Random Clue Block

The random clue block displays a randomly selected clue from a list to each user. Each team consistently receives the same clue, thogh different teams will likely get different clues. This block was designed for giving players clues in a scavenger hunt or puzzle hunt, while preventing teams from sharing clues.

How It Works

The random clue block uses a deterministic algorithm to select a clue based on the team code and block ID. This means:

• Each team will always see the same clue for a specific block
• Different teams will likely see different clues
• The selection remains consistent across multiple visits
• No points are awarded or deducted

Best Practices

• Difficulty: Keep clues at similar difficulty levels since teams can’t choose
• Clarity: Write clear, self-contained clues that work independently
• Relevance: Ensure all clues are helpful for the current challenge

Notes

• Points cannot be awarded for this block
• If no clues are configured, displays “No clues available”
• If only one clue is set, all teams see the same clue
