A Grahampoon Production
LampyQuest is a simple, self-paced treasure hunt that runs during the Harvard Lampoon's Sesquicentennial weekend, April 24–26, 2026. If you've ever done an escape room, finished a Monday crossword, or just enjoy a good word game, this is right up your alley.
You'll travel to a few places around Harvard (about 1.5 miles of walking, all told), solve some very easy puzzles — well, easy if you have any memory of your undergrad days — and kill some time during the boring events while waiting for the parties.
The whole thing takes about two hours, but you can stop and resume whenever you want. Solo or in groups of 2–4. At your own pace. Finish by Sunday at noon.
Everything you need is on site. Look for the sign next to the registration desk in the tent — it has the codes you'll need below.
LampyQuest runs inside an app called ClueKeeper. It's free.
Open the app and set up a free account with your email. Everyone who wants to be eligible for a prize needs their own account — even if you're planning to team up with your friends.
Grab the hunt code from the sign and enter it in ClueKeeper to download LampyQuest to your phone.
Also on the sign. Enter it whenever you're ready to begin — the clock doesn't start until you do.
* You will not be the fastest finisher.
