How to play

How Red Herring Works

How to solve any puzzle in this block.

1

Find the group you are sure of

One category is usually unambiguous. Removing its four words shrinks the field sharply.

2

Distrust the obvious word

A word that fits several groups is almost always the planted one. It belongs to whichever group is left.

3

Solve by elimination

The last group needs no insight at all — it is whatever remains once the other twelve words are placed.

Red Herring Tips & Strategy

Advice that applies across the whole 3,001–3,100 block.

1

Work the block in order

These 100 puzzles run 3,001–3,100. Solving in order means every page links straight to the next — no menu, no scrolling.

2

The easiest word is the trap

If a word leaps out as belonging to a category, check whether it fits another one too. That is exactly the decoy the puzzle is built around.

3

Start with the group you are certain of

Four words removed from sixteen makes the rest far more tractable. Certainty first, cleverness second.

4

Count before you commit

If a category seems to have five candidates, one of them belongs elsewhere. The count is always exactly four.

5

Look for the boring category

Puzzles usually pair one obvious theme with three subtler ones. Finding the plain one first is the fastest route in.

6

Read all sixteen before grouping

Every puzzle page lists the full set together, because the decoy only shows up when you can see what else is on the board.

About this block

Blocks of one hundred exist so you never scroll a list of thousands. Each card above carries a detail taken from that puzzle — the letter set, the picture name, the author — so the right one is usually recognisable without opening several.

Every puzzle in this block links onward to its neighbours, so once you are inside you can keep moving without coming back here.
