Give a description of a crime scene and the students have to figure out what happened by asking only yes or no questions.
Description:
Joe is dead in a room. There are three sets of tracks leading into the room and two sets of tracks leading out of the room. There is a stain on the floor under Joe.
Solution:
Joe hung himself. There is nothing else in the room except him, the rafter on which he hung himself, the stain on the floor, and the tracks. He had a large block of ice ordered on which he stood to hang himself. He then let the ice melt. The tracks were him, the delivery man, and his hand-cart. They brought the ice in, then the delivery man left with his cart.
