Instructions on Solving Logic Problems:
---------------------------------------

Read each clue carefully and keep track by placing an "X" in every square eliminated and an "O" in every square confirmed.  You can place an "X" in a square by clicking once on the "X" box and then in the square. Place an "O" in the square by clicking once on the "O" box and then in the square.  The "X" or "O" box will stay on until you click on the other one or on the eraser.  To erase one or more squares, click once on the pencil eraser down toward the lower right-hand corner and then once in the square you want to erase.  You will have to click on the eraser each time you want to erase a square (one click on the eraser is good for erasing only one square).

Example:

If the clue says something like "Mary won the Lotto," place an "O" in the grid square relating to both "Mary" and "Lotto" and an "X" in all of the other squares in that section relating to "Mary" and "Lotto."  If the clue says something like "Neither John nor Fred inherited the money," place an "X" in the boxes at the "John" and "inherited" grid junction and one in the "Fred" and "inherited" box.  See the example below.

             Found                  Sold      Won
            Document | Inherited | Company | Lotto
----------------------------------------------------
Sally      |         |           |         |   X   |
----------------------------------------------------
John       |         |     X     |         |   X   |
----------------------------------------------------
Mary       |    X    |     X     |    X    |   O   |
----------------------------------------------------
Fred       |         |     X     |         |   X   |
----------------------------------------------------

Since you can tell from the grid that Sally is the only one who could possibly have inherited, you can place an "O" in that box and an "X" in the other boxes related to Sally and Inherited.  Like this:

             Found                  Sold      Won
            Document | Inherited | Company | Lotto
----------------------------------------------------
Sally      |    X    |     O     |    X    |   X   |
----------------------------------------------------
John       |         |     X     |         |   X   |
----------------------------------------------------
Mary       |    X    |     X     |    X    |   O   |
----------------------------------------------------
Fred       |         |     X     |         |   X   |
----------------------------------------------------

Keep going until the whole grid is completed, then press the "Answers" button.  Note that this will show ALL of the answers, not just one or two.

Sometimes in logic problem puzzles you just have to guess.  You'll probably need to go over each clue again and again to determine the answers.

Some people like using fill-in grids and one is provided for you by pressing the "Fill-In Grid" button.  It can help in solving the puzzle.  With the above clues, the fill-in grid would look like this (assuming that in addition to methods of receiving money, the puzzle included amount received and in which city):

Names       Method         Amount       City
---------------------------------------------
Sally      Inherited
John
Mary       Won Lotto
Fred
