USAGE -TODO +This project constitutes the puzzle hunt designed for the annual retreat of DFG research training group GK1821 in 2020. + +To start, open the file puzzle_handout.pdf and read the instructions there. +Everything else is supposed to become clear in the course of the puzzle or hoped to be self-explanatory; just start puzzling where you already know what to do. +You do not need to clone the repository or otherwise download all files belonging to the project -- the puzzle will tell you which ones you need. + +If you want to jump ahead to later stages of the puzzle or to otherwise get hints or check your solutions, have a look at solutions.pdf and see the instructions there. 2.
