## What is Riddle of Einstein Puzzle?

Riddle of Einstein Puzzle (Einstein's riddle or "Zebra puzzle") is a well-known riddle attributed to Albert Einstein.
It is said that only 2% of the population is able of finding the solution.

The goal of the game: Use logic to deduce the value of each tile in the grid.

At first, each tile displays all possible values.
Use clues to narrow down, and then figure out, value of each tile.
The clues are at the bottom of the screen.
Touch a tile to display a pop-up window with possible values for the tile, touch values to turn them off or back on.

Eventually, each tile must occupy its cell in the table. Each solved cell contains only its element, and unsolved one contains all elements that could possibly be in that cell.

Use clue not only to locate where certain element is, but also where it can not be.

There are four types of clues to help:
"Same column" - Both tiles are in the same column
"Neighboring columns" - Adjacent (neighboring) columns, either direction
"Left of" - The left tile is in any column to the left of the right tile (not necessarily in succession)
"Three in a row" - Three tiles in adjacent (neighboring) columns, either direction

## Key features

- Logic-based deduction
- Grid-based puzzle solving
- Clue interpretation
- Elimination of possibilities
- Multiple clue types

### 2/5 — Loved it once…

*2025-12-02*

I had this oeen my iPad years ago - I loved it then. TBH, I mostly use android/windows tech. I recently got a MacBook, this was one of the 1st 3 games I got. I don’t know if it is device or user or game or other related, but it isn’t working. When I try to open it, it looks like it’s going to initially - the icon kinda pops out - but nothing else happens. Now that I know it’s been like 5 years since the dev has done anything, I doubt this will even be read, but just in case… if you’re wanting it for phone or iPad, I do recommend. Its simple graphics and mechanics shouldn’t be dismissed if you like logic puzzles!

### 1/5 — Won’t let you figure it out yourself

*2018-12-30*

This game will only let you select the correct answers, and won’t allow you to make any mistakes while you work out the solution on your own. How is this meant to be challenging or fun if you can’t do the puzzle yourself?
