Logic Games

  1. Logic Game 6 step approach
    • 1. Identify the game type
    • 2. Begin your diagram
    • 3. Symbolize the clues
    • 4. Double-check your symbolizations
    • 5. Make deductions
    • 6. Answer the questions in the smartest order
  2. Ordering Game
    • Arrange elements in sequential order
    • Before and after
    • Earlier and later
    • Higher and lower
    • More expensive and less expensive
    • Taller and shorter
    • Younger (or newer) and older
    • Numbering language: “cannot be third,” “must be either first or last,” and so on
    • When you see “exactly once” and “one at a time” language in the setup and comparative language in the clues, you’re dealing with an ordering game.
  3. Grouping Game
    • Assign the elements 
    • From 
    • Among 
    • Grouping games contain language in the setup telling you to select, choose, or assign elements to teams, groups, or bins.
  4. Two Tiered ordering game
    • 1. The setup and the clues will use both grouping language and ordering language.
    • 2. The game will have you assign exactly two elements to each group.
    • 3. The two slots in each group will be specified.
    • Not all two-tiered ordering games will have all three of these hallmarks. Whenever you see a game that has two of the three, you should use the two-tiered ordering setup.
  5. 1-2-2 or 1-1-3
    Not all two-tiered ordering games will have all three of these hallmarks. Whenever you see a game that has two of the three, you should use the two-tiered ordering setup.
