Love it. I will definitely be using this one.
There are a couple of easy ways to remix this puzzle:
It doesn't matter what the colors/gems/fruits/herbs/symbols are. As long as the clues are all present, it's fundamentally still the same puzzle.
To expand the scope of the puzzle all over the dungeon, the clues could be anywhere, and not all together.
Riddles/phrases can be incorporated into the clues. I can see this being particularly difficult if you swapped out colors for nature themes like weather/moon phases/plants/trees/leaves, etc.
Something like "The crescent moon is always above the oak tree" would confound players to no end if they found the clue before the puzzle in some druid grove somewhere.
To be really mean, hand your players a rubix cube and make them solve it to the correct configuration to unlock some awesome treasure.
I really like that nature theme and scattering clues to make a bit more difficult/involved, great ideas! And yep, that Rubik's is mean, lol. I was never able to solve the cube without my cheat-book, lol.
Like the herbs/veggies as alt for color blind.
The go to I always like is combining shapes with color, as it is 2 points of reference. So you can use 3 shapes, since 9 slots, Triangle, Circle, Square, one each where they are solid, dotted and outlined.
Fun logic puzzle, could see people struggling with it for a bit.
Ah, I always forget the shapes idea. Great point! Also, glad you liked the vegetable idea. I really dig this as a kitchen/recipe box puzzle. Cheers, my friend!
If you feel like taking a step up with the tile puzzle, you can make the room incredibly dark, this way only characters that DONT have dark vision can shine given that the ones that do only see in shades of gray. This can always be mitigated by just using a torch, but bringing a spotlight to characters that usually fall behind in dark enviroments
I think the implication is that creatures without Darkvision don’t see any color but black? Not really useful for a color puzzle?
Ah, yes, I see where you are going with this. I love throwing color puzzles, clues, or messages at parties that rely on darkvision. They always forget that lighting a torch from time-to-time might reveal some interesting facts. Thank you for watching, cheers!
This is such a versatile puzzle and should allow players to collaborate (or not) as the situation requires. My ten year old really enjoyed solving it as well.
I was thinking if you wanted to draw it out, you could scatter the clues, or somehow allow only certain characters (via languages or other means) to learn certain clues, forcing the player collaboration. Another interesting potential factor is if you present this on a horizontal surface, like the floor or a chest, is which direction maps to "above" or "left". Maybe they need to face the grid from the side, or you could always switch the clues to use cardinal directions "north" or "west".
Thank you, my friend! Yep, definitely a fun one. And great point about putting this on a horizontal surface. I like the idea of using cardinal directions as opposed to left-right.
I might add a layer to this where it is the rooms of the building/dungeon themselves that are color codes rather than tiles. and the players have to arrange the rooms like one of those 3x3/4x4 sliding tile puzzles
The entire room is the color? That sounds fun! If you do that, be sure to let me know how it goes. Neat-o idea. Cheers!
Yeah, i'm gonna use that one in my next session.
Fantastic! Lemme know how it goes. Cheers!
I love this kind of puzzle sudoku !
Glad you enjoyed the video. These are always fun, for sure. Cheers!
A logic puzzle like this is exactly the thing that would get my group thinking.
Gonna have to homebrew something like this, thanks for the video
Hooray! Hope this works well for you. Cheers!
I love this type of puzzle that in FoundryVTT I can have the players actually take a hands-on approach.
lol, yep. Should slide right into foundry with no problem whatsoever. THank you, my friend. Cheers!
Fun video. Like the change of colors with the ingredients, it gives the puzzle a lot of…flavor.
Haha, I see what you did there Mr. Mike. Well played. ;-)
Wally, grats on the algorithm success, and a thank you to DM Micycle for the great puzzle idea!
Thank you, friend. And THANK YOU, again, and again, and again, for hosting a fantastic puzzle contest. Cheers!
ngl, if you have physical tiles you can play with its easier than his solution - you just pair up the tiles that pair together (all the ones that say above or below) then make little colour blocks using those and just shuffle them around as you fill in the other option. Still a great puzzle!
Oh, right on! That makes sense. Leave it to me to solve the puzzle the hard way, lol. Great idea, thank you. :-) Cheers!
Yes it took me around 30s to do it all in my mind... maybe it could be more interesting if you use a 4x4 grid or different grid shapes?
The problem is sometimes my players are experts in logic, and othertimes they're like idiots trying to row a boat in an open field, or jumping off roofs, or...
@@jerryjiles1837 30 seconds? That's impressive! It took me about 5 minutes, but, truth be told, I'm not too good at these type of puzzles.
BTW... I love the "rowing a boat in an open field" reference. I may need to use that, lol.
But, if players did struggle, I would probably allow an intelligence check for their character and then supply a clue by placing one of the color tiles in its correct position.
Thank you for the feedback, cheers!
@WallyDM it's good to see the hard way still, since it can help people see HOW to solve puzzles too which imo is just as fun as the puzzles themselves. And I definitely feel that comment about rowing a boat in an open field - sometimes the players are sharp as razors, and sometimes they're thick as a board!
@@13shoshana That's a great point. Kinda like showing your work on your algebra assignment. And honestly, I really enjoyed working through this one. :-)
And... I have to lol at "Thick as a Board", too. Haha!. Thank you. Cheers!
Cool puzzle
I would use it as is for a door but as a key pad
Me too, I definitely like that idea. Thanks Rivers!
Cool indeed...
I like the idea of a forgetful wizard who's fed up of triggering the trap and leaves the note on a scrap of paper in his journal.
Maybe with the line, _"blooming skeletons!!!"_ at the top, to foreshadow the penalty.
Or maybe the wizard's colour blind and there's two tiles you have to guess 😅
Haha, yep. All wizards are forgetful, therefore, its always wise to search for their journal, lol. Maybe the skeletons have it? I dunno, :-) Cheers!
Thanks Wally. I could not do it.
Glad to see you are at least practicing your puzzle skills ahead of Thursday's game, lol. Thanks, buddy.
Really good logic puzzle! This one doesnt feel as straight forward as some logic puzzles do which is good cause sometimes my players figure these things out in 30 seconds. Im running a oneshot in the shadowfell and one of my players is colorblind so maybe i use a variation of the vegetable one
I'm definitely going to use this sometime soon in my current campaign
Hooray! Also... great to see you buddy, hope you are well. ;-)
Colour version of sodoku
Ah, yes, I think you're be right!
My group would give the puzzle a hard pass. Something about, "We are here to have fun, not do your programming logic homework."
Seriously, I like this idea. However, it is not for the group I used to have.
Haha, I think there are a lot of groups like that for sure. Puzzles aren't for everyone, and that is totally ok. :-) Glad you liked the idea @jaybakata5566 , thank you. Cheers!
This is a reskinned sudoku puzzle.
Hmmm, you might be right, I'm not sure. It's been quite a few years since I've tried an actual soduku puzzle. Thank you for watching, cheers!
