Puzz Pack - pencil-and-paper puzzle game
SCRAP (realescapegame.com) is the Japanese company that first introduced real-life (as opposed to web game) escape rooms to the world. A few years ago, they came out with Puzz Pack, a game consisting of a series of pencil-and-paper puzzles in their characteristic style. The game came with 2 identical sets, one for play and a "replay" set. This is the replay set (I already used up the original set).
