So as you know if you’ve ever played my game, Cryptic I’m a huge fan of riddles. Starting today, I think it would be fun to start throwing some of them up on the site! I’ll try to get one a day, but I can’t promise anything. This one is a classic (and was also recently featured on the AGS forums…) but it’s a good one.
If within a week nobody has commented with the correct answer, I’ll post it.
A young man is traveling the country side, looking for the path to town, when he comes to a fork in the road. At this fork there is only a sign, and an old man standing next to it.
The sign reads:
“One of these paths leads to civilization, while one leads into a labyrinth from which none have managed to escape. This man is the gatekeeper. He only allows those who are worthy to know for certain which path to take. Every other day, he lies, and he tells the truth on the rest of the days. You may only ask him one question.”
There is a question he can ask in order to know which path is correct. What is it?
