A yes/no riddle can be precisely the kind of thing for you if you have a bunch of people that are holed up together and have plenty of free time! Around a campfire or fireplace late in the night, the riddles are super enjoyable.
The fundamental principle is that one individual is always acquainted with the riddle’s solution. Until the group has come up with a solution, that individual first delivers the story and only addresses questions to be answered with a “yes” or “no” regarding the scenario.
