If, like me, you loved Murdoku Volume 1, then this sequel will be right up your alley! In fact, I consider “Murdoku Volume 2: Back in Time” to be superior in every way to the first volume. (I’m already clamoring for the third volume of puzzles, to be released in October.)

Murdoku Volume 2 is a significant improvement over its predecessor. Several shortcomings from the original volume were fixed and new features were included to add spice, variety, and challenge to the puzzles.

To begin with, one of the shortcomings in Volume 1: The puzzle grid did not have any squares blocked off, requiring the reader to block squares that were occupied in the puzzle. This is fine, except that on more than one occasion I overlooked a potted plant or a desk and failed to block the corresponding square on the grid, with the result that I was either unable to solve the puzzle without peeking in the back to discover my error or that I tricked myself into a logical contradiction. This could be remedied by taking more care and exercising more attention to detail, but was still inconvenient. The second shortcoming is that the reader also had to invent notation for chairs and cars and other “special” squares, which could look sloppy or become confusing. Both of these problems were fixed in Volume 2: the puzzle grid shaded in non-occupiable squares and had a notation system for the various types of “special” squares. This made the puzzles much more convenient and user friendly!

The final flaw from Volume 1 was that the puzzles progressed in difficulty from easy to quite hard over the course of all 80 puzzles. This is all well and good— variable levels of challenge are absolutely necessary. But the way this was done meant that the first 45 puzzles were almost boringly easy, and the last ten or so puzzles could be maddeningly difficult back to back to back. In Volume 2, the puzzles are broken into thematic “chapters,” and the difficulty progresses from easy to hard in each chapter. This means that the really tricky puzzles are spread out, and then the difficulty level resets at the end of each chapter, giving a little mental breathing space. This made the puzzles much more engaging.

New features in this volume include the aforementioned thematic chapters, which add a sense of cohesion and unity to the puzzles, and make it possible to include an overarching story arc in the same vein as the Murdle puzzles. (In this case, a detective solves a crime in a lab with a Time Machine and gets thrust backwards in time, navigating through the millennia trying to find his way back to the present.) I like the overall concept; it added a taste of the exotic and some atmosphere, which made the puzzling and reading experience much more enjoyable… but I’m a sucker for the right kind of atmosphere. I especially adore ancient Egypt, the European Medieval period, and all things pirate, so this was a much appreciated touch.

Finally, each chapter (and this was a stroke of brilliance!) introduced a new rule. In one chapter, there were special “glyph” squares that, if occupied, made certain demands. In another chapter, characters were restricted to Noble areas or Peasant areas (except for the Knights who could be anywhere). In another, there were a certain number of unknown “outlaws” amongst the suspects who needed to be identified to solve the puzzle correctly. These fun new additions kept the puzzles interesting and stopped them from becoming repetitive.

In short: “Murdoku 2: Back in Time” is a blast! It’s even better than the original both in terms of setting and the in the diversity and quality of the puzzles. I can hardly wait for Murdoku Volume 3 to be released! I’ve already pre-ordered my copy.

These continue to be FUN and also deeply challenging.

I loved that Volume 2 introduces different mechanics. My favorite chapters were the medieval/royalty and Ancient Egypt.

El segon culpable de la meva davallada lectora d’aquest any. Una genialitat, com el primer. A més, en aquesta segona publicació han introduït novetats i modificacions que cal tenir en compte i que el fan diferent.
Molt entretingut!

I’m obsessed with these. I did volume 2 first, and having read about the updates from volume 1 it seems they’ve fixed most of the frustrations encountered. My only note is I wish for the answers at the back they’d have spent a bit more time on the ‘why’ certain moves weren’t possible, bc my OCD brain would not let me just accept the answer without understanding it. But that’s a tiny * in what is otherwise so much fun. I love that when I don’t have the mental capacity to read at night these puzzles still allowed for an analogue activity that I enjoyed and allowed me to spend less time on my phone. I can think of so many friends and family I will be gifting this book to.

Some good brain training! I did not do them all or all the time periods, as at a certain point, it became too difficult for me. Will return to it in quiet evenings.

It plays like the Old Mine Sweeper game, but it is more entertaining and cutely illustrated.

To niewątpliwie zabawa dla tych, którzy uwielbiają łamigłówki oraz gry logiczne, ale też książkowe odsłony zagadek kryminalnych. Murdoku to z pewnością nieprzypadkowa nazwa, z jednej strony nawiązuje do klasycznego sudoku, w każdej kolumnie i w każdym rzędzie znajduje się tylko jeden bohater o danym imieniu, z drugiej natomiast to oczywiste nawiązanie do popełnionej zbrodni, która ewidentnie domaga się znalezienia niebezpiecznego sprawcy. 

Każdy szczegół i każda z tajemniczych wskazówek mają ogromne znaczenie, warto więc zachować czujność i szczegółowo analizować udostępnione podpowiedzi. 80 m0rderczych wypraw to nowa edycja i nowe doznania, ale ten sam detektywistyczny klimat, do którego przyzwyczaił nas zbiór 80 zabój¢zych łamigłówek. 🔥 

Co nowego w porównaniu do poprzedniej edycji? 
- zbrodnie podzielone na epoki, każda ma swoją niepowtarzalną aurę i swoje zasady specjalne, 
- niektórzy bohaterowie mogą zajmować tylko konkretne obszary, 
- dużo nowych obiektów, pól specjalnych oraz pól zadań - każdy rozdział rządzi się własnymi zasadami, więc trzeba najpierw zapoznać się z dodatkowymi wskazówkami, 
- tym razem jest odczuwalnie trudniej, trzeba poświęcić więcej czasu i dokładnie przemyśleć prawdopodobną lokalizację każdego z bohaterów. 

Ale warto! 

Murdoku to rewelacyjna forma rozrywki i myślę, że idealnie sprawdzi się jako prezent dla miłośnika zagadek kryminalnych. 🔥

A este, até o mais novo se juntou. Gostei que tivessem adicionado temas e enigmas extra (descobrir os bandidos, por exemplo). Tirando dois ou três puzzles que me enervaram por parvoíce minha (depois de ler dezenas de vezes a mesma pista, não tinha ainda percebido que não estava a ler bem 🤦🏻‍♀️), foi um excelente exercício mental e neste segundo volume já estava muita mais oleada.
Continua a haver um ou outro detalhe que se perdem na tradução, além de que nem sempre os nomes são perceptivelmente de homem ou de mulher. Aparte isso, espero que haja mais volumes deste vício.

If you know me, you know I love a puzzle book! I enjoyed Murdoku Volume 1, but I LOVED Murdoku Volume 2. The theming for each section, plus additional challenges and roles used to satisfy each series of clues, was a delight. The subtle changes from era to era helped keep the puzzles fresh. It's also nice that the answer key explains each solution clearly so you can easily check your work.

Las mecánicas nuevas respecto al volumen anterior son bastante originales. Sin embargo, tiene un fallo muy gordo y es que la mayoría de niveles no se pueden resolver simplemente con las pistas que te dan al inicio, tienes que ir mirando las de atrás o ir probando ensayo-error, lo que hace que el juego pierda la gracia.

This isn’t really a book I would normally mention here. It’s a book of puzzles. But, I’m rating this anyway because it is awesome! I’m 25 puzzles in and addicted. These puzzles get progressively harder by chapter and they are such twisters they call on real logic skills and problem-solving. I love it. I’m going to buy all three volumes.

Entretenido y adictivo, si bien empezar directamente por este segundo volumen (como hice yo) no sería lo más recomendable porque la curva de dificultad es exagerada, desde el principio asume que ya estás curtido en el primero. Los últimos casos son endiablados. Con miedo de lo que tengan preparado para el tercer volumen si sigue aumentando la dificultad.

“Murdoku Volume 2” by Manuel Garand is not a traditional novel, but a puzzle book built around 80 murder mystery logic challenges. Its main appeal is the way it combines the satisfaction of sudoku-style deduction with the atmosphere of a crime story, turning each puzzle into a small mystery scene that the reader has to solve through clues, logic, and careful attention to detail. The book is designed to feel playful, immersive, and steadily more difficult as it moves forward, making it both a brain teaser and a storytelling experience.

The book’s setup is simple but clever. A mysterious time machine sends the solver backwards through different historical eras, and each chapter or section places the reader in a new setting with its own visual style, rules, and puzzle mechanics. Instead of solving the same kind of grid over and over, the reader is dropped into the Stone Age, medieval times, Ancient Egypt, the Golden Age of Piracy, and the Wild West. Each era gives the puzzles a different mood, so one case may involve a temple, another a pirate cove, another a tavern, and another a frontier town. The time-travel frame gives the book variety and keeps the experience from feeling repetitive.

At the center of each puzzle is a murder mystery that must be unraveled by placing suspects correctly on a grid. The clues tell the reader where each person, object, or detail belongs, and the goal is to figure out who was alone with the victim, which in turn reveals the killer. The solving process depends on deduction rather than guesswork, so the book rewards patience, pattern recognition, and logical thinking. The puzzles are presented in full color and are heavily illustrated, which makes them feel more like mini crime scenes than abstract number games.

One of the book’s biggest strengths is that it is accessible to different kinds of solvers. The puzzles are said to range from easier warm-up challenges to much harder late-book cases, so beginners can learn the system while experienced puzzlers still have room to be tested. That progression creates a sense of momentum, since each success builds confidence while the later mysteries demand more concentration. The book is meant to be addictive in the best sense: each solved grid gives a feeling of completion, but the next case immediately invites another round of detective work.

The visual storytelling is also a major part of the appeal. Every crime scene is packed with small details, and those details matter because they help the solver place suspects and eliminate possibilities. The settings are not just decorative; they are part of the logic. Furniture, animals, objects, and environmental clues all become part of the deduction process, which makes the puzzles feel richer than a standard grid exercise. The full-color artwork helps each mystery feel distinct, and the historical settings give the whole book a playful sense of adventure.

The overall structure of the book suggests a journey as much as a puzzle collection. The reader is not just solving disconnected cases; they are traveling through time while trying to find their way home. That frame gives the book a light narrative spine, enough to make the sequence of puzzles feel like one long expedition through history. The historical chapters create the feeling of moving from one world to another, while the recurring murder-mystery format keeps the challenge consistent. The result is a book that feels both varied and cohesive.

“Murdoku” is a clever mix of logic puzzle book, time-travel adventure, and murder mystery game. It offers 80 self-contained cases that ask the reader to think like a detective, use visual and verbal clues carefully, and solve each scene with methodical reasoning. The book’s charm lies in the combination of rich illustration, historical imagination, and clean deductive structure. It is meant for anyone who enjoys puzzles that feel a little more theatrical than usual, and for readers who like the idea of solving crimes one grid at a time while hopping across history.

Toen de eerste Murdoku uitkwam, had ik deze uitgepuzzeld voor ik het wist. Ik kon dan ook niet wachten om dit tweede deel, Murdoku: Terug in de tijd, op te pakken! Murdoku is een soort sudoku meets Cluedo. In dit boek zijn er weer 80 nieuwe crimescènes waarbij het aan de puzzelaar is om de dader te vinden. Extra leuk aan deze versie is dat we letterlijk terug in de tijd gaan. Van de Middeleeuwen tot het oude Egypte: alles komt voorbij in dit boek.

Het boek begint met een duidelijke uitleg over hoe je de puzzels moet oplossen. Zo bevindt iedere persoon zich in een andere kolom en rij, kunnen zich geen personen bevinden op vakken waar iets op staat (bijvoorbeeld een boom of boekenkast) en ligt het slachtoffer in het laatst overgebleven vak. De persoon die met het slachtoffer in dezelfde ruimte ligt, is de dader. Stapsgewijs word je in een voorbeeld meegenomen waarin wordt uitgelegd hoe je de puzzel kunt oplossen. Daarnaast bevat het boek een lijst met objecten en een trefwoordenlijst.
Het leuke aan deze editie is dat we sprongen maken in de tijd. En met ieder tijdperk komen er ook weer nieuwe aanwijzingen bij. Zo gaat het eerste hoofdstuk over de Middeleeuwen en is elk personage een dorpeling, edele of ridder. Deze personages hebben weer hun eigen regels (zo kan een dorpeling zich niet in het gebied van een edele bevinden en kan een ridder zich overal bevinden). Dit zijn alweer extra aanwijzingen waar je als puzzelaar mee aan de slag kunt. Ieder tijdperk heeft andere regels, waardoor de variatie in het boek aanwezig blijft.

En dan is het tijd om zelf te puzzelen! In totaal staan er 80 puzzels in het boek, die eenvoudig beginnen maar steeds moeilijker worden. Aanwijzingen die je bijvoorbeeld kunt krijgen, zijn: Adam zat op een paard, Bram bevond zich in een hoek van de tuin en Cora stond in een modderplas. Al puzzelend kun je personen plaatsen en daardoor andere posities uitsluiten, tot er uiteindelijk nog één vakje overblijft: dat van het slachtoffer. Als het goed is, heb je dan ook de moordenaar te pakken. Achter in het boek zijn de antwoorden te vinden, met nog een korte tekstuele toelichting voor het geval je vastloopt. Naast de daadwerkelijke puzzel bevindt zich een ‘kladpapiertje’ waarop je de mogelijke personen die in een bepaald vak kunnen horen, kunt bijhouden.

De eerste versie heb ik verslonden en ook met deze editie ben ik al aardig op weg. Ik vind de extra spelregels en tijdperken een erg leuke toevoeging. Iedere keer dacht ik: ‘Nog één puzzel dan.’ Inmiddels gaan de eenvoudigere puzzels mij goed af, maar ik moet bekennen dat ik nog regelmatig aan het gummen ben bij een ingewikkelde puzzel. Maar des te leuker is het wanneer je uiteindelijk de dader vindt!

Ik ontving dit boek via de uitgeverij. Dit beïnvloedt mijn mening niet.

Murdoku Vol. 2 is an intriguing book that kills time while giving readers a chance to train their minds. It succeeds in entertaining the audience by making them work out their brains to reveal the logical solutions of different puzzles. I find it quite ingenious because it fosters a spirit of investigation, which makes people more patient and inquisitive without making them feel annoyed, rushed, or obligated.

The broad range of different puzzles and the variety of puzzles set in different eras (the Middle Ages, Ancient Egypt, the American Frontier, and others) help the book to keep the audience’s attention in the process of working out the mysteries. Moreover, the rules for each section, which are specific for each of the puzzles, prevent the book from getting boring. The puzzles in the book also differ in challenging levels from simple ones that readers can solve without serious efforts to more complex ones requiring re-evaluation of everything they have learned from the first page.

Another outstanding feature of the book is an excellent design with attractive pictures and grids for puzzlers to keep track of their progress in each puzzle. Moreover, at the end of the book, there are notes for the most complex mysteries that provide hints for those who cannot solve them. The increasing level of difficulty allows readers to move from one mystery to another after they have got the skills to solve it. Even though some of them may find the puzzles in this book difficult, they will appreciate the quality of the mysteries that require more than just a simple investigation.

Finally, unlike most of today’s popular books and magazines, this one gives the audience a chance to think over a new mystery without staring at glowing screens of phones or tablets. It does not entertain readers for a short time while distracting their minds from everyday problems. Instead, it invites them to return to this book again and again, depending on their moods and the need for a new intellectual challenge.

In conclusion, Murdoku Vol. 2: Back in Time is a collection of mysteries that successfully engage the reader in an exciting intellectual exercise. It provides the broadest scope of creativity and critical thinking needed for solving a mystery. With a wide range of challenges, it maintains the readers’ interest without making them feel frustrated. Finally, people who love murder mysteries, logical puzzles, and detective stories will find this book a rewarding experience.

🔎🩸 Ottanta nuovi omicidi da risolvere, cinque epoche da esplorare e un solo obiettivo: scoprire chi è l’assassino!

Con Murdoku 2, torniamo a mettere alla prova la nostra logica con una nuova raccolta di enigmi investigativi che, questa volta, ci porta indietro nel tempo. Le regole restano le stesse del primo volume, ma cambia completamente l’ambientazione: dal Medioevo al Far West, passando per l’età dei pirati, la preistoria e l’antico Egitto, ci aspettano ottanta nuovi casi da risolvere, ciascuno con i propri personaggi, indizi e misteri.

Il meccanismo è semplice da comprendere, ma tutt’altro che scontato: proprio come nel sudoku, bisogna ragionare sulle griglie, seguire attentamente gli indizi e individuare la posizione di ogni personaggio, fino a scoprire chi è l’unica persona presente nell’area della vittima al momento dell’omicidio. È un mix davvero originale tra enigmistica, deduzione e investigazione, capace di trasformare ogni schema in una piccola indagine e di farti venire voglia di risolvere un caso dopo l’altro.

Se con il primo volume mi ero divertita moltissimo, sono davvero curiosa di mettermi alla prova anche con questo secondo capitolo. Alcuni enigmi mi avevano costretta a fermarmi e a ragionare a lungo, tanto che in qualche occasione avevo dovuto arrendermi e consultare le soluzioni. Ma è proprio questa la parte divertente: osservare ogni dettaglio, formulare ipotesi e cercare di arrivare alla risposta senza lasciarsi sfuggire nulla.

Adoro anche il fatto che sia un’attività da poter condividere con gli altri. Confrontarsi sulle ipotesi, discutere gli indizi e cercare insieme l’assassino rende tutto ancora più coinvolgente, trasformando questi rompicapi in un passatempo perfetto da fare in compagnia.

E sapete già cosa farò la sera di Halloween? 🎃 Mi procurerò qualcosa di buono da mangiare, rigorosamente a tema, non mancherà una bella maratona di film horror e, una volta terminata, mi dedicherò a qualche misterioso caso d’omicidio… questa volta viaggiando indietro nel tempo! Perché, diciamocelo, quale serata migliore per improvvisarsi detective e cercare assassini tra pirati, cavalieri medievali e antichi egizi? 🕯️🔍

Insomma, Murdoku 2 sembra avere tutti gli ingredienti per regalarmi tante ore di divertimento e mettere nuovamente alla prova la mia capacità di osservazione e deduzione. E se gli ottanta casi dovessero finire troppo in fretta, spero proprio che ci sia in programma un terzo volume!

Helemaal opgaan in een spannende thriller is mijn favoriete manier om te ontspannen, maar ik maak ook heel graag verschillende soorten puzzels. Onlangs kreeg ik van Uitgeverij Lannoo de kans om kennis te maken met de puzzelboeken van Murdoku.

Tot mijn grote verbazing kreeg ik zelfs beide puzzelboeken toegestuurd, samen met een heel leuk paar sokken. Zoals de naam het al zegt, los je moordmysteries op als een sudoku.

Beide puzzelboeken beginnen met uitgebreide en duidelijke instructies. Op het eerste zicht lijkt dat misschien veel, maar eigenlijk is de theorie logisch en helder uitgelegd. Na enkele puzzels was ik er helemaal mee weg.

Vanaf de tweede puzzel is er plaats voor notities zodat je niet meteen in het grote vak moet noteren en eventueel corrigeren. Bij sommige puzzels is het meteen duidelijk waar je een verdachte kan plaatsen en die initialen kon ik wel meteen in het grote vak noteren.

De puzzels zijn enorm verslavend. Het is super leuk om de mysteries op te lossen en wanneer je er enkele na elkaar goed hebt, wil je blijven verder puzzelen. Dat ze leuk en verslavend zijn, betekent niet dat het ook makkelijk is om ze op te lossen. Naar mate je vordert, worden de puzzels moeilijker en werd het notitiegedeelte bij mij heel wat rommeliger.

Bij het tweede Murdoku-puzzelboek (Terug in de tijd) vond ik de puzzels sneller moeilijk worden. Zo heb je daar per deel trouwens een speciale regel, wat natuurlijk een extra uitdaging vormde. In dit puzzelboek werden de niet beschikbare vakjes trouwens al grijs gekleurd in het notitiegedeelte. Hierdoor weet je in één oogopslag waar je geen personages kunt neerzetten.

De meeste puzzelboeken die ik heb zijn zwart-wit geprint. Dat doet uiteraard niets af aan het puzzelplezier, maar ik vond het leuk om ditmaal eens puzzelboeken in kleur te hebben. Daarnaast is de vormgeving heel erg origineel en mooi om naar te kijken.

Puzzel je graag? Dan kan je aan de slag met de uitdagende moordmysteries van Murdoku. En zijn ze met momenten net iets te uitdagend, dan kan je toch even bij de oplossingen spieken om verder te kunnen puzzelen. Zelf heb ik al heel wat gepuzzeld in beide boeken. Een aantal mysteries moeten nog opgelost worden, ideaal om dat tijdens deze warme dagen af te wisselen met lezen!

Dankjewel aan Uitgeverij Lannoo voor deze recensie-exemplaren!

🧩 Hoy os traigo una recomendación muy diferente pero que se ha convertido en la obsesión viral de las últimas semanas! Si os apasionan los juegos de lógica, los acertijos de detectives y queréis poner a prueba vuestras neuronas de una forma súper divertida, tenéis que subiros al tren de la «murdokumanía». No estamos ante una novela al uso, sino ante un librojuego interactivo que fusiona de manera brillante la mecánica lógica del sudoku con el suspense de los enigmas.

☀️ Es una propuesta absolutamente ideal para el verano. Todos esos nostálgicos que de pequeños esperábamos con ganas aquellos míticos cuadernillos de Vacaciones Santillana, vais a disfrutar con este formato como auténticos enanos. Tiene ese puntito adictivo de los pasatiempos estivales de toda la vida, pero elevado al siguiente nivel. El compañero perfecto para devorar bajo la sombrilla de la playa o junto a la piscina 🏖️

🕰️ La premisa es súper original: una máquina del tiempo nos arrastra a través de cinco escenarios históricos (la Edad de Piedra, el antiguo Egipto, la Edad Media, la Edad de Oro de la piratería y el Lejano Oeste). En cada época nos esperan pequeños casos y ambientaciones donde nuestra misión será colocar a los sospechosos en la cuadrícula correcta para descubrir al asesino. La regla de oro es la del sudoku: solo puede haber un personaje en cada fila y en cada columna. Me ha encantado que, aunque sea un libro de pasatiempos, cada uno de los 80 acertijos incluya pequeñas píldoras narrativa humorística que te sumergen por completo en el misterio.

📈 Es un desafío fantástico que va avanzando de forma gradual, empezando por retos más sencillos hasta llegar a auténticos rompecabezas que te obligan a exprimir el cerebro al máximo. Ha sido un aliado perfecto para desconectar un rato cada día.

Mi puntuación: 4/5🌈

Tytuł: Murdoku 80 morderczych wypraw
Autor: Manuel Garand
Ocena: 5/5⭐

Na samym początku chciałabym bardzo podziękować wydawnictwu @wydawnictwobukowylas za zaufanie i powierzenie mi tej lektury do recenzji.

Pierwsza część Murdoku była świetna i nie myślałam, że może być lepiej, a jednak może!
-Druga część zaskoczyła mnie pozytywnie. Rozdziały sprawiły, że zagadki stały się ciekawsze i trzeba było dostosować się do zasad, co było dla mnie naprawdę genialne.
-Ta część jest trochę trudniejsza i trzeba posiedzieć dłużej nad zagadkami co sprawia ogromną frajdę.
-Ilustracje w książce są cudowne i naprawdę oddają klimat danego rozdziału.
Uważam, że to idealne zajęcie na spędzenie wolnego czasu. Pozwala się zrelaksować, ale też trochę skupić. 80 zagadek starcza na prawdę na długi czas, więc za taką cenę bardzo się opłaca.

From not being able to put vol1 down to barely wanting to pick this up. I do like different sections of the book rather than just progressively getting more difficult but it's just been over complicated. The squares are often too dark and a biro has little impact, end up overlooking squares, and some of the planning grids at the bottom are just way too small to fit more than one letter in. The lines don't always match up in the "rooms". Hope vol 3 is more like vol 1! Really disappointed with this, was so excited for it.
