Can't do puzzles, my players can't even complete easy sudokus

No one ever laughs at my Goofus and Gallant references.

I love puzzles and riddles in DnD. Especially easy ones that take forever.

My friend ran a game recently where the final boss ended up being an open door. Good times.

Saw the title and the image thumbnail and thought, "Man, Colin Hay isn't looking so good these days.

I love giving my players puzzles and riddles, but I'm not great at coming up with them. They'll make perfect sense to me in my notes and then when I trying to describe them I realize important bits aren't clear.

Can you spot the difference?

Reminded of an accident on the set of Blade. Wesley Snipes sets a vampire ablaze, and the dude takes a flying leap out a window. The stuntman broke his jaw. So they have to take this guy to the hospital, in agony and unable to speak... while he's in full-body makeup for third-degree burns. It's such a surreal predicament that I'm surprised it has not itself shown up in another movie.
