Case Files
This week's file: The Midnight Bank at the Casino Verlaine
Opened Monday, September 21, 2026 · closes Sunday, September 27, 2026 · 2 of 7 released
One investigation, seven cases, one week. Every day from Monday to Sunday adds a case to the same file: the same suspects, the same setting, a new set of clues. The six weekday boards are HARD at 5 suspects across 4 categories. Sunday brings two more names into the room for the EXTRA HARD finale, 7 by 4, and closing it names the culprit.
Same guarantee as the daily three: exactly one solution, reachable by deduction alone. No guessing, ever. Monday's case is each week's free evidence copy. Open it without Pro; the other six, the case notes and the Sunday reveal are what Pro unlocks.
How the week runs
- A case a day, Monday to Sunday. Each one drops at midnight UTC and stays open for the rest of the week, so a day you skip is still there on Saturday.
- Days are independent. They share a cast, not a padlock. You can open Friday's case without having closed Tuesday's.
- The Sunday finale is EXTRA HARD. Two more suspects, the widest board Verdict builds, and closing it is what names the culprit behind the whole week.
- Solve a day and the file opens up. Closing a case adds its note to the file: a true line about that board, written from the solution you just proved.
