Lateral Thinking (Soup)
The AI guards a hidden answer; you close in with yes/no questions
In Lateral Soup (a yes/no situation puzzle) the AI guards a strange hidden solution and answers only yes/no questions, so you close in on the truth — and it never leaks across dozens of turns.
How it plays
- 01The AI presents a strange scenario (the "soup surface")
- 02You may only ask yes/no questions
- 03It answers: yes / no / irrelevant / partly
- 04Reveal the answer once you have it
Why it is good
It is a reliable, non-leaking oracle that stays logically consistent over dozens of arbitrary questions — the same primitive that powers locked murder mysteries.
