Daily reasoning puzzle for IBPS, SBI & SSC aspirants
Deduce is a free daily logic-reasoning puzzle that trains the seating-arrangement and floor-puzzle section of Indian banking and SSC exams — solve one fresh, server-validated puzzle per difficulty in about 5 minutes.
By the numbers: Each daily puzzle presents 4 to 5 logical clues across 3 difficulty tiers (easy, medium, hard). You get 3 attempts to submit the correct arrangement (MCQ-format days give one attempt, like the real exam). Every puzzle is machine-proven to have exactly one valid solution before it is served, and solve time is recorded server-side — never self-reported. The national and state leaderboards rank solvers by verified time, and a daily streak tracks consecutive days played.
Puzzle and seating-arrangement questions are the highest-weight block of the reasoning section in Indian banking prelims — together they account for 15 to 20 marks out of 35, or roughly 50% of the reasoning section. Aspirants consistently report losing marks on arrangement puzzles due to time pressure, not lack of knowledge. Deduce trains the skill that matters most: solving accurately under a ticking clock.
How it works
- Read 4 to 5 logical clues — each describes a relationship between people or positions.
- Place each person on the board by tapping a name chip, then a floor or seat. Move people as you build and test deductions.
- Submit within 3 attempts on board puzzles (MCQ days: one attempt); the server checks your answer against the unique solution and records your real solve time — never self-reported.
- Review the step-by-step server walkthrough after every round to see how each clue eliminates wrong arrangements.
- Your streak builds across days. Solve all 3 difficulty tiers for a complete daily session.
