Treasure Quest

Treasure Quest - A one-person logic game with 40 challenges

Help the treasure hunter escape with the gold as you play this challenging treasure quest brainteaser. There are 40 challenge cards which graduate in difficulty from beginner to intermediate to advanced to expert. Each card shows how to set up the grid for a new game and the front and the solution on the back.

LEFT - Challenge.      RIGHT - Solution

There are four kinds of tokens that may be used in the set-up including stationary blockers, arrow, gold mask, and hero.

To play:

1. Choose a challenge card and set up the grid. Slide the opening gate to the correct position.
2. Moving around the board, the hero pushes movable obstacle token aside to clear a path to push the gold mask(s) off the grid. 
3. Push the gold mask(s) through the opening gate to win.

Sounds simplistic, but the more obstacles there are the more you will need to think about strategy, and the more moves it will take to win.

Try this:

• Make a game out of just setting up the grids, following the pattern cards, if the puzzles will be too difficult to complete.
• Show the first couple of moves to help the player get started.
• Work backwards. Do all but the last move, then do all but the last two moves, then do all but the last three moves, etc.
• Complete a challenge as the individual looks on. Talk out loud as you problem solve to help the person learn. Then ask him to complete the same challenge.
• Work on visual discrimination, spatial relations, figure ground, manual dexterity, logic, problem solving, process skills, executive functioning skills, play and leisure exploration and participation
