so I’m working on a game where you go from room to room and complete puzzles, the puzzles get harder each room you go through and I need some puzzle ideas

Maybe some escape rooms, riddles, scavenger hunts that get increasingly difficult.

Puzzle 1
Theres 4 pillars, one pillar red, another blue, another green, and another yellow, and an orb in the middle, on one of the pillars a text reads:
“Three lie and one tells true.”
Each pillar has a pedestal for an orb to go on.
The red pillar says,
“I am not the liar.”
The blue pillar says,
“Green is the liar.”
The green pillar says,
“Yellow lies.”
The yellow pillar says.
“Blue tells the truth.”
The player will have to put the orb on the correct pedestal. the truthful pedestal is green.
The reason I got this puzzle so fast is because I used to make a game about puzzles lol
thinkin about more

Maybe add “explosive device” with a timer In the middle that will explode and eliminate the play when it reaches zero?

Trap name: Dead man’s switch
Quite simple: you switch the trap on manually and have 20 seconds to get to the Deactivation zone. (time can be extended or cut short)
