Made a mistake when I got a bit stuck and wasn’t completely sure what “above” strictly meant

Don’t think this is a spoiler but “above” means above and also in the same column, not just anywhere on a higher row

Second attempt. It’s surprising how hard it still is after you’ve solved it once!

Stuck here.

Summary

Says that based on Jason, a Criminal Farmer, “only 1 of the innocents nieghbouring nick is in row 4”, and “exactly 1 innocent is neighbouring scott”, so would that make one of the two doctors in column C criminal, because there is as many criminal doctors as criminal famers, and there is one criminal farmer, so one of the doctors either side of oscer must be innoncet?

Bloody hell

okay, got past this, but I don’t understand why is Scott a criminal?

I don’t understand how that’s possible to be sure?

Got off to a flier, then got really bogged down for a bit.

I don’t understand this game. It is utterly fucking baffling.

by the end i was just clicking and guessing, and hoping that the game gave me a win. i don’t think this is for me. also, the game doesn’t explain why the links work; it should.

no maths in this though?

A combination of the clues in C5 and B2

  • B2 tells you that one of Ruth, Scott and Tyler is innocent, and two must be criminals
  • C5 then tells you that one of Scott’s neighbours (Ruth or Tyler) is innocent.
  • If Scott was innocent then he AND one of his neighbours would be innocent, violating the info in B2
  • Therefore Scott MUST be a criminal

It’s logic. Logic is part of maths

Anyone succumbed and paid for extra puzzles? I’m too tight

what? it was taught to me in computing

I tried the tutorial on mobile and can’t get all the text in each clue to appear, it cuts off at the bottom. Am I doing something wrong?

Logic is literally the foundation of mathematics

yeah, not for me man, no way would i have made that.

honestly, this has unlocked something about my brain that i find really intersting; even reading through what you’ve said, and getting through the puzzle… i still don’t understand. the mixture of english, the names, the grid layout, and maybe the size of the text or font or something, i really find this impossible to parse.

fascinating. it makes me think i have some cognitive block on understanding certain logical puzzles. it is likely why i struggled with Chants of Sennar and other games that have puzzles like this. Case of the Golden Idol, for example.

i’m not being dense; how? like… surely counting is the basis of maths?
