Whodunnit Daily - Hint for August 14, 2026

The scene: The expedition's only map was found torn to shreds. 4 explorers shared the tent. That puts Ines, Thea, Will and Sam in the frame — and once you line their statements up, they can't all be telling the truth.

Stuck on today's case, The Torn Map? Here's a nudge to help you solve it yourself - no spoilers.

The statements

• Ines: “I didn't do it.”
• Thea: “I didn't do it.”
• Will: “It was Ines or Sam.”
• Sam: “Will is telling the truth.”

Your hint

Find the statement that can't be true alongside the others. The suspect it implicates — or the one whose own claim collapses — is your liar.

Re-read the statements with that in mind before revealing anything.

Still stuck?
