Getting tired of Sudoku? Why not try Marple?

Marple is a game of logic and deduction. The playing field consists of 20 tiles arranged in 4 rows of 5 columns each and a set of clues. The goal of the game is to figure out the correct order of those 20 tiles using the given clues by process of elimination.

There are four different types of clues: "In between", "Left of", "Same column" and "Next to". "In between" clue tells that the middle tile has to be located in between the other two. It however does not tell the order of the other two tiles or how far they are from the middle one. "Left of" clue tells that the left tile has to be located left of the right tile. It however does not tell how far apart they are. "Same column" clue tells that the two tiles have to be on the same column. "Next to" clue tells that the two tiles are adjacent to each other. It however does not tell the order of the two tiles.

Features:
 * 1,000,000 fiendishly clever puzzles to play so don't expect to run out of them any time soon! At 3 minutes / puzzle, 1 hour / day = ca. 137 years of puzzles!
 * Tutorial mode
 * Hint system that highlights a clue that you should be concentrating on next and also explains exactly what you should be doing next.
 * Graphical help with beginner tips

## Marple Reviews in United States

### ***** "A favorite!"
Why don’t more people know about this game? It’s one of the best. Please make an iPAD version.
-- SandyD99, 2024-04-19

### ***** "Been playing since 2008"
I’ve been playing this game off and on since 2008. I keep coming back to it as a way to occupy a few to a lot of minutes.
-- kvanh, 2024-03-28

### ****- "I’ve never seen your clues to be wrong but I came across one"
Puzzle 231 had a serious error. 
I took a screenshot for you but can’t send it in the review.
-- Jewwlryartist, 2024-03-14

### ***** "Maximum replays"
This game has a learning curve, but once you learn all the techniques it is enjoyable game after game.  It’s a classic puzzle game that I've been playing for years.
-- Melek76, 2023-11-17

### ***** "Would be an awesome Apple Arcade addition"
Still playing sooo many years later.  I'm happy this got updated for 64bit, unlike so many other abandoned apps from that era.
-- Marvin101010, 2023-09-06

### **--- "This is a clone of another game"
This app seems pretty old, but it’s definitely not as old as the game it’s based on. Everett Kaser software created a game far too similar to this one in 1991 — Sherlock. Even the names are too similar. I’ll try this game out to see if it’s original at all but winning awards in 2008 for a game created almost 20 years earlier doesn’t sit well with me.
-- Pocket Rebel, 2023-01-02

### ***** "Nice logic game"
A great “One more game…” app. I’ve really loved logic games for the last 20 years and this one is a nice mix of new elements. That said, once you know the rules it’s relatively simple so it’s far more about being observant than thinking things through…but I still enjoy the test of my ability to notice what next step I need to take….
-- Bri2Pay, 2022-12-30

### ***** "An absolutely perfect game"
One of the first I ever downloaded and still the best
-- ikemarrus, 2022-08-23

### ***** "A classic I keep returning to"
I’ve been playing this app since the iPhone 3G was released, and I will always have it on any iOS device I own.  A simple, classic, fun game.  Good brain exercise without being stressful.  For me, it’s a must-have game.
-- Deg, 2021-10-12

### ***** "100x better if all the fonts were changed to Helvetica"
Very fun game if you can overcome the steep learning curve. Would be 100x better if all the fonts were changed to Helvetica.
-- Mick_Schroeder, 2020-12-16
