Puzzles are cool. What's some of your favorite puzzles you've encountered as a player or some of the best ones you've thrown at your players as DM?

One of the first ones I made that I enjoyed was in a Sphinx's lair. The players walked in and were presented 5 red gems, 5 blue gems, and 1 green gem. The blue gems would take them forward in time to the room, the red gems would take them back in time and the green gem would reset the room. They had to travel through time in the room to collect 5 tiles needed to open the next door. The effective times were past, present, and future with tiles in different locations of each time. Affecting things in the past would change the layout of the room in the present and future and changing the present would affect the future room. One of the tiles in the room was guarded by a dragon that would age with the room. So the group (or one member), was meant to travel to the past and destroy the dragon as an egg since they were too underleveled to even take on a Wyrmling
