5 Days Running is an armchair treasure hunt that is absolutely free to participate in. The first person to solve all 5 puzzles will be the winner. See the complete rules and details below. Each puzzle will be released individually at varying random times in the next days or weeks and each will be announced on my YouTube channel 3D Bronze. I suggest subscribing and ringing the notification bell to be informed right when each puzzle launches. Prizes for the hunt will be shown below and additional prizes may be added. You may begin at anytime and do so by clicking the link for Day 1 below. After solving the first puzzle, you can then use the answer from the previous puzzle to unlock the page for the next. Once Day 2’s puzzle is uploaded, you can begin that puzzle and repeat the process for the next. The hunt will have 5 different puzzles that may include codes and ciphers, each varying in difficulty. Have fun and good luck!

The Prizes
The Rules
1. This hunt is free and anyone can participate.
2. 100% armchair. No BOTG.
3. Answers can be submitted anytime via the password boxes on their respective pages once the previous puzzle is uploaded. The answers needs to be submitted in all lowercase (no spaces if it’s more than one word). The answer can be anything and is not limited to what is contained in the story. Like all past hunts/puzzles of mine, you need to submit the answer precisely as intended/coded/ciphered/hidden/implied, etc. To win you must provide the correct answer for all puzzles and have the solution used to get the correct answers for all puzzles. Simply overcoming the passwords will not make you the winner. Follow the instructions on the Day 5 page and the first person to do so wins.
4. No second place winners or second place prizes. One winner, one prize as determined by 3D Bronze.
5. No established end date has been set and it is my intention to let it continue until solved. That being said, I am still reserving the right to end the game at anytime for any reason with or without a winner.
6. No cheating. Don’t use computer programs, trickery or black magic to bypass the password(s) for the video(s) as this will only get you disqualified. Winners will need to provide the true solutions in order to win.
7. Play at your own risk. I’m not responsible for anything you do or any loss you take by participating.
8. I will announce when there is a winner within 24 hours of discovering it (my obvious goal is to do it asap). The announcement will be made in the form of a video on my YouTube channel. I suggest subscribing and enabling notifications so you will be notified when this happens. I also put out public videos regarding the hunt that may or may not include clues and hints. Subscribing will keep you from missing any of these videos.
9. I reserve the right to modify these rules at any time with or without notifying participants directly. Modifications will be done so on this page.
10. Winners outside of the continental United States will be responsible for shipping costs and arrangement prior to prizes being shipped.
11. Have fun!
