Case 88: The Tent Field

Extra hard, camp and gardenCase 88: The Tent Field

7 people were in the building, and one of them did not come out. Everyone was on a different square, never two in one row or one column, on the 9 wide by 7 tall plan. Work out where each of them was, the victim included. Whoever was alone with the victim did it.

The cards

Pick a person by tapping the photo on their card, the victim too. Then tap a square to put them there, or drag the photo onto it. At this difficulty the game does not cross off rows and columns for you, unless you switch on Cross off for me. Holding a square, or switching the pencil on, makes a note. Keyboard: Enter places, Shift and Enter makes a note.

Good to know

North of someone: in a higher row, in any column. The same goes for south, east and west.
Alone: nobody else in the same room, the victim included. Alone with someone: those two, and nobody else in that room.

Place everyone first, the victim too.

If it is not right yet, checking costs 30 seconds and does not say how many are wrong.
