So I try not to make them too challenging. The joy is when a player goes, "Oh, I know how to solve this."Here's the first one:This Door Is ShutThe characters encounter a large rectangle carved into a flat stone surface. Words are etched into the stone, as well as a circle.[ATTACH=full]275372[/ATTACH]The riddle reads:In the morning I am a waking giantI stretch my arms and legs.By noon I am a frightened childBeneath your feet I beg.At dusk I stretch out hungrilyAt night I swallow the land.This door is shut and shall not openBut by the touch of my hand.The answer to the riddle is:[spoiler]A shadow. To open the door, the characters must make the shadow of their hand "turn" the doorknob. The door magically yawns open, revealing whatever is behind![/spoiler]</blockquote>
