An idea: Have the golem attack the characters when it awakes. They know that only it knows the code, so now one of the spellcasters must cast detect thoughts or similar magic while combat is going on
Oooh, nice. I really dig that Detect Thoughts idea! Nice addition. Cheers!

Finally figured it out it's how do you get to the next numbers and finally realized it's all just a pattern to get to the next number
Yep, this is what is called a "Number Sequence" puzzle. It's basically logical thinking to see a pattern in the numbers and predict the next one. Keep in mind that this is a HARD puzzle to run, so give as many clues as you can. Also, be sure to make it multiple choice. If there are 4 hands in the bucket, each labeled with a number, your players will have an easier time solving it if they see their "guess" is one of the answers.
Finally don't be afraid to ask them how they arrived at the answer they give and if it makes sense, say: "yep, that is the answer!", even if it is different from what is in the book. You definitely don't want to have frustrated players, so be sure to help them if they need it. But also, the timer is out, so it is also okay if the gas knocks them out. But, I think solving it is the better route to go.
Good luck!
I just realized
I suck at puzzles
Good stuff, Wally
No worries, Rivers. So do I. I can make them, but I can't solve them. lol.
I really love the setup, but some things are a little bit unclear.
What happens after they try to use wrong body parts? Is there any kind of feedback other than the DM telling them?
And how exactly are the limbs "wrong"?
Maybe using a heart instead of a limb with the weaker ones not being able to keep the golem alive. And adding a chance to awake the golem with the wrong brain, causing it to rampage - destroying the blocked door but having to be fought as well.
Hey their Weird Yarn! Thank you for starting the discussion. Funny you mention the wrong body parts, because I was thinking the same thing myself post-production of this video. The "incorrect" parts being attached is definitely left up to the DM as to what they want to happen, but, here is what I was thinking:
All four brains work, but only one has the code. The other three could be different personalities? One could be evil, one good, and one with psionic powers? One of the hands could be that of a wizard and paired with the wrong brain, it is able to cast spells? All different types of combinations and possibilities.
I definitely think you are on the right track with the brain on a rampage... and the "heart" idea is golden. Well done! I dig it.
Hope this helps, cheers!
I really enjoyed this :P Not sure if due to the goal of the puzzle or the way you presented all of it! ^^ Nice mini set up once again!
It almost reminds me of a puzzle book I owned when I was little...(I wonder if I still have it around lol)
Also, Thanks for putting the link for the book! I love and need DnD horror stuff and that book looked just like what I needed that I went and bought it :P
Thanks for the video and bringing this to our attention!
Thank you, my friend. I definitely like the way this video turned out. It was fun to add a few bits and edit. Cool you bought the book now you can run a game with it so I can play! Lol
ARE THOSE DUPLO!?
Actually, they are castle walls from a game called Crossbows & Catapults. :-)
This seems like a lot of fun. I don't think I would use it for a party without at least 2 skilled puzzle solvers though
Also, link to the trilogy with discount brings you to the guild but displays a blank page
Absolutely. This is definitely a puzzle intended for those that like them. Cheers Spencer!
Thank you for the heads up! Digging into it now...
@@WallyDM always willing to do what I can. I greatly appreciate and respect your stream.
Thank you Spencer! It's great to have ya here. :-)
I am so lost. Puzzles are hard. lol.
No worries Fred, that is why we never adventure alone! lol. Cheers, my friend. :-)
Great video. Really fun puzzle. To many puzzles and not enough places to use them! Lol keep up the great work wally
Plenty of ammo is never a bad thing, lol. As always, I appreciate the comments and support. Cheers!
hi :) loved the idea but lost the body parts as I felt it will go better for the kids i run it to them. I made it to a door with 3 locks and 3 hooks near it . above the hooks you have difrent numbers [2, 7, 3...] and different number on the keys hooks [1, 4, 5 ,9...]
This seems like a great alternative. Hope this works well for you. Thank you Eli, cheers!
I kind of love this one, because it has a distinctly... Nintendo 64 Adventure game vibe to it. I can't describe it better than that. But also a halloween-spooky aesthetic. I'd use this in a game that had a bit of camp to it!
Glad you enjoyed the video Allison! Hmmm... I never played N64, but now I'm intrigued on old puzzle ideas from that generation that may be hidden away on a cartridge. Hope you have been well. Cheers!
Ohhh this one is sooo delightful, love it. I'd throw in some names on the brains, Abbey Normal.. gotta go watch young frankenstein again now xD. Thanks so much adore it.
Awww yeah! Glad you liked the video! Enjoy that movie. Cheers!
I had no clue lol, which means I want to give it to players lol
lol. Fantastic! Do it!
@@WallyDM I'm dming this game on Sunday and I generally can't tell how I'm suppsed to get the players to understand the formula they are supposed to use without them just guessing and failing the puzzle
Great way to use environmental storytelling to keystone into the puzzle.
Thanks, my friend! Appreciate you watching the video. Cheers!
very interesting! figure it out the first two, without formula, not the third :p thinking outside the box.
lol. I did the same thing. I figured out the first two but then I had to peek at the answer for the third one. Cheers!
Is the hunt available in German? Wanted this book weeks ago. But in English it’s quite hard for me :D nice riddle tho
Unfortunately, no. It is currently only available in English.
@@WallyDM thanks for the information. Maby I will try it in English then. Thanks for all your riddles by the way. It’s a huge help!
I'm dming this in Sunday and I can't wrap my head around how they are suppsed to figure out the number sequence they are suppsed to do can you possibly explain it to me cause if I don't get it how will they
I left a reply on one of your other comments. Hope that helps!
I solved the 1st to differently (and before I saw the possible answers), but though I got the correct answers, I solved them incorrectly, which would probably mess me up for the last one. Though having the possible answers would help eventually.
2, 7, 3, 8, ?
2 > 3 is +1, 7 > 8 is +1, so 3 > ? is +1, the answer is 4
3, 12, 6, 24, ?
I got 12, but I looked at 3 > 6 is 2x, 12 > 24 is 2x, so 6 > ? is x2, therefore 12
Funny you mention this, I did the same exact thing when I first read the puzzle! Then, I got to the third one and I was like: "what the heck"? And had to look at the answer, lol.
@@WallyDM the puzzle leaves a bunch out not very clear on how they are suppsed to get to 4 12 and 50
I really don't like when puzzle don't have a reason for being there. Some guy is dying and takes notes instead of opening the door? Who numbered these body parts and why? who wrote down these number series and why?
maybe instead give hints to the name of the person who knew the code and a list of names corresponding to the numbers on the body parts...
good video though.
Thank you for watching Rischard, much appreciated. I like the brainstorming you did here. These are all valid questions... and ones for the GM who decides to run this idea to answer. My videos are about presenting an idea. I show the way I would do it (or the initial base of the idea) and the GM can either use it "as is" or "make it their own". To be honest, I've done many videos where I have recorded a puzzle and and folks in the comment section come up with a better way to utilize them. This is one of the things I love about this channel. I throw an idea out there and through the comment section we build some fun and interesting encounters together. :-)
I thought itd be a pattern, not addition and subtraction. Im another dead adventurer
lol, I did the same thing when I first seen the puzzle, so... I think it's a perfectly acceptable answer. :-)
I was only able to solve the Hand puzzle, by looking at it and figured the next number would be 4
