Exercise your mind with three different styles of challenging problems. The puzzles vary from mathematical deduction,
to spatial acuity, to lateral thinking. They promise to expand your mind!
INTRODUCTION TO LOGIC PROBLEMS:
Logic Problems come in a variety of forms, and have been fascinating mankind for countless centuries. The three
basic forms include classic logic problems, visual logic puzzles, and the newest and most difficult of
the triad, lateral thinking.
The first two types require deductive reasoning and the application of multi-dimensional logic principles. Lateral
thinking, on the contrary, requires "sideways" thinking in order to solve these tests of your creativity. Each
type will be found on the following pages, separated into their respective sections outlined below. For a real challenge,
check out the bonus section!
As it would be unfair to provoke the mind with these problems without providing the answers, all solutions
are given (except in the bonus section). In addition, two levels of hints are available for the lateral problems. The temptation to cheat will
be great, as the answers are only a mouse click away. However, the solutions are intended for confirmation,
not to settle curiosity. Rest assured, there are very logical and reasonable solutions to every problem
herein, and the process of solving them on your own is the essence! Enjoy!
So, let's get started. Choose one of the categories below:
These Classic Logic Problems are the easiest of the three types, and can be thought of
as building blocks to some of the more difficult exercises. The use of simple math and logical deduction will
provide the key to these clever problems. The solutions are provided, however, try only to use them to confirm your answers.
The Visual Logic Puzzles included in this section are accompanied by original artwork
that are the basis of the puzzles. Various household items and a pencil and paper may be necessary to solve these
tricky spatial puzzles. Some will require traditional logic, while others require "lateral thinking"
(thinking outside of the box). Again, the solutions are provided to confirm your brilliance.
Lateral Thinking requires the most abstract thought, and can be quite complex. Though the problems
presented herein are relatively short in length, their solutions will take careful thought and the ability
to see past the literal meaning of words and concepts.
"Lateral thinking" is different from traditional linear thinking (where we progress sequentially from one step
to the next). Thinking laterally requires the abandonment of ordinary reasoning, thereby eliminating
inhibitions. In other words, rather than making assumptions to decipher explanations, think abstractly to
reveal alternate (and the actual) solutions!
In addition to the provided answers, you will find two levels of hints
available to point you in the correct direction. Enjoy!
How logical are you? If you can figure out the answer to this question, you will earn access to the bonus section
of this site! Just click "Let me in!" below, enter the first word of the puzzle (lowercase) for the
user name, and the solution to this puzzle as the password (entering digits only). Go ahead -- Expand
