puzzles?

Post by mspowerplant »

Ok here's my ideas to start off how about simple tile puzzles that can lead to a quest item or
continuing on with a quest or even to a side room with a bed and storage area in some of the larger caves..
The puzzles could be a simple number,colour or picture puzzle they could be made to be refreshed after each use or use them once and the doors open.
There easy enough to design and I can come up with a few if anyone's interested
Sorry if someone else already mentioned this
cheers

No! Not more puzzles! This is hard enough with all of the grinding, and now there are puzzles in the new version as well... (the maze)

I almost decided to give up the game already; it's getting too difficult for me. If you make more puzzles, I might just have to give up and go play pokemon or something easier... :oops: :cry:

What's the puzzle in prim? Also here's my idea.
going with the puzzle that opens a secret area, what if we find a blank square or something on the wall. Near the blank area a sign says "it is small, it is rare, place it here, and you can get there."

Or
"finish the puzzle and the path will be reviled " but a piece is missing stolen by a monster so you have to find the puzzle to enter.

That's more of a riddle than a puzzle, just not a rhyming riddle... but I think I can help with making riddles rhyme. I'm good with a pen, er, keyboard.

The second one is also more like a quest than a puzzle, so I'm also cool with that... but is it really a puzzle? You only have to guess which boss drop is needed.

Who says a puzzle has the be a physical puzzle? Ie something with pieces or sliding picture. Why not a mental puzzle? And those were just examples. I can probably come up with a better one. But yeah just my ideas

lol, I wasn't challenging you, Sorrow. I was saying that those are good ideas, but they aren't what mspowerplant was suggesting. That said, I'd love to help with making these puzzles.

Oh I know you weren't wyrm. I'm just saying why limit puzzles that are only like jigsaw puzzles or sliding puzzles? Why not mental puzzles?

Nykos thank you so very much for the vote of support :-)
I will be uploading a few over the next couple of days

Sorrow is correct puzzles can be either physical or mental I just have a better grasp on physical ones.
We could even do a combination of the 2

Wrymspawn thankyou for you input I was thinking of making the puzzles harder as the hero develops
