- Type: Logic puzzle
- Location: A dream realm
- Difficulty: Medium
Background:
You are a group of adventurers who have stumbled upon a strange dream portal while exploring a ancient temple. As you step through the portal, you find yourselves transported to a surreal dreamscape filled with strange and wondrous sights.
The Puzzle:
As you make your way through the dreamscape, you come across a large, glowing hourglass. The hourglass is filled with glowing sands that seem to shift and change color as they fall. There is a note on the hourglass that reads: “To pass through the door on the other side of the room, you must find a way to turn the hourglass over and reverse the flow of the sands. But be careful, for if you fail, you will be trapped in the dream forever.”
Solution:
To solve this puzzle, you must find a way to manipulate the hourglass so that the sands flow in the opposite direction. One way to do this is to use the concept of night and day. You can use the light from the sun or moon to cast shadows on the hourglass, causing the sands to shift and change direction. If the shadow falls on a sun symbol on the bottom of the hourglas that part starts moving up. If the shadow falls on the moon symbol on the other side of the hour glass that parts start moving up.
Alternatively, you could try using magical spells or abilities to manipulate the hourglass and reverse the flow of the sands.
If you successfully solve the puzzle and reverse the flow of the sands, the door on the other side of the room will unlock, allowing you to continue your journey through the dreamscape.
