Start with the easy file if the grid method is new to you. The medium and hard files use the same layout but ask more of the clues: an either-or statement, a comparison of ages or prices, a difference of exactly two years. Every puzzle has one solution, proven by our solver, and none of them needs a guess.
What each logic puzzle PDF holds
The easy file mixes 3×4 and 4×4 grids: three or four categories, one of them always the people's names, with four items in each. Every step follows from a clue read directly, a yes that clears its row and column, or a chain such as "the baker is Rosa and Rosa drank tea, so the baker drank tea".
The medium file moves to 4×4 and 4×5 grids and adds clues you have to hold two ways at once: "either Dan or the person with the red bike", "of Ava and Lee, one is 40 and the other ordered the soup". It also brings in simple bounds, so someone who is older than another person can't be the youngest.
The hard file runs 4×5 and 5×5. Here you'll meet exact differences ("paid $2 more than"), chained comparisons and adjacency, plus cross-elimination, where an option dies because it can't agree with anything left in a third category.
Solving a logic grid on paper
- Mark an X for every pairing a clue rules out and a dot for every confirmed match. One mark per cell keeps the grid readable.
- When you place a dot, cross out the rest of its row and column in that block straight away. Most early progress comes from this.
- Copy every match across to the other blocks. If Rosa is the baker and Rosa is not in seat 3, the baker is not in seat 3.
- Tick off clues once they're fully used, but leave comparison clues live: they often give a second deduction later.
- When you stall, reread the clue that mentions the most categories and ask what it rules out in a block you haven't touched. The step by step logic grid guide goes further.
More printable puzzles with answers
For a dozen at a time, the numbered packs hold 12 logic grid puzzles each: Pack 1 is easy, Pack 2 is medium and Pack 3 is hard. Same format, same answer pages at the back.
Number and grid puzzles have their own printable packs, listed below: killer sudoku, nonograms, kakuro, calcudoku, samurai sudoku and jigsaw sudoku, each graded from easy upward. If small type is a struggle, the large print logic puzzles are printed bigger, one puzzle to a page.
Printing tips
Print the puzzle pages and leave the answers on screen, or print everything and clip the answer pages behind a fold. A pencil with an eraser beats a pen on the harder grids, where one wrong X early on can cost you the whole puzzle.
If you're printing for someone else, the easy file is the gentlest place to begin: the clues are short and every deduction shows on the grid.
