Logic Puzzle 1

By

For this puzzle assume all answers are unique (no one is in the same year or lives in the same block)

Below are some clues about 4 position holders in Trevs, where they live, where they prefer to work, what year they are in and what their favourite colours are:

  • Neither of the people living in Trevs without ensuites have to leave the building to get to their preferred working spot
  • The President is a 4th Year
  • The Chair is younger than the Treasurer
  • The Liver Out does not like red
  • The Vice President lives out
  • The President does not have to leave the building to get to their preferred working spot
  • The person working in the bar has the favourite colour yellow
  • The J block resident loves blue
  • The liver out is older than the Treasurer
  • The Vice President does not like working in the Dowrick
  • Returning Livers In cannot live in E block

Does the person who loves Green work in the JKH or the Undercroft out of choice? What year is the K block resident in?

The JKH and Dowrick cannot be accessed from the main building without going outside.

K block contains the en-suite rooms.

    I really enjoyed how this puzzle gradually builds a full picture from such specific clues—it feels like each detail, like the President being a 4th Year or the Vice President living out, adds another satisfying piece to the logic. The twist about locations and preferred work spots, especially not having to leave the building, made it more interesting than a typical grid puzzle. I found myself pausing to double-check assumptions, which is always a sign of a well-crafted challenge. It’s the kind of puzzle that rewards patience and careful thinking. I sometimes explore similar logic breakdowns on https://patchesanswer.com./ when I get stuck, and it definitely helps sharpen this kind of reasoning.
