What if the player trapped in the jar had copper pieces with them? Would it count since they are technically IN the jar? I can easily imagine my players overthinking this one HAHAHAHA.
lol! Oh my goodness, I never contemplated that scenario. What a great question. I'm not sure, but I think I'd have to listen to the player's reasoning. If they came up with 100 + Trapped PCs copper, I'd give it to them. You are right though, I can see players doing this. lol.
Congratulations on 100 videos and another great puzzle! I love the twist regarding how the coins need to be spent.
Thank you Mason! I appreciate your continued support. Glad you liked the twist at the end. :-) On to the next 100 puzzle videos!
I like this, no physical map is needed, and all can be done verbally. Congrats on your 100th video.
Thank you, my friend. :-)
Ooo this is a fun one I like this a lot! Congrats on 100 videos wally here's to 100 more!
Thank you Aceman! On to the next......... 100 videos. lol. Cheers!
A wrong guess should increase the amount of copper in the jar and change the denominations on the eyes
Hey Wally, great video as always! This is the only one I've ever figured out right away. As a long time fan of your channel. This is actually episode #101. You have two #7's then the next video is #8.
Thanks Wally you have a wonderful day!
Hey there Matt! Hope you are doing good, my friend. I'm glad you liked the puzzle. I have already written this one and it will be in my next book as well.
Also, thank you for the reminder on the thumbnails. Puzzle #6 has a thumbnail that says 7. Or perhaps... its a clue to a 4th wall puzzle? Haha, cheers, buddy!
First! Also congrats on 100 puzzles. 💯
Knowing my group, they'll try to attack the apperation and/destroy the statue/s.
That would be hilarious! I would love to see the first player's face when their character is sucked into the jar of pennies, lol. Thank you for the support Dave, I appreciate it. On to the next!
What a great Puzzle! Subscribed!
Hooray! Thank you. Welcome to the channel. :-)
Way to go to 100. IF they actually would go thru with giving all the platinum to the needy, I would give them an mild urge to return the jar. If they return there will be 100 pouches with various sizes and various amounts of coins/gems in them containing 200-300gp value. each character may only choose 1 and only those characters that were in the vault originally may choose. If they choose not to go, the jar will disappear after 100 hours.
I like this idea, absolutely. I think seeing this puzzle all the way through to giving away the platinum is well worth the reward. I would probably give powerful magic items to my players if they played through the scenario. Thank you, Craig. On to the next...... 100 videos. Haha!
Hey Wally!
Congrats on Puzzle #100 and what a good one it was!
I loved the puzzle and the fact that there is a nice twist in the end about what they do with the coins...I would probably be a good DM and just give my players the ability to turn to gold anything they touch ;)
Also, I noticed that the Gold, Silver and Cooper coins used have your face! Nice little detail lol
Also...Thank you for the memorable and iconic Easter egg in the end! It was the perfect way to end puzzle #100!
The road to 200 starts now! On to the next!
Hello, my friend. I'm glad that you liked the way this came out. I found the old introduction screen and the image of brown hooded wally on an old hard drive. Can't believe I still had it! lol. Thank you for the idea, it would have been a missed opportunity to not include those. And, ah yes, the coins. I created those for a Round Table - Does D&D need Copper pieces thumbnail. So, it was cool to use them again. I've had some great comments on those.
Glad you liked the puzzle. And 200? Sure thing, lol. One video at a time. Thank you for being on this journey with me..... On to the next!
Your shirt gives me a chuckle!
lol. One of my favorites, for sure. Cheers!
Question; what happens if all the party members are obstinate and end up inside the jar together? TPK seems a bit extreme/anticlimactic.
I would have a combat readied in case that happens. Perhaps the apperation with animate objects casted and uses the coins. It in turn will dodge and misty step around (at least against lower levels, go full caster if higher). Once the party defeats it, they break free with the jar, statues, and apperation gone without a trace.
Hi Michael, oh, absolutely. I would not want any puzzle to ever turn into a TPK. I would recommend that the "extradimensional space" take the characters to a different plane of existence. Perhaps a world where coins are plentiful? Perhaps the Nine Hells? Regardless, give them a session or two to fight their way home with plenty of combat options and exploration. The puzzle, in my mind, is something set up by a minor deity, so perhaps the deity is testing them and continues to do so? Hope this helps!
Great ideas here Dave, for sure. If a party is intent on smashing things, give them something to smash. 100%.
I have watched all 100. Congrats on making it to 100.
Thank you Janelle. Now... I need to work on the next 100, lol.
100 CP
Well done!
Congratulations on the big 100, glad to see the brown hood made it in! This puzzle seems very versatile to me, you could place this in any dungeon as a small sidetrack, or play it as the climax of a heist. I like it!
Thank you, Prippy! I knew I wanted to do something cool with the number 100, and I'm glad that everyone is enjoying it. :-) Also, yep, the old brown hood made it. I couldn't believe that I still had the old template I used for the intro on my very first puzzle video. The nostalgia factor hit me hard watching the end credits, for sure. Great to have you with me on this journey, friend. Cheers!
Very cool puzzle
I need to use this one for sure
Thank you Rivers, glad you liked it!
I have tried to watch all of them, but I've probably missed some in all that time. I lost track of the numbers when they stopped showing the thumbnail. Congrats on having a whole "centuria" of puzzle-videos uploaded to throw at players!
Thank you David! And, for those finding my channel, watching all 100 is a daunting task. Needless to say, some of the older ones are really drawn out and could definitely benefit from a new video, reboot or remake. I don't remember why I stopped including the numbers on the thumbnails. I think I read somewhere that having episode numbers decreased clickability on thumbnails. But, who knows. Anyways, thank you for being a subscriber to the channel. I appreciate you being here. Cheers!
@@WallyDM I could see that numbers decrease viewing; sort of implies some sort of continuity in the content. And they're all stand-alone rather than episodes, and since some are more "trap-y" and some are more "puzzle-y" and some more "riddle-y", makes sense to not keep a rolling count. :-)
If I was a player and this replaced what I expected to be a treasure hoard, I'd be pretty disappointed, even with a "correct" answer. It's a cool puzzle for a different context though.
As a player, I get that, absolutely. For me as a DM, if the players ride out the puzzle all the way through the "correct" answer, this would lead them to an equally valuable reward. Let's say they help a village. I'd then have the village elder approach them with magic items letting them know that they have had these for centuries and the prophecy foretold such kindness and to give these items to those that helped in this way.
But yeah, as with all of my puzzles they are simply a foundation for the DM to build on. I love seeing how folks would alter these ideas to make them fit to their games and their players style.
Thank you @dirtywhitellama, for the conversation. :-) Cheers!
I can dig some Wally DM coins.
Awesome, I'm glad that noticed the face on the coins! :-)
Congrats on 100! I recently grabbed your first volume, and can't wait to start implementing some more devious bits on my nerds. (And after another recent video of yours I grabbed Esper's book as well!) Can't wait to see what the next one has in store!
And because I always have to look for the thing now...
I'm not 100% sure, but was Cubby on the top right behind that coin jar as you rolled it across the screen?
Oh nice, thank you for picking up my Journal of Puzzle Encounters book, Tom (and Esper's too). I'm curious to know which puzzle from the book that you (and your players) enjoyed the most.
I can't wait to share book 2 with everyone along with the Puzzles/Traps that will be in the Quintessential Guide to Monster Encounters. I have my work cut out for me, for sure. lol.
And, nope, the Owlbear cub is closer to the front of the video, right after the Monster Encounter promo. You had the location correct, but if you blink, you'll miss him. He's very well hidden this time, lol.
Cheers!
I didn't see the second "n" there and thought this was gonna be a very different kind of video XD
lmao. That's hilarious! Glad I was cautious with my spelling. 😉 Cheers!
the greatest reward will be that if the party truley donates all 100 platinum coins
they are blessed to forever receive twice the amount of any coins or gems they find or trade
Greatest reward indeed. I would love to see this scenario play out and reward them for the good, um. karma. Cheers, and thank you for watching my video! :-)
That's a great wholesome trap. I'm going to have to go back and start watching all your other ones. Thank you for posting this
Glad you enjoyed the idea JC. Thank you so much and... welcome to my channel. It's great to have you here. :-)
Whoa, I recognize those plastic bricks from the Crossbows & Catapults game from the 1980s! I had that same game myself and likewise kept them to use as terrain after all these years!
Haha, yep! Crossbows & Catapults was my favorite growing up in the 80s AND my kids favorite growing up in the 2000s. Those blocks have seen a lot of battles. Also, did you see that there is a Kickstarter for a NEW version of the game? I might need to check that out. Thank you for watching. Cheers!
@@WallyDM I had not, but that's interesting. Also thanks for all these puzzles, I'm running a party through Baba Yaga's Hut and I've been using them for some of the mental challenges. Very helpful!
Congratulations on 100! I’m actually surprised, feel like its been a few hundred. 😂
It really does, lol. Well... a few trap videos here and there definitely helps. Thank you David!
Those are some of the rarest coins ever on the eyes, I recognize the head on those, they must be worth a fortune!
Fun, like the twists for giving to poor, always fun to throw things like that at players and realize they are cursed by something.
I need to get those coins made... haha, or maybe a crypto instead? lmao. Thank you, for the support, my friend. Glad you liked the puzzle. Hope we get to hang out again soon. Cheers!
The written version of the puzzle link takes you to way different puzzle
Thank you for catching this! I copy+pasted the links from the Hag's Tea puzzle and failed to remove that particular link. Unfortunately, I do not have a written version of the Pennies in a Jar puzzle... yet. Thank you for watching. Cheers!
Anyone else think that this said penis in a jar? No hate to the video im just stupid
lol, I can see where you got that. Haha!
It's apparition with an "i". "Apperation is not a word.
