Once you’ve acquired Forrest Fenn’s treasure, I recommend buying yourself a

nice new house, and any new house needs furniture. I have this catalog here, why
don’t you take break and look through it, think about what you might want to buy
with the treasure. Let’s say you have $7,000.00 to use from the treasure just on
furniture. Once you’ve glanced through it, I have some puzzles for you.

Puzzle 1: What is the least number of unique items you could buy to use exactly
your $7,000.00?

Puzzle 2: What is the highest number of unique items you could buy to use
exactly your $7,000.00?

 2 - Intricacies of
Independence
Chess is one of the oldest games that continues to be played to this day. Not only
that, but it is ripe for all sorts of mathematical study. Each chess piece has its own
method of moving that changes the strategy of the game, but what if instead of
just having one 1 queen, you had an infinite number? Use the boards below and
try to fill them with the specific piece in such a way that no piece could attack
another. After all, if you fall to bickering, you’ll never find your way to the
treasure.

Queen

A queen can
move as far
as she wants
in a straight
line, either
horizontal,
vertical or
diagonal.

King

A king can
move one
square in any
direction,
horizontal,
vertical or
diagonal.

Kommunication
“I believe all sorts of math can be used for communication, even my KenKen
puzzles! First you have to solve them, and then use the marked square find the
most important numbers. With that, you can unlock the cage to find the
coordinates you’re looking for.” Mr. Ken said with a clever smile.

A KenKen puzzle is a 4x4 grid that can be filled in using the numbers 1-4, but
each number can only be used once per row and column. Not only that, but there
are small cages marked by thick black lines, the numbers in each cage must equal
the number shown using the mathematical sign indicated.

 4 - Roving Rivers

There is a farmer who has turned to her favourite mathematicians in the hopes
they can use their problem solving skills to help her get across a river. She bought
some grain at the market and needs to take it home, but her boat can’t hold
enough wait to take more than one thing with her at a time. Her fox will eat her
goose if she leaves them alone, and her goose will eat the grain if she leaves it
alone.

Trip 1: a Fox, a Goose, and some Grain

The farmer adopted a dog in the hopes it would help her. The dog will prevent the
goose from eating the grain if they’re left alone, but now the dog will eat the fox
if she leaves them alone.

Trip 2: a Dog, a Fox, a Goose, and some Grain

Grateful for your help, the farmer shares that in her travels across rivers she heard
a rumour about the path to the treasure. Keep track of how many times you go
back and forth, but don’t forget to bring the animals.
 4 - Roving Rivers

Trip 1: a Fox, a Goose, and some Grain

Take goose across, leave goose, come back. Take fox/grain across, leave fox/grain
there, bring goose back. Take fox/grain across, leave fox/grain there, come back.
Take goose across. (7+2)

Trip 2: a Dog, a Fox, a Goose, and some Grain

Take fox across, come back. Take goose across, bring fox back. Take dog across,
come back. Take goose across, come back. Take fox across. (9+3)
 5 - Doubtful Deck

Even the most careful mathematician can sometimes lose track of their things. A
normal deck of cards has 52 cards, and yet you can tell that your deck isn’t quite
all there. You wrote yourself a note to remind yourself just how many are missing:

If I deal among four, three remain. If I deal among three, two remain. If I deal
among five, two remain.

Forrest heard about your dilemma and to help you stay organized, a very
important thing when treasure hunting, he reminds you that a deck of cards has
four suits. But how many cards are in each suit?

 6 - Crossmath Conundrum

Forrest Fenn thought long and hard about what puzzles to hide his treasures
behind. He considered the more common crossword, but felt it relied too much on
random trivia, so when he found out about the crossmath, he was positively
elated. In this puzzle, you half to fill in each column and row using the numbered

 7 - Traveler’s
Timetable
You’re planning a trip to visit all the great mathematicians in their hometowns.
You really want to see as many as possible, but you need to be back home in 1
day, or 24 hours.

Using the time zones indicated on each mathematicians painting, plan a trip that
allows you to visit the highest numbers of them in your allotted time. You have
access to a unique type of plane that can travel anywhere, but it always take 3
hours.

To help you, each country has its time in Universal Time Coordinated (UTC),
with either a plus or minus. This will provide a standard to compare them with
each other.

e.g. if you travel from Rio de Janero, Brazil (UTC -3) to Madagascar, Africa
(UTC +3), you would have used 9 hours (6 hour difference, plus 3 hour travel
time).

“Of course we know where the treasure is,” exclaimed the bees, “we travel
everywhere and we see everything! And we’d love to help you, but we’re having
a little trouble with our hive and until it’s fixed we won’t be able to offer any
assistance.”

To help the bees repair the hive you need to connect their unique hexagon shaped

Yahtzee (5 6-sided dice)

Double Dice Dilemma (3 pairs of dice, either 6-sided or 8-sided)
Golf (full deck of cards)
31 (full deck of cards, counters)
Guess Who (player sheets, counters)
Mastermind (player sheets, two different colour highlighters)
Bingo (2 sets of cards from 1-5, player sheets, counters)
Chess (Jodi and Gina’s boards)
 Yahtzee

To play Yahtzee you need 5 6-sided dice that all players will share and may share
a game board. On your turn you start by rolling all 5 dice. You can then choose to
reroll any or all of your dice up to 2 times. Your goal is to get the highest score
possible over the course of 13 rounds.

Once you’ve finished rolling you can add up your score and record it. Each row in
the game board has a different option for what you can score points for. The
Upper Section gives you points for having certain types of dice. For example, if
you roll three 5’s you could write down a score of 15 in the 5’s row. The Lower
Section gives points for having a specific arrangement across all 5 dice. If you
rolled three 5’s, one 2, and one 1, you could score in the Three of a Kind row, and
you would add up the total of all your dice to get a score of 18.

You get Yahtzee! If you roll five of the same type of dice. If you are unable or
don’t want to commit your score to a row, you can use the Chance row, using the
total of all 5 dice.

Each player takes turns rolling and writing their score until the end of 13 rounds,
at which point you title up your individual scores.
 Double Dice
Dilemma
To play Double Dice Dilemma you need a pair of dice and each player needs a
game board. You can use 6-sided dice, or 8-sided if you want to up the stakes. On
your turn you roll the pair of dice, and then must choose to either add, subtract,
multiply, or divide the two results. You can only do each action once per game,
and then have a FREE square in which you can do one of the actions again.

The goal is to get the highest total score after 5 rounds.

 Golf

To play Golf you’ll need one full deck of cards. Shuffle and deal 6 cards to each
player, but don’t look at the cards! Arrange them into a grid of 2 x 3 cards, and
each player may flip any two cards. Place the rest of the deck in the middle and
flip the top card over into a separate pile.

On your turn you start by drawing a card from either the face-up or face-down
deck. You can then replace one of your cards with that new card, or discard the
new card and flip over one of your face down cards.

When a player flips or replaces their last card so that all 6 are face up, then all
other players get one more turn before the game ends.

The goal is to have the lowest score at the end of the round, which is determined
by comparing the three pairs of cards. Add the value of the each pair together,
unless they have the same value (two 6’s or two Q’s), in which case they cancel
out to 0. An Ace has a value of 1, a King has a value of 0 and a Jack has a value
-2. Keep track of your score until the end of 9 rounds, lowest total score wins.
 31

To play 31 you need one full deck of cards and a set of counters. Deal each player
3 cards and give them 3 counters. Put the rest of the deck in the middle, and flip
one over into a separate face-up discard pile.

On their turn, a player draws a card from either the face-down deck or the face-up
discard pile. The player then discards a card from their hand. A player can also
choose to ‘knock’ (by knocking on the table) indicating they feel confident in
their hand. Once a player has knocked then all other players take one more turn.
Players then reveal their hands, and the player with the lowest score loses one of
their counters. If a player loses their last counter, they are eliminated.

The goal is to get as close a score to 31 in a single suit as possible. Aces are worth
11, and all face cards (J, Q, K) are worth 10. Three of kind is always equal to 30.5
points. If any player gets exactly 31 at any point, they may immediately reveal
their hand, causing all other players to lose one of their counters. The last
remaining player wins.
 Guess Who

To play Guess Who, each player needs one of the game boards. To start, each
player secretly chooses a number from their board.

Players then take turns asking each other yes/no questions trying to determine the
other players secret number. The first player to correctly guess the other player’s
number wins.

Some sample questions:

Is your number less than ___?

Is your number greater than ___?

Is your number even?

Is your number odd?

Does your number round up?

Does your number round down?

 Mastermind

To play Mastermind you will need a game board, you can play this game without
a board, but using one helps keep track. You must choose one player to be the
“mastermind” for the each round. The mastermind secretly creates a 4 digit
number, for example 1234. The other players then attempt to guess the 4 digit
number. For each guess, the mastermind tells the other players two things:

1. How many of the right numbers are there, regardless of placement.

2. How many of the right numbers are there, in the correct place.

The goal is find the secret number in as few guesses as possible.

As an easier alternative, you can use two different colour highlighters to indicate
the answers above.
 Bingo

To play bingo you will need 2 sets of cards containing aces-5s, some counters,
and each player will need a game board.

Players take turns drawing two cards from the top of the deck. There are two
versions you can play.

Graphing: mark a box at the coordinates the two cards make in either order. If you
drew a 2 and a 4 you could mark [4, 2] or [2, 4].

Mathematics: players can mark any number that could be made by adding,
subtracting, multiplying, or dividing the numbers drawn.

The goal of the game is to be the first to get 5 in a row, vertically, horizontally, or
diagonally.
