About the competition

Participation is opened for individuals and 3-person teams. Their nomination is decided by representatives of the countries associated with the World Puzzle Federation. If your country is not a member of WPF, you can write to us, become an individual member and register. Otherwise, please contact your national representative. Representatives of non-European countries have the right to participate, if the capacity of the hall allows, but they will not be included in the official ranking.

Download the Instruction Booklet (V1.1.) for all individual and team rounds. We will not distribute copies of the booklets at the competition; please bring them with you. However, a list of rounds and individual puzzles will be available to you.
