I played 3 rounds now and I get the feeling the clues aren't always enough to deduce the next assignment. Which is too bad, because the game itself is fun
Since I've gotten the hang of it, I've not encountered a puzzle where any choice was a guess. It certainly felt that way at times when I first started, though.
I agree. Every time I'm sure that the game is wrong, when I look and rethink I understand my mistake. There is a subreddit for this game where they discuss it, but nothing here on Lemmy. I wonder if there is enough interest here to start one?
FYI The daily game community c/dailygames usually has someone post about this game every day
Thanks!
you’re missing something. been playing for a few months, only one time ran into a bugged puzzle and Sam had it corrected within a couple hours of release.
Yeah, it seems I need to give myself more time to properly think through the clues
Pretty disappointing that it doesn't allow you to access old puzzles.
Sign up for his newsletter and he emails out the previous week's puzzles, as well as since bonus ones.
their business model I guess
Or that there's lack of logic in current ones.
I've played this game for over a month now, maybe two, and I haven't encountered a single instance of that happening. The next answer is always deducible by logic. I have gotten stuck plenty of times, and a few times I even thought the game was totally and definitely wrong, only for me to realise that I missed something.
If you continue playing, you should know that the games get harder as the week goes on. The weekend ones tend to sometimes take me 15-20 minutes to work out.
I just found out my problem is it must've glitched, cause I had the clues for two guilties and it said I didn't have enough evidence, and the give me was Bruce, which it really shouldn't have been.
The clues for Bruce are tough but its correct
there isn’t.
I just tried guessing and it let me pick bruce, but I don't see a clue for it.
I was stuck on the same one.
Take Peter's hint: It says that either Sofia or Wanda are criminals, so there's exactly 2 confirmed criminals, 2 confirmed innocents and Bruce on Column B.
Now take Gabe's hint: There cannot be 3 criminals on Column B, so Bruce needs to be innocent.
got it, thanks
I love this game! Since a streamer I like was playing it once, I've been hooked. If anyone is having trouble, scrolling down in the page had some explanations of some clues.
Wonder if there's enough interest in this to create a comm for it. Or maybe a more generic 'daily game' thing

Pretty clever and surprisingly difficult, I was stuck on Bruce for the longest time.

It won't let me continue no matter who I pick or what I pick
Look at Oscar and Tom. How many innocents in row 5? What does that mean for Sofia's other neighbors?
That was fun. Three mistakes before I got it.
I'm pretty stuck on this one. https://cluesbysam.com/s/help/01c315cae125?state=bEzQ-AAAAAAA%3D The hint has me pointed towards C5, but only based on a hint about edges. There are 5 unknown people on the edges, not counting two in the left corner of which one is innocent and one is guilty. So I have no idea what its clues are trying to say matters here.
