All the information needed to solve a Grid Perplexors logic problem is given in the puzzle story and its following clues. A solution grid provides a method of tracking the information deduced from the clues. Each empty box in the grid presents a "yes" or "no" possibility, with each row in the grid containing exactly one "yes" answer. Great practice for standardized tests that reward logic skills.
