Update: Murdoku joined the site yesterday. It's a murder sudoku — place cat suspects in a mansion's rooms, follow witness statements that are always true, and the suspect left alone with the victim is the killer. 4×4 Easy and 6×6 Tricky cases, generated fresh every time and solvable by logic alone. Also shipped this week: the Shikaku tutorial now teaches corner-to-corner drag instead of "press the number" (pointed out by Reddit players), and a cleanup pass deleted 345 dead CSS rules across 29 pages plus 30 small QA fixes.

One confession: the public changelog had gone stale for a month while all this shipped. Caught it while writing this post and backfilled it.

How Murdoku works:

• Place suspects so no two figures share a row or column.
• Every witness statement is true: where they were, what they stood on, who they were with, which room was empty.
• The victim's room holds exactly two figures — the victim and the killer.
• Place everyone, hit Accuse!

The feedback loop stays open: tell me what feels wrong and it usually ships the same week.
