− | A puzzle | + | A piece of paper with a puzzle on it is something players can get from the newspaper or a magazine. BANGs are meant to be more interactive, more similar to a short version of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Game_(treasure_hunt) The Game] than to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_Mystery_Hunt MIT Mystery Hunt]. So if you have a puzzle that involves a bunch of messages encoded using various Caesar's ciphers, you could put each message on a green strip of paper and put them all in a salad bowl, instead of just handing teams a printout. This give a nice visual appeal, as well as a clue as to what needs to be done to solve the puzzle. |
