How to play

A short guide to solving a Who Sat Where? case on your phone, tablet or computer.

  1. Everyone, the victim included, stood on a different row and a different column of the plan.
  2. Bookcases, tea tables, plants, clocks and pianos fill their square, so nobody can stand there. Armchairs, rugs and benches can be used.
  3. Read the clues and place each person. Rows and columns go grey once someone is in them.
  4. Each clue ticks ✓ when it fits your plan, and turns red ✗ if it doesn’t.
  5. When everyone is placed, accuse the one suspect who shared the victim’s room.

Stuck? Hints come in three steps: where to start, which clue to use, then one sure fact. Every case has exactly one answer and can be solved without guessing.
