Hello everyone,

I’ve recently developed a huge interest in puzzles and brain teasers, especially the kind that really make you think. I’m looking for some of the most mind-bending examples out there.

Specifically, I’d love a collection of hard riddles with answers that challenge logic, lateral thinking, and problem-solving skills. Bonus points if they are tricky enough to stump even experienced solvers!

If you have any favorites or can recommend resources, please share them. I’m eager to test my wits and see how many I can actually solve.

thanks in advance for any help

If you are interested in trying out some actual games, I have some to recommend:

- Stephen's Sausage Roll
- The Witness
- Baba is You
- A Monster's Expedition
- Blue Prince
- The Talos Principle
- Centum
- Opus Magnum
- Paquerette Down the Bunburrows
- Isles of Sea and Sky
- Infinifactory

I could keep going, but there's enough up there to keep you entertained for months. These are all high quality stuff, I have put in bold which ones are my favorites. Some are 3D games, so they might not work properly if you don't have a proper graphics card. Most others should be easy enough to run (Steam also has a very generous refund policy, so you can always try them and return the game if you don't like it/doesn't work in your machine).

 

Hi @yomav, here's a great book:

Watch Cats Does Countdown. It's good shit, and with a time limit!

 

See if you can grab this show. We play along as a family and do fairly well.
