New puzzle every day at 12am (midnight) New York time.
Your goal is to figure out who is criminal and who is innocent.
Based on what you know, tap on a suspect to choose if they are innocent or criminal. They might reveal a new clue.
You cannot guess! Just like in real life, you can't convict someone based on a 50/50 hunch. There is always a logical next choice, even when you think there isn't!
And that's it. Good luck!
Everyone is either a criminal or innocent.
Regions don't make some innocent or criminal, unless a hint suggest so. A Ionia is as criminal as a Noxus until proven otherwise.
Every champion speaks the truth, even the criminals.
Neighbors always include diagonal neighbors. One champion can have up to 8 neighbors.
In between (or sometimes just between) means the champions between the two, not including the two.
Connected means a chain of orthogonal adjacency. For example "all criminals in row 1 are connected" means there are no innocents between any two criminals in that row.
Rows go sideways and are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. Columns go up and down and lettered A,B,C,D.
To the left/right always means somewhere in the same row (from your point of view, not the champion's). Above/below always means somewhere in the same column.
Directly to the left/right/above/below always means the neighbor to the left/right/above/below.
All always means there's at least one. It doesn't necessarily mean there's more than one.
One of the innocents/criminals / one of several / one of multiple always means there's at least two innocents/criminals. This is slightly conflicting with "All innocents/criminals..." and I'm open for suggestions how to improve the phrasing here!
Common neighbors means those who are neighbors of both champions. It does not include the champions themselves.
Share means "have in common". For example, "Share an odd number of innocent neighbors" means "have an odd number of common innocent neighbors".
In total always means the sum of all in the group(s). Two criminal cops and cooks in total means there might be 1 cop and 1 cook, or 0 cops and 2 cooks, or 2 cops and 0 cooks.
Corner means the four corners.
Edge means the 14 champions "surrounding" the board, including corners.
... the most always means uniquely the most. If Ahri has the most criminal neighbors, no one can have as many criminal neighbors as Ahri.
An even number means numbers divisible by two: 0, 2, 4, 6... and an odd number means everything else: 1, 3, 5, 7...
More doesn't mean there needs to be any in the lesser group. For example "There are more innocents in row A than row B" doesn't require there to be any innocents in row B.
Numbers are exact unless stated otherwise. "There are 2 criminal coders" means there's exactly 2 criminal coders.
"If A then B" does NOT mean the same as "If and only if A then B". Therefore it does NOT mean "If not A then not B". But please note that, due to how logic works, it DOES mean "If not B then not A". (It's called the contraposition.)
You never need to guess. In fact, the game only allows you to make logical choices.
Tap the top right/bottom corner of each card to add a color tag. This is useful for keeping track of deductions or trying out hypotheticals. How will you use it?
Tap on revealed clues to dim them if you think it's no longer useful to you. This is optional, but can help you keep track of which clues are still relevant.
For clarifying details about the clue terminology in the puzzle, press the View Clue button and then a revealed card.
The Info button allows you to toggle the display of each champion's name and region information on the cards. For players familiar with League of Legends, this feature may not be necessary. However, if you're not familiar with LoL champions, you can enable this button to see the specific information for each champion.
About Champion Region Information:
All champion region information is synchronized with the official League of Legends universe website at universe.leagueoflegends.com. For example, Samira's region is Noxus, even though she was born in Shurima.
