Answer Explanation

4 / 15 steps visible
01 · Step 1

Zoe’s clue says that Logan is one of the exactly 2 innocents above Xavi. That directly identifies Logan as innocent. So Logan must be innocent.

02 · Step 2

Logan’s clue says row 5 is the only row with exactly one innocent. Row 5 already has one known innocent, Zoe. That means the other three people in row 5 cannot be innocent, because that would give row 5 more than one innocent instead of exactly one. So Tina, Uma, and Xavi must be criminals.

03 · Step 3

Xavi’s clue says exactly 2 innocents above Xavi are neighboring Oscar. In the shared group identified for this step, there is currently 1 known innocent, Logan, and no unknown people left in that shared group. Since the clue requires 2 innocents there, the remaining target from Oscar’s neighbors for this step, Phil, has to supply the second innocent. So Phil must be innocent.

04 · Step 4

Zoe’s clue says Logan is one of exactly 2 innocents above Xavi. The people above Xavi are Celia, Gus, Logan, and Phil, and Logan and Phil are already the 2 known innocents there. If Celia and Gus were innocent as well, that same group above Xavi would have more than 2 innocents, which clashes with the clue. So Celia and Gus must be criminal.
