Puzzle thread
I figured this place could use a puzzle thread seeing that adventure games contain many puzzles. I'll get this started (I've got work now but will return in roughly 6 hours to resolve actions. I've also got some riddles to post too. 
)
I gave this puzzle to a group I've been DM'ing. The people on the forum might like this one.
You find yourself in a small room. The voice of a small child fills the room
"There is one way out
But you can't get the key
The treasue is for you but the real fun is for me"

What does man love more than life,
hate more than death or mortal strife;
That which contented men desire,
the poor have, the rich require;
The miser spends, the spendthrift saves,
and all men carry to their graves?
#2
The man who made it didn't need it.
The man who bought it didn't use it.
The man who used it didn't want it.
#3
He who makes it does not keep it.
He who takes it does not know it.
He who knows it does not want it.
He who gathers it must destroy it.
What is it?
that would have been too simple
Pick up the chest ans smash it into the glass?
Pick up the marble statue and smash it into the glass?
It seems that I enjoy smashing glass.
think of it like an adventure game. You actually have to do things to solve it instead os saying what you would have to do in theory =P
Is it designed to be a sort of "interactive puzzle", where we ask or try things and you give a response of some sort?
> OPEN CHEST
> Check under the bed?
You open the chest and there is a screw driver and hammer inside
OK. Well, I try to unscrew the case to retrieve the key. Failing that, I attempt to use to use them as a hammer and chisel on: The door lock, the case, and the hand holding the axe.
you try and get the axe free with the hammer and screwdriver. (not quite what I had in mind but sure why not)
After some hard work you manage to get the axe free.
Then check the shattered remains...
When you try and stand on the chair with the cushions a voice says
Mommy says no standing on the cushions
and you feel a force push you off
*that mark is the signature of the artist
(Can you tell I like destroying things yet?)
Check under the pillow / mattress of the bed?
If it won't open normally then use the hammer/chisel.
you manage to open the oyster using the hammer and screw driver. Inside is a black pearl
Did anyone try just opening the door?
The image says "A locked door through which you entered", so I guess that means you can't. But don't think anyone has actually suggested trying it yet!?
Ok then.....err......check the statue of the snake charmer for somewhere to put the pearl?
There, I solved it

You use the hammer to pry off the nails off the carpet you now have some nails.
Anyway here is what to do next. Use the nails from the carpet on the bed to make a bed of nails. Put the snake charmer on the bed of nails to activate the snake charmer who plays the flute to make the carpet rise. Then when you can use the axe on the rope to cut down the chandelier that everyone wanted to get to. Search the remains of broken glass and discover a diamond. Use the diamond on the case to cut out the key. Exit room.
Alternate solution to the axe. Use the oil from the lamp to loosen the axe.
