Ryan Veeder<p>There almost wasn't an imPROMPTu <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> prompt in the month of June but then a hero stepped in and decided that the prompt was FALL. So the puzzle is: dropquotes <a href="https://rcveeder.net/enigmarch25/puzzle34.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">rcveeder.net/enigmarch25/puzzl</span><span class="invisible">e34.html</span></a></p>
Ryan Veeder<p>The <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> people put out an imPROMPTu prompt and it's FORCE so we're gonna check in with the Pergola Mimic again. <a href="https://rcveeder.net/enigmarch25/puzzle33.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">rcveeder.net/enigmarch25/puzzl</span><span class="invisible">e33.html</span></a></p><p>I don't think I can keep up this pattern of reversing the original monster order—unless the next imPROMPTu prompt is TOMTOM or WAZE</p>
EnigMarch<p>Did you think the puzzling was over? Now it's Ahapril, a time for solving the puzzles created last month at a more leisurely pace. Also, if you participated in <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> as a designer or solver, we'd be grateful if you filled out our survey so we can keep improving. Why not let us know what you thought, suggest some prompts, or send in a new idea for next year! <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScjvxQh7oiRxizZhy28pDWtcScPQHSlvI-tlWrjSZiUQ40krQ/viewform?usp=dialog" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI</span><span class="invisible">pQLScjvxQh7oiRxizZhy28pDWtcScPQHSlvI-tlWrjSZiUQ40krQ/viewform?usp=dialog</span></a></p>
EnigMarch<p>Congratulations to everyone who participated in <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a>! 🏆 We hope you enjoyed the puzzle-packed journey and maybe even learned a thing or two along the way. Why not look back at all the 2025 prompts and relive the journey once more? Maybe there’s something else you could learn along the way….</p>
Ryan Veeder<p>The <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> people revealed an imPROMPTu prompt, and the prompt is "PROMPT," so, here's another puzzle, featuring the Crystal Devil, again <a href="https://rcveeder.net/enigmarch25/puzzle32.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">rcveeder.net/enigmarch25/puzzl</span><span class="invisible">e32.html</span></a></p>
Sarah<p>I thought I might be out of ideas for <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a>, but today I skimmed CYOA #151, Gunfire at Gettysburg (pretty dark stuff!), and later I saw an epigraph by Fred Rogers, and now this puzzle exists for day 28 (prompt: DRAW).</p><p><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kpODop8SWUVgnC9AJQ0Y9PuPduRSCZms9DVj5U3xAeo/edit?usp=sharing" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d</span><span class="invisible">/1kpODop8SWUVgnC9AJQ0Y9PuPduRSCZms9DVj5U3xAeo/edit?usp=sharing</span></a></p>
EnigMarch<p>After a 30-day whirlwind of puzzle design, the <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> prompt for March 31 is...PUZZLE. Good luck!</p>
EnigMarch<p>We are almost at the end of our puzzling journey! The <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> prompt for March 30 is ROUTE.</p>
EnigMarch<p>Three more days to go! The <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> prompt for March 29 is COMPASS.</p>
Sarah<p>The <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/EnigMarch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnigMarch</span></a> prompt for day 26 is PLAY, so I found the CYOA book with "play" in the title—#135, Playoff Champion—and made a drop quote puzzle loosely related to it. (I still don't get why they put a kid in charge of the baseball team, but it must've been someone's idea of an adventure.)</p><p><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gpTj4tsE_uErt6PzA2FUPCQexIXpNIuU5JLUHnZ6ZRw/edit?usp=sharing" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d</span><span class="invisible">/1gpTj4tsE_uErt6PzA2FUPCQexIXpNIuU5JLUHnZ6ZRw/edit?usp=sharing</span></a></p>

The USA clown President Trump and his buffoonish adviser Elon Musk don't understand gender and they throw tantrums when trans women play women's sports.

As if the problem there is trans women—anyone who only claims to want to participate in some activity just to peek in the changing room is a menace, no matter what their gender, even if everyone agrees on what that gender is. For example, Trump bought some beauty pageants. For years, he barged into dressing pageant dressing rooms.

I got distracted writing a puzzle for #EnigMarch day 22 (prompt: BOARD) because I started reading CYOA #112: Skateboard Champion and it's amazing. There are at least FOUR choice points where you can decide to give up skateboarding, and if you're lucky, you might stumble into an incredibly awesome action movie about a kid who's a pretty ok skater and stops a crime ring.

Anyway, here's a puzzle:

Steve Gordon is the greatest skateboarder you’ve ever seen, and he’s agreed to teach you everything he knows! It’s only prudent to take some notes on what moves you worked on today so you can stay focused on your goal.

↔️ Backside—turning around so your backside is upslope
🔄 Invert—being inverted in the air
♒️ Slaloming—a winding or zigzagging movement

INCLINE 🔄 DECLINE
STEVE ♒️ SEE
LOOP ↔️ POOL
PRESENT 🔄♒️ BET
GOOD 🔄↔️ LIVE
ANNOUNCE ♒️🔄 ???
ROADTEST ♒️↔️ ????
