Many years ago, at school, the teacher gave us a riddle for thinking outside the box, solved the whole class in 30 minutes. I really liked this type of mystery, but new ones were very rare. And then I stumbled upon the wonderful book by Paul Sloan: “Puzzles with a secret to the development of non-standard thinking” (Tricky Lateral Thinking Puzzles)
on Ozone .
Situation puzzles or just
danyki (“yes / no” puzzles), these puzzles are well solved collectively.
I suggest you guess one of these puzzles!
Rules: the presenter describes a strange story, and the guesser must restore the whole situation. The presenter can only answer “Yes”, “No” or “Insignificantly”, which means that the questions should be relevant.
