I need a brain teaser for D&D?

[jorfan3]

Something like "Two guys are guarding two doors. One leads to freedom, one leads to death. One man always tells the truth, one always lies. Choose the correct door."

Not THAT brainteaser, because everyone knows it. But a brainteaser I could incorporate into D&D that will require my players to talk and think.

Three broke witches are looking at a unicorn that's for sale for $120.

Maddie: If we pooled all our salaries together me and Hayley could buy it in three months!

Olga: Well, Hayley and I could buy it in two months...

Hayley: Hah, it would take the two of you six months if you two were to buy it together.

All salaries are recived monthly. What's Maddie's salary?

[jorfan3]

I have no idea

[Sasahara]

0. Thats the joke, she is cheating the others. For the facts to add up, Maggie earns $0, Olga earns $20 and Hayley earns $40.
(0+40) x 3 = 120
(20+40) x 2 = 120
(0+20) x 6 = 120

[jorfan3]

Oh okay. Not exactly what I'm looking for, but I appreciate your input!

[Still-alive]

you mean like riddles?

Here's a few:

1. "You look at me, I look back, your right hand raises, I my left. You speak, but I in vain."

2. "It has towns, but no houses. Forests, but no trees. Rivers, but no fish."

3. "I've no eyes, bout once did see, thoughts had I, but now I'm white, and
empty."

[jorfan3]

These are more down the vain I want. Something trolls could say. What are the answers?

[Still-alive]

these are from an old video game on the NES called shadowgate which was inspired by D&D by the way. you should try that game out if you have the chance

answers:
1. Mirror
2. Map
3. Skull

[jorfan3]

These are perfect!

[jorfan3]

Thank you!

A ball and a bat together cost $1.10. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

[jorfan3]

.10?

[AviatorTom]

5 cents... bat costs $1.05

[jorfan3]

Not exactly the style I'm going for, but thanks for your input! I'm looking more so for brain teaser, not math.

[slatyb]

Meaning logical, not numerical? Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice loved together. Bob and Carol went to the movies. When they came home, they found Alice dead in a puddle of water. Bob was asleep on the floor. What happened?

[jorfan3]

Hm. Challenging. An earthquake happened, they both got knocked out. Alice drowned in a puddle of water asleep. Bob just got knocked out?

[slatyb]

Close but simpler.

[jorfan3]

I give up!

[slatyb]

You have made a common but incorrect assumption. Also Bob and Carol would have known that there was an earthquake.

[jorfan3]

Ohhh

[jorfan3]

What's the answer

[AviatorTom]

I am not your mother but you are my son. Who am I?

[jorfan3]

Myself?

[slatyb]

My father?

[jorfan3]

@slatyb Oh DUH! I feel so silly! hahaha!

[Andres77]

Which child was your Mother’s favorite?

[jorfan3]

I think I've heard that one, but tell me. Is the answer I?

[Andres77]

Actually I was drunk a few hours ago and I don’t even remember writing that. My apologies

[jorfan3]

ROFLMAO It's fine!
