The Riddle Forge

Read full description

Step into a world where riddles talk back. RiddleForge is a brain-teasing puzzle game that transforms classic riddles into living conversations. Instead of choosing from rigid multiple-choice answers, you think out loud, explore ideas, and interact with a mysterious riddle master who responds intelligently to your reasoning. Powered by a large language model (LLM), RiddleForge understands flexible answers, offers dynamic hints, and reacts naturally, making every puzzle feel like a dialogue rather than a test.
