Ski Resort — Murdoku Cases

A lodge, a boot room and a slope — cases split between a warm interior and the cold outside.

The Ski Resort Setting

The lodge’s common room and its fireplace, a boot room, a bar, guest rooms upstairs, a ski store, the lift station, and the slope itself. The split between inside and outside is sharper here than anywhere except the farm, and it is usually the point of the case.

Solving a Ski Resort Case

A small drawer with a strong identity. Inside-outside clues carry most of the weight, and because the outdoor area is large and the indoor rooms are small, the two halves of the plan need completely different reasoning. Check the outside legend before you start.

Rooms You Will Search

A case picks its floor plan from this theme’s room pool, so the same places recur across the drawer and you learn to read them: Tavern, Hut Kitchen, Snow Bar, Sun Terrace, Bunk Room, Locker Room, Ski Rental, Ski Depot, Valley Station, Summit Station, Piste, Bunny Hill, Sledding Run, Ice Rink, Igloo. No single case uses all of them — the generator and the hand-built cases alike take a subset, which is why two cases in the same setting can still feel unalike.

What This Drawer Holds

4 cases — 1 easy, 2 medium, 1 hard, on boards from 6×6 to 8×8. Every one is verified to have a single solution reachable by forward deduction alone, so none of them needs a guess.
