Puzzled Pint is a not-for-profit, volunteer-run event,[3] with a goal of introducing new players to the world of puzzlehunts.

An archive of all previous puzzles is on the website and available under a flexible Creative Commons license so that they may be repurposed for other events and activities.

Puzzled Pint was started in July 2010 in Portland, Oregon; that city now sees a regular attendance of at least 100 players.

[4] It expanded to include Seattle in October 2012, and additional cities have been added over the years, to 60 locations and 3113 players in August 2018.

[5] From April 2020 the puzzles began to be posted online on event dates, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
