Knights always tell the truth, knaves always lie, read their statements to work out who is which.

How to play
On this island, every knight tells the truth and every knave lies. Each islander makes a statement about the others' types, and from the web of claims you must deduce every islander's type and uncover a hidden fact. Harder rounds add normals, who may say either, making the deduction tougher. Mark each islander once the logic forces it.
