What do you get with a membership?

  • Access to The Enigma, NPL’s monthly magazine featuring puzzles created by our members; what types of puzzles? You can see in our free minisample [linkto:minsample]
  • Full member access to the NPL website, including puzzle solving tools
  • Access to our online meeting places, including chat on Slack, mailing lists, and a Facebook page

Membership, including a subscription to The Enigma, is just $30 annually ($35 outside the US, and $20 if you don’t need a hard copy of The Enigma; as a member you can access the current issue of The Enigma, and the full archive, online).  

New members receive a welcome from our vice-presidents B‑Side and WXYZ (our members refer to themselves and each other by puzzle noms), who will introduce you to some of our traditions. You can engage with the NPL however you like. Want to attend our annual convention and meet other people with similar puzzle passions? We’d love to have you! Want to solve puzzles in The Enigma on your own? Perfect! Interested in joining up with a solving group in your area or online? Great! Not sure where to start? B‑Side and WXYZ will be happy to help you get oriented. New puzzlers are just as welcome as seasoned pros. It’s all about having fun while flexing your mental muscles.

If you’re passionate about puzzles (or even just intrigued), the NPL is the place to be.  We hope you’ll join us!
