Official Google Blog: Can you crack the code?

Almost a decade later, that dream has come true: a small group of us at Google, in cooperation with Sony Pictures, have managed to create 12,358 original puzzles for The Da Vinci Code Quest on Google.



That’s right, 12,358 (I’d make a joke about Fibonacci numbers, but that would be too obvious), all designed to honor both a fanatical puzzler’s sheer love of a mental challenge and the labyrinthine spirit of The Da Vinci Code itself. They’ll be released over the next 24 days, in the form of six different challenges at four difficulty levels, with enough variety that I think everyone will be able to find something they like and play it over and over — although if you’re in the U.S., you’ll want to try to complete all 24 and make it to the Final Challenge, where I hear there’s a pretty nice prize package awaiting the winner.



It will be interesting to see whether there are any jewels hidden in here pertaining to Dan Brown’s next novel, THE SOLOMON KEY.
