- Type: Logic puzzle
- Location: A palace
- Difficulty: Medium
Background:
You are a group of adventurers who have been hired to fix the fountain in a grand palace. To succeed, you must navigate a series of puzzles.
The Puzzle:
As you make your way through the palace, you come across a beautiful fountain in a courtyard. Jets of water should be springing from one part of the fountain to the next. But some aren’t working, others are missing their target wasting water, and with all that water wasted some just aren’t getting enough to make this wonderful fountain work.
Solution:
To solve this puzzle, you must use your knowledge of water and its properties to determine the correct sequence of patterns needed to keep the jets of water cirularing. One possible solution is to observe the patterns of the water as it flows from the fountain and try to recreate them by manipulating the fountain’s controls. This might involve adjusting the flow rate or direction of the water, or using different combinations of nozzles and jets.
Once you have successfully recreated the correct sequence of patterns, the fountain is fixed and the owner offers a generous reward.
