Manuel Garand is a puzzle maker from Montreal, Canada, whose puzzles have appeared in the Financial Times. When he’s not inventing new logic puzzles, he’s spending time with his two favourite sidekicks – his two-year-old and six-month-old sons – and his wife, Cindy, who was the first to get hooked on his puzzles and remains his most passionate (and competitive) test-solver.

These visually appealing, addictive puzzles drop solvers into immersive mini murder mysteries, combining the elegant simplicity of games like sudoku with the storytelling of classic logic problems. But Murdoku introduces its own unique element: full-colour visual representations of the characters’ environments, with each element playing into the investigation: rooms, furniture, plants, animals, and sometimes additional rules that add an extra twist. You’ll explore 80 crime scenes including a bakery, a casino, a chess tournament, a farm, an opera . . . the variety is endless. The puzzles start out easy and gradually increase in difficulty to expert level. Do you have what it takes to become a master detective?
