About

Whereabouts

Read full description

Someone in the house is lying. Read the clues, pin every suspect to a room, and find the one who was alone with the victim. Whereabouts is a cozy murder sudoku: a floor plan of rooms, one suspect per row and column, and a short stack of statements that each rule something out. Place every suspect where they truly were, and the killer is whoever is left alone with the victim. EXACTLY ONE ANSWER, EVERY CASE Every case is checked before you see it: one solution, reachable by deduction alone. No guessing, no luck, no dead ends. NO ADS BETWEEN CASES Solve a case, start the next. Nothing plays in between. HINTS THAT EXPLAIN WHY Stuck? Ask the Chief. He walks through the next deduction on a copy of your board and explains the reasoning, so you learn the technique instead of copying an answer. Hints are earned by playing and spent only when you choose. A NEW CASE EVERY DAY Three daily boards, easy to hard, one attempt each. Your solve time goes on the world board next to everyone else's. Opens after level 10. SEVEN EPISODES, SEVEN PAINTED ROOMS Cases come in episodes, each set in its own painted room, from the manor to the train station. Every case you close adds something to the room, until it is complete and the suspects line up. Point at the guilty one to close the episode. BOARDS THAT GROW WITH YOU Start with a few rooms and suspects. Cases grow to eight rooms, with new kinds of clues along the way. Hard and extreme cases appear as you go, and cases never run out. SIMPLE TOUCH CONTROLS Tap to note where a suspect might be. Switch to the marker to rule a room out. Hold, or drag from the tray, to pin a suspect in place. PLAY OFFLINE Every case is on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no connection needed to play. Only the daily case needs one. BOTTOMLESS CUP The whole season is free to finish. The optional Bottomless Cup keeps the coffee coming: unlimited coffee, unlimited hints from the Chief, and double gold from daily chests. Weekly or yearly (the yearly plan starts with a 3-day free trial for new subscribers), at the price shown in the app for your country. Payment is charged to your Apple Account, and the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel it in the Settings app: tap your name, then Subscriptions. If you like murder sudoku, logic grids, whodunit deduction or a daily logic puzzle, this is your house.
