How can I create Riddles online?
To create your Riddle, simply provide a title to Ray, your AI riddle generator. Ray will create a riddle, its solution, and two hints about the subject you specify. You can review and make any changes before publishing. Ray can also create your game from a piece of text.
Alternatively, if you prefer to create the game manually, you can skip Ray and provide the custom riddle, the solution and the hints yourself.
How does the riddle maker present the enigma and its solution?
Players see an empty box for each letter of the solution, and they must fill them in correctly considering the title or the optional statement, which you can use to pose the riddle. The statement can have text, image, audio, video, or a combination of them.
If you've added hints, have a button they can use to "buy" them, in exchange for receiving fewer points for finding the solution. The button indicates the type of hint they can request and how many points it costs to request it.
What types of hints can I give?
Your players can "buy" three different types of hints, in addition to the statement they will see from the beginning.
One type of hint is the main image, crucial for solving the riddle. The image will be blurred with an effect, and as the player requests hints, this effect will gradually disappear until it is displayed clearly. If you want the image to be clearly displayed from the beginning, deactivate the 'Image hints' option.
Another type is Information hints. They are like the statement (text and/or multimedia), but in this case, the player does not see them from the start but requests them.
Finally, if 'Letter hints' is activated, the player can ask for help in revealing letters of the solution.
All three types of hints can coexist in the same game, accompanied or not by the statement. Before requesting each hint, players can see how many points it will cost them.
Do they lose points if they make a mistake with the solution?
No. When they fill in the boxes, the game automatically checks if the solution is correct. If it's not, it indicates the error and clears the letters, but they don't lose points. They only lose points by "buying" hints.
Can I create a Riddle game with two or more riddles?
Yes, you can create a Riddle game with multiple riddles by clicking on the 'Add Riddle' button. This way you can create themed games. For example, one where they guess different jungle animals.
Can I set a time limit?
Yes! You can enable a time limit for each screen in the 'Options' tab of the editor.
Can I set a limited number of lives?
Yes, you can enable and choose a limited number of lives in the 'Options' tab of the editor. Players will lose a life each time they give a wrong answer.
