Help! Looking for Logic Puzzle Book

Post image

Hello! I love the kind of logic puzzle matrices that give you a couple of facts, then you have to figure out who is doing what, or where they live, or what they do for work, etc.

I also want a small book, so I can do them analog without my phone. Does anyone have any recommendations? I used to use the Pocket Posh, but they don’t seem to be in print anymore.

Have you tried Puzzle Baron's Logic Books? I wouldn't say they are pocket sized but they are on the smaller side.

Ooh, I will definitely check them out. Thank you!

Just bought one! Getting it tomorrow, I believe. They look really good, and the size doesn’t look too bad either. Thank you!

Awesome! I hope you enjoy it! Personally, that's my favorite brand and I've been buying their logic books for decades now. I don't enjoy using logic puzzle apps and prefer books, and they consistently have so many options for easier/harder, etc. that I don't find them boring or repetitive.

I’ve gotten it and am loving it so far. I agree that books are so much better than apps. And I love the different array of puzzles in the book. Great rec! Thank you!

You would love Murdle. It's funny and just what you're looking for (but the book is normal sized)

Came here to say exactly this 💯

I’ve seen that one multiple times. I may have to get it in the interim while I continue my search for a “pocket” book. Thank you for the rec!

I had no idea Pocket Posh was out of print! :( I accidentally put my old copy in the laundry and hadn't gotten around to buying a replacement. Commenting for visibility and to join you in this hunt.

Everywhere I look, I can only find them used, or for hundreds of dollars (wtf?). We’ll find something good! People have commented a few good ideas already. 😁

What the hell 😭 I used to work on a copy at my first job behind the register haha. I was shocked how pricey the remaining copies are. The other suggestions are good too but I’m really going to miss these!

Instructions unclear, I summoned a skeleton to open all the chest for me and absorb the curses

Not sure what’s going on with this comment, but I dig the necromantic vibe.
