This is a handout for a riddle I made for my gaming group two years ago. The characters found a construct of four stone disc stacked upon each other. A symbol was engraved on each disc and the discs could be turned independently not unlike the lock of an old safe. The numbers 1 to 7 were engraved around the discs with an equation of symbols beneath.
Each symbol represents a number and in order to solve the riddle the players had to determine which symbol stands for a certain number. This had to be done by solving the equation and by turning the discs in such a way that the symbol on each disc points to the number it represents.
Example: If the star would stand for the number 3 the red disc must be turned so that the star points to 'III'.
The riddle was solved within 15 minutes, if I remember correctly. The solution and a .jpg for download can be found here (Miscellaneous).
