Twenty detective cases, each with a short story and five types of puzzle. A pocket watch goes missing at 221B. A cat disappears from a tea party. A concert hall loses its sound. Read the story, compare the clues and decide what the evidence supports. FIVE TYPES OF PUZZLE • Spot the Change — compare two statements and find all the altered details. • Find the Missing Piece — identify information that the statement leaves out. • Connect the Evidence — match each claim to supporting evidence. • Remove the Noise — keep useful clues and remove unrelated sentences. • Verify First — choose what to check before accepting a claim. CHOOSE YOUR CASE Each of the 20 cases has its own story, cover illustration and difficulty level. Choose a challenge without replaying easier cases to unlock it. Replays draw from a pool of problems for that case. Five cases are fully free, including their stories and all five puzzle types. The leaderboard and research page are also free. Full access opens the other 15 cases, including the hardest challenges, and your training analysis. REVIEW YOUR PRACTICE See your accuracy by weekday, time of day and puzzle type.
