Motive: Murder Mystery Sudoku

Place the suspects, follow the logic and find the culprit. Motive is a murder mystery sudoku: a detective game where people take the place of numbers. Every case is a logic puzzle on the floor plan of a crime scene. Read the statements, rule out impossible squares and work out where everyone stood. When the scene fits together, the suspect left alone with the victim is the murderer. No guessing, just deduction. HOW TO SOLVE A CASE • Place each suspect on one square of the floor plan. • No two people share a row or a column, including the victim. • Some furniture blocks squares. The furniture guide shows which pieces you can stand on. • Every statement is true, and every case has exactly one solution you can reach by reasoning alone. A MYSTERY GAME MADE OF LOGIC PUZZLES If you like sudoku, logic grid puzzles, riddles or brain teasers, this murder mystery game gives you a crime to crack. One statement narrows a suspect down to a room; another pins down the exact square. Combine the clues until only one arrangement is left and the mystery is solved. YOUR INVESTIGATION TOOLS • Rule-out marks to cross off squares, like notes in a sudoku • An evidence notebook to review statements and mark the ones you have checked • Undo to take back your last move • Room and furniture guides to read the scene • Hints when you are stuck FROM SMALL GRIDS TO HARDER CASES Start with small grids and learn the rules as you play. Later levels bring larger scenes and harder combinations of clues, so the logic puzzles grow with you. Keep solving generated cases, earn achievements and climb the online leaderboards. PLAY OFFLINE Take the detective game with you: it plays without an internet connection. Online leaderboards and ads need a connection. Contains ads. Motive is made for fans of mystery games and detective games who prefer logic to luck. Whether you play crime games or love a cozy whodunit, every puzzle here ends with one logical answer.
