Inspired from a mission in Watch_Dogs Legion, this is a classic trap that many RPGs used.

Some of my previous posts show how one can use Google sheets as standalone puzzles for role-playing games. This article takes things a step further by involving a progression of puzzles in order to get past a hurdle. The primary puzzle is based on Set, but the overarching puzzle involves an orchestration of other hurdles.

Ever wanted to build a poor man's dialogue tree into a Google sheet? Well you came to the right place. This post shows how to do exactly that and then uses it as a quick little (and hopefully entertaining) puzzle. 

A floor with numbered tiles. Some of them are trapped and others are not. The numbers on them determine which ones are which.

This is a method to randomly generate a branching dungeon graph that can be used to emulate the traditional lock-and-key style of dungeon that is prominent in the Legend of Zelda series of games. It is modified from my previous Zelda-style Dungeon Generator, to provide a more traditional dungeon crawl experience.

'One looks down on the Abyss, the others delve deep where no Light is. Matching the forms and symbols of yore, the truth shall rise and lead you out of the doors'

- Cyclopean Inscriptions on the Well

An Escape Challenge consisting of a puzzle room and arena. Meant to demonstrate that fact that brains are required for combat as well as brawn. Best used on players who just use force to solve everything.

An ancient tomb set beneath a small hill-town holds a dark secret...

This is a method to randomly generate a branching dungeon graph that can be used to emulate the traditional lock-and-key style of dungeon that is prominent in the Legend of Zelda series of games.

A maze in which there are clues that reveal the way through provided that you know how to perceive, interpret, and use them.

Step on the floor tiles in the correct order to proceed.

Ding Ziu translates to 'Substitute Criminal'

A mechanical shrinking trap room. Complete the challenges before you get crushed. The name for this room is the same as the movie whose plot I got this whole idea from.

Sometimes a door is the best security system.

Sometimes the owner of a dungeon doesn't want to kill its intruders, just detain and embarrass them a bit.

A series of traps and puzzles that are sure to cause pause in your players without killing them..... maybe.

'This is a clean room environment. So we will have to pass through decontamination before we can enter.' Researcher Gorgron Rogbutt, an Orc.

A very difficult puzzle which requires knowledge in simple leet speak to solve. It might take a while to figure out as you have to rearrange letters and numbers to form a sentence.

A puzzle that requires knowledge of the PGP Word List to complete. It is impossible without knowing this information. VERY COMPLEX! NOT FOR BEGINNERS!

This is a system of classification that admittedly I shamelessly copied from TES (The Elder Scrolls). It sorts traps and puzzles into four categories known in TES as The Four Tests. Examples of each that I made myself are included.

This consists of a trap and encounter as the puzzle. There will be ten PCs for this example but this will work with any even number of PCs.
