Cluemojis (Puzzleship)

About Cluemojis (Puzzleship)

Cluemojis keeps the row and the deduction of the classic Zebra Puzzle but gives every item an emoji, in the grid and in the clues, so you can see at a glance what a clue refers to. Clues range from direct placements, such as the teacher living in the last house, to relations like next to, somewhere to the left of, or between two others in order.

The size follows the difficulty: four houses and four attributes at the easy end, five houses with five or six in the middle, and five houses with seven at the top. Colour is always present; the rest come from a large pool of drinks, pets, jobs, flowers, sports and more. Most clues cannot place anything alone, so crossing out early is the habit that pays.

Puzzleship publishes six puzzles of Cluemojis a day, graded from very easy to ultra hard. Each day's puzzles are numbered and dated, the same for every player, and appear at midnight in your own time zone; earlier days stay playable in the archive. The site is free with ads, and a premium plan removes them.

How to play Cluemojis (Puzzleship)

1. Open Cluemojis and pick one of the day's six puzzles.
2. Read all the clues before placing anything.
3. Give every house one item from each attribute, placing direct clues first.
4. Cross out items that clues rule out of a house.
5. Finish when every emoji sits in exactly one house.

Tips

• Cross out as soon as a clue rules something out, even if nothing is placed.
• Somewhere to the left removes an item from the last house, and its partner from the first.
• Next to an end house has only one possible neighbour.
• Between A and B in that order rules out both ends at once.
