Not A Clue
A downloadable thinky game
[NOTE: This game is very broken. Please proceed at your own risk]
A paper-pen puzzle-hunt thinky game haphazardly put together for Thinky Game Jam 6.
This is a set of puzzles within a Sudoku.
The Sudoku starts off empty, but as you progress through the mansion, you'll be able to solve more puzzles to obtain digits.
You start off in the kitchen, then progress through the different rooms one by one, getting digits along the way.
Each room has a number of paper logic puzzles, as well as one puzzlehunt-style puzzle. Solving the puzzlehunt-style puzzle unlocks the next room.
The puzzles can be found at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bBMegGwYYtRR-vWW5mNCmFbl7vc6cm8E7wJHMuuS....
Have fun!
Thank you to Loaf for helping out with some of the puzzles. :)
(Note: there is a puzzle in Dining Room that is unfinished. The answer to that puzzle, in ROT13 is PBEXFPERJ. I hope to finish it soon.)

I'm more than a little confused by the Kitchen Counter. The extraction says to "The number that the finished grid shows - the number of Briquets used in the puzzle", but...I'm not really seeing a number in here? (Note too that the upper left is underdetermined: several more rectangles can be put in the spaces that don't have numbers next to them.)
Is it a 19? It looks kind of like a 19.
OK I'm also having trouble with "Tiling the Floor", since it tells me to take a quarter of the area of the diamond-shaped regions, and I have diamond shaped regions with a total area of 18. (I don't think I'm supposed to put "4.5" in the sudoku grid?)
Hmm. That's what you get for writing a whole game in 7 days with no prior practice, I guess. I've issued an erratum!
Hi! I've now issued an erratum: There should be a 1 in the upper-right most corner.
Thanks for catching that!
