Does anyone have a good site or link to a place that has RPG ready puzzles?
I've visited a bunch of websites for RPG's, and there are few references to
puzzles(ala "you enter a room and see 5 oddly shaped devices, it would
appear they are for the 5 oddly shaped holes in the wall, blah blah, etc
etc"). The true "puzzle websites" often require a LOT of "twisting" to make
them fit into a typical RPG scenario, given that most of the puzzles are
word searches, mathematical puzzles, chess moves, mazes, and so on.
So, I've got 2 days, and I have to find "a puzzle" that will provide a
little enjoyment for my players without having to twist it in and make it
fit through largely unnatural means.
I know that myself and my players as well are not big fans of "the riddle"
style of puzzle(spoken by a magic mouth, etc), so that's kind of out(I found
the netbook of riddles). For reference, this will likely be used as a "get
to the next level blocked door" kind of thing, although any puzzle, as long
as it is somewhat challenging and fits into a "standard dungeon crawl"
scenario would be nice.
What would be most useful is a link to a website that has a decent selection
of ready made puzzles for just plunking down in the middle of an adventure.
Thanks in advance.
