The Ring in the Boat

A young man is poor, and a client's life is not an easy one — but he has saved enough for a single gold ring, and today, by boat, he means to ask for her hand. Solve seven puzzles to see the promise made.

Fully self-contained, self-grading, and ready in seconds — just open the file and go. Perfect for a no-prep lesson around Valentine's Day, or a stand-alone review day.
