The first Qrossie

Snooty lay peacefully asleep, dreaming of death-defying leaps of thought and wicked connects for his next impossible-to-crack quiz. Oh, the world was so easy to befuddle! Miles away, the drug peddler was a little more cautious. She wasn’t quite used to this yet. She darted down another devious alley, scrambling to hide. Couldn’t afford to be too obvious. She left no easy trails, though there were clues dropped aplenty! After enough running, dodging and battling it out with technology, the first Qrossie finally took shape.

While she recuperates, the chequered field is now yours to conquer! All you need to do is send a screenshot of your solution to quizarre@gmail.com. Solve quick, and you shall enter the hallowed winners’ roll.
