marks of the 3 subdivisions should add up to 10 marks (the marks
are specified in the question papers you look into).

Players will find themselves in a high stakes imaginary location

and will have to move through a storyline filled with science
based riddles and puzzles at crucial junctions.

The riddles will test survival skills, application of scientific

knowledge and quick thinking. Upon solving each riddle, find the
next clue and proceed.

The first team to find the treasure wins.

Usage of devices are prohibited.

the same theme.

We strongly discourage purchasing models from external sources

or being made by experts. Any instances of such violation of
rules shall result in immediate disqualification.
Participants are requested to bring their own batteries, junction
boxes, etc, which are required for their models. Only the power
supply will be provided by us.
