Organized by 1st Avenue mall,
Merdeka Hunt 2014 promised to be a trial of physical, mental and teamwork. It turned out to be exactly so, as the hunters found to their delight!

During the briefing, COC Jayaram Menon reassured the participants that the hunt difficulty was not too challenging, which appeared to bring sighs of relief. The hunters were required to explore all the floors, right from the highest Cloud 8 Level, to Lower Ground level in search of answers.

The questions were mostly not cryptic; however the solvers need to have reasonable general knowledge with good Eye Q.
The 25 questions really tested the observation skill of hunters to spot various objects and logos. While several posers needed the pictures of animals, a few required them to search for writing symbols, figures and shapes in the shop's names, logos or symbols.
Some Hunt Q&A
 |
Animals Q6: It's named for an effect
in chaos theory. |
 |
Shapes Q10: All its six sides are
square. |
 |
Figures Q15. It's unlucky looking
back. |
 |
Writing Symbols Q17: It does not
allow the full name to be revealed. |
There were also 3 challenges thrown into the 3-hour event!
Challenge 1 involved the use of torchlight to transmit a Merdeka-related word, via Morse code! However it was fun watching a few hunters creatively draw the dots and lines in the air using the torchlight!

| Challenge 2 |
For Challenge 2, the teams paid a visit to Escape Room at Level 3 to solve an IQ poser and open a treasure chest. Not too difficult for most hunters!
Finally, Challenge 3 merely required the participants to donate and help with the Merdeka Charity Drive.
As usual, there were the ohhs and ahhs from the audience during the answer presentation; as the COC revealed the solutions and explained the rationale.
To put it in a nutshell, the hunters truly enjoyed celebrating our Merdeka in a unique way!
Malaysia, Here Where Love Begins!!!
