NEW CASEBOOK: Magic Dungeon is open. Torchlit corridors, warm cauldrons, strange creatures, and suspects with darker secrets.
Sudoku meets murder mystery puzzles.
Murder Sudoku: Tiny Crimes turns whodunit mysteries into bite-sized logic puzzles. Every case gives you a grid of rooms, a victim, a handful of suspects, and a set of clues. Use deduction to work out where everyone was at the moment of the murder.
The rules are simple, the cases are not. No two people can share a row or column, every clue is true, and there is exactly one correct solution. Solve the board and the mystery resolves itself: the suspect left alone with the victim is your culprit.
No guessing. No luck. Just clues, logic, and a quiet little crime waiting to be cracked.
FEATURES
- Sudoku-style row and column deduction, reimagined as detective work
- Cozy, hand-illustrated crime scenes full of suspects, rooms, and props
- Endless cases, from gentle warm-ups to fiendish expert whodunits
- Competitive leaderboards to race other detectives
- Pencil notes to track your theories as the case comes together
- Pure logic puzzles, every case solvable by reasoning alone
- Short, satisfying sessions perfect for a coffee break or a commute
- Play fully offline, anywhere
- One-time purchase to remove ads. No subscriptions, ever
If you love whodunit mysteries, detective games, logic grids, brain teasers, or a clever Sudoku variant, Tiny Crimes hands you a fresh case to crack one clue at a time.
Follow the clues. Place the suspects. Find the killer. Can you crack every case?
I got into mystery sudoku originally with a puzzle book I fell in love with but wanted to see if there was an app so I didn’t have to carry my book around. Absolutely love this! 😊The illustrations are adorably designed and the mysteries are fun and have levels of difficulty which is nice. It’s exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for making this app! 💕If I had one suggestion it would be a button to let us mark like a red X in squares we know someone can’t be, but that is a very minor thing ☺️

Great game

Really enjoying this game. It is better than most of its style. My only critique would be that I’d love a pause button that stops the timer. I often have to pause to do something and have to back out of the level to stop the timer. Also, a reset button might be nice as well.
Clever game

One of the few to take the sudoku concept end make a really interesting game of it. If you enjoy logical games this is very worth your time.

Great app but ads are too much
Benji Dawson
I love the app but the ads feel excessive there is one after every game that you can finish quickly so thats basically and ad a minute I love that it makes you money but maybe you could space it out tl maybe every 3 games or something
Developer Response
Hi! Thanks for the feedback. I chose never to interrupt gameplay with ads, only between games because I thought that we'd be less disruptive. I'll consider spacing them out in case you finish cases very quickly though. Btw, there's a cheap one-off purchase to get rid of all ads for ever.
A friendly arrow now points you to the Daily Challenge whenever today's case is still waiting for you. Classic board controls are the default for everyone; the compact controls are still available in Settings. Out of hints? You can always watch an ad or pick up a hint pack.
