About Death by Deduction

Welcome to "Death by Deduction", a unique combination of logic puzzle (similar to Minesweeper) and classic country-house whodunit, set amidst the opulent backdrop of 1970s England.

In the wake of the enigmatic demise of an eccentric millionaire, your investigative journey leads you to a solemn gathering at a sprawling English manor.

Explore the manor and uncover pieces of evidence by meticulously uncovering its hidden clues. When all of the evidence has been gathered, you'll have the chance to arrest the murderer and solve the case.

Interrogate suspects, examine evidence, and deduce who the murderer is before you become the next victim in this deadly game of cat and mouse.

Get ready to challenge your intellect and unravel the mystery that shrouds "Death by Deduction."
