About
A new murder mystery. Every single day.
Read the clues. Work the grid. Catch the killer. Solvable by pure logic, never by guessing.
How it works
Each morning at midnight, a new case drops. A victim, a handful of suspects, a set of weapons and locations. Read testimony from witnesses and forensic reports from investigators, then use a deduction grid to eliminate possibilities until only one answer remains.
It works like Cluedo's logic, distilled into a 10-minute daily puzzle. Cross-reference what you know: if the chef wasn't at the manor, tick that cell off. Keep going until the grid tells you exactly who did it, with what, and where.
Read the evidence
Every puzzle comes with witness testimony and forensic reports. Suspects lie, investigators don't. Work out which statements you can trust, then cross-reference against the grid.
Every puzzle is solvable through deduction alone. No guessing. No coin flips. The clues uniquely determine the answer, and the generator verifies that before any puzzle ships.
The week
Scoring and conspiracy
Every solve earns points. Speed, accuracy, liar identification, and motive deduction all factor in. A streak multiplier rewards daily consistency — the longer your streak, the more each solve is worth.
Solve all seven days of the week and you unlock the Sunday conspiracy case — a linked puzzle tying the week's killers together. Extra points, extra challenge, and a reason to show up every day.
