I like puzzles which is one of the reasons I created the "Fantastic Fuselyph F'adventure" thread in the Experience section here on the Fuselage.
There is a brand new book out this week, "Secrets of the Alchemist Dar" by Michael Stadther. It is a story meant for adults to share with kids, and the artwork and story contains puzzles that lead to real-world treasures (100 rings worth a total of $2 Million). I'm not sure how good or difficult this is, but I know it is the sequel to a previous similar treasure hunt by the same guy. It has a limit of all 100 rings found or 3 years, whichever comes first, and is a "worldwide" hunt (although it is actually limited to a certain list of countries).
Anyway, I'm going to check it out and just wondered if anyone else here might be interested in sharing ideas about its puzzles. Does someone want to set up a private board for this?
EDIT: Oops, I am just now reading the official rules for this treasure hunt, and sharing puzzle solutions can make you ineligible, so I'm not planning on doing any collaborating, at least until I decide how serious I want to try to win one of the rings.
