001 Murdoku - Puzzle Book

Cozy Murder Mystery Meets Sudoku

In Case 001, Capy and I investigate Murdoku: Vol 1. Think of it as the strategic, brain-teasing child of Sudoku and Clue, wrapped in a delightfully cozy pastel package that replaces gruesome crime scenes with charming room grids and faceless avatars.

Listen to this 8-minute episode for a full breakdown of the book’s quality and mechanics, and find out if you can avoid the same rookie mistake I made.
