Chief Detective

The Lighthouse Mystery

Someone's been up in the old lighthouse after hours — and this morning the lamp was flashing an off pattern, throwing off boats coming into the bay. Four people admit they were there: Priya, Otto, Mabel, and Delia. The keeper's logbook confirms which landing each was on — but their statements about where on that landing don't all add up. One of them is lying.

Clues

Logbook, always true.

Statements

One of them is lying.

The culprit had been standing right beside the lamp when it happened.

The Lighthouse Mystery

Drag a suspect onto a square, or tap a suspect and then a square. Tap a placed suspect to see the name; tap again to take them off the board. No two suspects may share a row or a column.

The top row is always the front — the entrance, the street side, whatever's closest to the front of the scene. The bottom row is the back.
