Your goal is to determine the murderer, the weapon, and the room by using the clues presented. There are six choices in each category:
Murder suspects:
- Ms. Bluebird
- Miss Crimson
- Mrs. Ivory
- Mr. Kelly
- Prof. Periwinkle
- Sgt. Saffron
Weapons:
- Baseball bat
- Cleaver
- Dumbbell
- Poison
- Shotgun
- Telephone cord
Rooms:
- Bedroom
- Closet
- Den
- Foyer
- Garage
- Washroom
The puzzle presents a series of numbered clues. Each clue is in the form of a statement followed by a number. The number indicates how many elements mentioned in the statement are part of the correct answer. For example, statement number 1 is followed by a "1" so exactly one of the three elements (Ms. Bluebird, telephone cord, or closet) is part of the solution. In this case, if Ms. Bluebird is the murderer, then the telephone cord and the closet did not play a part in the murder. See if you can figure out whodunit with what weapon in what room.
- Ms. Bluebird committed the murder in the closet with the telephone cord. (1)
