On the Road to Knowledge game from Via Michelin online
I sometimes enjoy hunt lists, riddles, puzzles and things so I found this press release interesting. The hunt goes from September 1 to October 5 and this is the official website where you can enter and get more information.
Since it's a European company, I'm not sure that non-Europeans are eligible. Also, they say the game is simple so I'm not sure it will be fun for those who want a serious challenge.
Here's the press release:
Win a two week holiday to Mauritius, travel vouchers, iPods and more, by playing the simple 'On the Road to Knowledge' game from Via Michelin online. From 1st September to 5th October 2008, visitors to the Via Michelin website will be challenged to solve a series of riddles and discover the hidden treasures of Europe via the Via Michelin "Road to Knowledge".
Riddles and clues...
Participants will be challenged to solve a fresh puzzle every five days throughout the five week duration of the Treasure Hunt. In order to solve these riddles, participants will be offered a series of clues hidden in the Maps, Travel & Tourism and Hotels & Restaurants sections
of the Via Michelin website. Competitors will also have the option to request support from friends in order to progress in the competition.
At the end of the competition, players must have solved as many puzzles as possible in order to qualify for a series of prize draws for rewards that include a trip for two to Mauritius, various weekend breaks in Europe and iPod Touches.

The game is only open to residents of the countries of the European Union. :-( But it looks like it would be a lot of fun to play.
