape rooms, though they are done using paper. Puzzles could be as simple as a wordsearch with a twist to full cyphers you need to break using binary code and braille (code sheets supplied). If you like escape rooms or modern board games, you will likely enjoy Puzzled Pint.

Puzzled Pint is a free social puzzle solving event which happens at bars worldwide on the second Tuesday of every month. Most teams of 2 to 4 people take between 1 to 2 hours to solve a typical puzzle set of 5 puzzles. The event is held in English and a high level of comprehension will be needed (B2+).

The logic puzzles always have a different monthly theme, such as the 7 deadly sins or the tv show ‘Friends’, but no outside knowledge is necessary. The puzzles are all about using your brain to solve the puzzle, not remembering facts, so you are allowed to Google anything and/or ask for hints as much as you like.

When? It will then be on the second Tuesday of every month (i.e. 10th January, etc)

Where? El Garaje Foodie, Carrer del Dr. Ferran, 10, 46021, Valencia

How to book? There is no need to book in advance, just show up at El Garaje by 8pm and ask for Puzzled Pint.

James, who is one of the cofounders of the Valencia chapter of Puzzled Pint and VLC Board Games said “We are looking forward to bring Spain’s first ever Puzzled Pint event to our home here in Valencia. The puzzles are always unique, like nothing you will have seen before, and it is amazing that we will get to share them with so many enthusiastic solvers. Really looking forward to it!”

Eliana, another cofounder of the Valencia chapter of Puzzled Pint and VLC Board Games added “We are very excited to bring Puzzled Pint to Valencia. We already run the biggest English-speaking board game event in Valencia and a lot of the people there ask us for more mentally challenging activities to do together. James and I have been playing Puzzled Pint together for years since we first tried it in London so we knew it would be great to bring to Valencia”

Stu, cofounder of Puzzled Pint Valencia, Boardgames Valencia and popular weekly Valencia Pub quiz ‘Quiz Eat Drink’ also said “We’re bringing the international sensation Puzzled Pint to Valencia for the first time, as part of VLC Board Games. It’s a great opportunity for teams of friends to meet other puzzle lovers and connect over a drink or two, all in the fantastic surroundings of El Garaje in Mestalla. Run by veteran pub quizzers and gamers, it’s a lot of fun and a great night of mental and social stimulation! Brought to you by the organisers of VLC Board Games and Quiz Eat Drink.”
