A problem set for beginners of the mystery game ``Sea Turtle Soup'', which is also called a situation puzzle, a lateral thinking puzzle, a Yes/No puzzle, etc., is now available!

Let's learn together from the tutorial so that even beginners can enjoy it!


What is "sea turtle soup"?

It is done in a group of two or more people, with one person acting as the questioner and the others acting as the questioners.The questions can be answered with YES/NO.
For questions that are unrelated to the story, the questioner will answer "Not relevant."
The questioner guesses the story the questioner is thinking by asking questions, and the game ends when they are able to uncover the truth.

A game that utilizes ``lateral thinking,'' a thinking method that generates ideas for answers without being limited to the facts obtained from a problem.
Also called ``situation puzzle'' or ``yes/no puzzle.''

The game is played in groups of several people, and the ``questioner'' (one person) presents the problem in written form, and the ``answerer'' (several people) solves the problem.

However, the biggest feature is that the questions posed by the questioner cannot be solved just by reading the text, so the answerer asks the questioner a question that can be answered with "yes" or "no", and uses the answer as a hint to solve the problem. We will solve it.
Rules may be added, such as not being able to ask core questions, or setting a limit on the number of questions you can ask.

Unlike quizzes, there are patterns such as multiple correct answers and descriptive tricks in the question sentences, so it is important to read the questioner's thoughts and ask the appropriate questions to solve them quickly. is the key.

[What is lateral thinking]
·overview
Lateral thinking is a method of generating ideas to solve problems without being bound by existing theories or concepts. It was proposed by Edward de Bono around 1967.
De Bono describes conventional logical and analytical thinking as vertical thinking, and while it is effective for deepening logic, it is difficult to generate innovative ideas. In contrast, lateral thinking is a method of generating intuitive ideas by looking at things from a variety of perspectives. If vertical thinking is like digging deeper into an already dug hole, lateral thinking is like starting to dig a new hole.

・Horizontal thinking method

stimulating way of thinking
Make a list of your wishes for something, what would happen if you exaggerated a certain part, what if you reversed it, what if you removed it, what if you tried combining it with something else, etc. This is a method of selecting the most unusual among them and using it as the basis for new ideas.

Concept diffusion thinking method
Generate ideas by considering whether a certain concept can be widely applied to other things.

counter-evidence thinking method
Generate ideas by debunking widely held beliefs, questioning what is considered obvious and obvious, and attempting persuasive refutations.

[Example of problem]

Q.What happened during the launch? ``Do you have any potato chips left?'' Eikichi, who was drinking on the other side, peeked out. "Oh, take whatever you want," Junpei replied. Most of the contents of the opened potato chips remained, but Eikichi tried to take the unopened one with him. Then Junpei hurriedly stopped him. Why?

Q.A certain mysterious building is one to six stories high. Two, there are people on every floor who have a reason to go there. (There are no off-limits floors or unmanned floors.) 3. Elevators are installed on all floors and can be used.

Why does this happen?

Q. ``Cameo-kun, would you like to have lunch soon?'' When I heard Umio-kun's voice, I suddenly looked at the clock and saw that it was just the right time. ``Sounds good, would you like to go to the usual ``Lateshin'' restaurant?'' We go to the restaurant ``Lateshin'', which is located just outside the restaurant, often because the menu changes daily and we never get tired of it. He seemed to think about it for a moment, then smiled and nodded, so he headed towards the store. As regulars, the staff member saw us sitting at a table and explained the daily specials as usual. ``I guess I'll have chicken curry then.'' Umio always makes an immediate decision. I was a little hesitant, and since I drank a little too much last night and was feeling sick to my stomach, I decided on the lightest option. My orders for ``a bowl of sea turtle soup and a glass of water'' arrived at the same time. As I put my hands together and took a bite of the soup, I realized my mistake. When I looked up, Umio-kun was grinning, and I realized there was nothing I could do. What exactly was the mistake I made?
