Hints

Stuck? One nudge at a time.

Open one hint, go back to the evidence, and only take the next if you need it. Each topic’s answer is here too, behind a warning.

  1. Pick your part, then the topic you’re stuck on.
  2. Each topic has three hints. They get more direct as you go.
  3. Only open a topic’s answer when you’re ready to give up on it.
