About this case

Daily #52 opens the door on the Kid's bedroom, 24 squares of floor on a 5 × 5 board with four short walls inside. The rule in here is simple: nothing gets tidied without a fight. The family has been here for three earlier dailys. Four of the Fibbersons were there: Dad, the Kid, Grandma and Rex. One of them is fibbing. On the case file: Who drew a crayon rocket on the wall? What they saw, or didn’t, is about the ball and the globe, and each other. Place them in the Kid's bedroom so every story fits but one, and that one is your answer.

In the room

  • Bookshelf tall
  • Bed low
  • Teddy flat
  • Toy chest low
  • Ball flat
  • Globe low

The bookshelf is tall, so nobody sees past it, but Rex smells straight through. The bed, the toy chest and the globe are low: they block the Kid, who’s short, and nobody else. Underfoot: the teddy and the ball, flat, in nobody’s way. The room isn’t a plain rectangle: one of the board’s 25 squares are cut away.

How they see in here

  • Dad sees his whole row and column, 5 squares across and 5 down, until a wall or something tall gets in the way.

  • The Kid sees his row and column too, but he’s short, so the low things in here stop him as well as the tall ones.

  • Grandma is nearsighted: two squares along each of her eight directions and no further, anywhere in the Kid's bedroom.

  • Rex sniffs rather than looks, and only the eight squares touching his own; not even a wall stops his nose.

Every rule, with pictures, is in How to play.

A tip for this room

Make every story fit at once. When you can do that for all but one, with everyone placed, that one is the odd story out.
