The Turing Challenge

The Turing Challenge

Try our toughest puzzle to celebrate Alan Turing featuring on the £50 banknote

To celebrate Alan Turing featuring on the new £50 banknote, we’ve created our hardest puzzle ever in his honour.

The Turing Challenge requires you to solve a string of puzzles which get increasingly difficult. Crack the answers to the first 11 puzzles which should give you 11 single words or names which you’ll need your very own Enigma simulator to decode!

Keep an eye on our Twitter and Instagram channels throughout the day for tips and hints.

As Turing himself once said

We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.
