Add Puzzles

Use Case: Add Puzzles to Attraction

Puzzles are the meat of the game, but they spoil over time. Assuring we've got fresh meat makes the game.

For a given attraction, the puzzles may not be located exactly where the attraction is, but instead, nearby enough that seekers don't feel like they're leaving the location to solve the puzzle and unlock the clue.

Value goes up for a puzzle that
a) depends on your physical presence
b) is semi-permanent
c) might be "hidden in plain view"

It is possible for attractions to
a) share puzzles if they are close enough
b) have more than one puzzle (to choose from as part of setting up courses)

When editing an attraction, there may be zero, one or more puzzles, but it is called a Place until it has at least one puzzle. The puzzle makes it Course Worthy.

To solve the puzzle and unlock the clue, the seeker will choose one of 2-4 multiple choice answers.
