mystery-o-matic

mystery-o-matic is a daily detective puzzle where you solve a murder case through logic and elimination. Your goal is to figure out who the killer is, when the murder happened, and which weapon was used by combining suspect statements, evidence, and movement rules.

How it works:

• Each case takes place across a small set of connected rooms.
• Suspects move between directly connected rooms in 15-minute intervals.
• You’ll collect clues about where people were, what they saw, when the victim died, and which weapon could have been used.
• Use the timeline board to mark where each suspect could or could not have been.
• Not every detail of the night needs to be fully reconstructed. You just need enough deduction to solve the murder.
• Some cases may also include a lying killer, which adds an extra twist.

Why we like it:

• ✅Feels like a real logic puzzle, not just a themed guessing game.
• ✅The timeline and room movement make every clue more interesting.
• ✅Super satisfying when the final solution clicks through elimination.

Hint: Focus first on hard facts like room connections, time-of-death clues, and statements that lock someone into or out of a location. In this game, ruling things out is often more powerful than proving every step.
