Description

Murdoku books: sudoku and murder mysteries in one puzzle

The Murdoku collection brings together Manuel Garand's puzzle books, which combine the logic of sudoku with mini murder mysteries. Each page features a full-color illustrated crime scene, with rooms, furniture, plants and animals that are part of the puzzle, and a group of suspects who must be placed according to placement rules. When everything fits, the final rule reveals the culprit.

Books you'll find in this collection

The first book, Murdoku, 80 crimes para resolver, features settings such as a bakery, a casino, a chess tournament or an opera, with difficulty rising up to expert level. Murdoku Volume 2, Regresso ao Passado takes the investigation to medieval, pirate, Wild West and Ancient Egypt settings. If you know you won't stop at the first one, the bundle with both books brings together 160 crimes at a better price.

Who is Murdoku for?

It's an ideal pastime for adults and teens aged 12 and up who enjoy sudoku, visual puzzles and detective stories. The first cases take minutes to solve and teach you the rules; the last ones demand attention to every detail of the illustration. If you prefer written clues and deduction grids, also check out the Murdle books, the sister series available in our store, or pair a book with one of our puzzles for adults for a full evening of logic.

How to get the most out of each case

Use a pencil and start by marking the impossible positions for each suspect on the illustration, just as you would with the numbers in a sudoku. Reread the rules of the case whenever you get stuck: there's almost always a detail in the scene, an animal, a plant or a window, that you haven't used yet. And resist peeking at the solution; the satisfaction of finding the killer on your own is what makes Murdoku so addictive.

All Murdoku books are the official Portuguese edition, with real stock and fast shipping from Portugal. Find out more on our dedicated Murdoku page. If you're not sure which one to choose, get in touch: we'll help you find the right option for every age and occasion.
