Opportunity Description:
CodeSanta's Sleigh Rush is a fast paced Christmas themed competitive programming event hosted by the Amity Competitive Programming Club. Participants explore a custom interactive puzzle platform where each stage appears as a location on a festive map. Teams solve logic driven CP problems and enter final answers directly. The challenge focuses on reasoning accuracy and algorithmic understanding instead of writing full code.
The event contains four progressive stages.
Stage 1 - Candyhouse Cottage with easy CP puzzles.
Stage 2 - Snowflake Workshop with medium difficulty problems.
Stage 3 - Reindeer Training Barn with hard puzzles.
Stage 4 - Santa's Headquarters with the final challenge.
Teams of two unlock new stages by submitting correct answers. Incorrect attempts trigger fun Christmas themed visual or audio effects. The entire experience runs for about one hour.
