So I’m running a one shot for the holiday, and I’m thinking it’s going to be a classic dungeon crawl. I’ve thought of the BBEG (a weakened lich), and the party is level 11. What puzzles can you wonderful people think of that I could use?
Halloween themed puzzles? Hmmm, I'm not great a puzzles but maybe these can get your mind working better than mine. Level 11 characters can do a lot. So puzzles have to be either completely mental, very hard to bypass, or you just accept that they can beat some easily with the right spells as part of the fun. There's not much time in a one-shot anyway for difficult ones.
A corn maze that shifts and moves them to other areas when they try to just charge through.
A door that says it needs a skeleton key. The trick is finding the right skeleton.
A cauldron they have to mix a potion in with riddles for clues to the ingredients.
A mirror that requires them to disguise themselves as other people to walk through the secret door in it. Maybe someone they see in an old painting on the wall. Like the lich in its long past human days.
A guardian monster that requires bribing with treats.
