Tired of Sudoku? Why not try Marple?
Marple is a logic reasoning game. The playing field consists of 20 tiles, each 5 columns arranged in 4 rows and a set of clues. The goal of the game is to use the given clues to find the correct order of these 20 tiles through an elimination process.
There are four different types of clues: "Between", "Left of", "Same Column", and "Next". The "Between" clue indicates that the middle tile must be between the other two tiles. However, it doesn't tell the order of the other two tiles or their distance from the middle one. The "Left of" clue indicates that the left tile must be to the left of the right tile. However, it doesn't tell how far apart they are. The "Same Column" clue indicates that two tiles must be in the same column. The "Next" clue indicates that two tiles are adjacent to each other. However, it doesn't tell the order of the two tiles.
