SUPPLEMENTAL CLUES FOR LOGIC PROBLEMS v1.6
Since I have released Logic Problems, people have written to me
stating that the puzzles are somewhat on the difficult side. This text
file is to help you through some of the brain teasers that you stumble
across with the shareware version of Logic Problems.
For those of you that have already registered Logic, I can send
you the full set of the extra clues if I haven't already.
General Hints*
1. I use several adjectives that represent whether an object or last
name belongs to a man or a woman. Some of these include his, her,
she, the man, etc. These are essential when determining first
names, that I made obvious if they were male or female, that are
matched with objects or last names.
2. When concerning time or dates, it helps to jot down the order on
paper to get a clearer picture which one comes 1st, 2nd, etc.
3. Most important, make sure that you migrate all of your GRAY's
after you find that a clue is true or CHECKED. EX: In puzzle #1,
Clue #1 - you discover that Eden is from Texas. Since Cindy is
not from Texas (due to the same number of letters in Cindy and
Texas), Cindy could not be Eden. Therefor by GRAYING out the
Cindy/Eden box, you will discover that Cindy's last name is Hughes.
Puzzle #1 Reunion
1. Albert is not from Iowa.
Puzzle #9 Computer Shopping
1. Bill purchased his computer before Flagg, who didn't want a Tandy.
2. Early, who purchased a computer on the weekend, dates Dee.
Puzzle #13 Reincarnations
HINT* Double check the wording for past or future references. EX: "will
drive" noting the future or "when he was", "lived", etc. noting
the past.
1. The pig ended up on the movie stars dinner plate.
2. Hoss was not the bum, nor was she the slug.
If you would like to order the registered version of Logic Problems
indicate if you would like the full set of extra clues.
Good Luck and I hope that these extra clues will make playing Logic
Problems more enjoyable and as always, feel free to contact me on
CompuServe at 75247,2551 or on America On-Line at BOGIE5555.
