Muddy Foreheads

Induction puzzles

Induction puzzles are logic puzzles that involve multiple players with the same reasoning capability, where the solution evolves along with the principle of induction. They typically involve common knowledge and non-verbal communication, and the muddy children puzzle is the most frequently appearing induction puzzle in scientific literature. Hat puzzles are a variation of induction puzzles that date back to 1961, often described in the context of prisoners or wise men.
