LESSON 6Big objects over two squares
Mae's Detective School · Detective Starter Kit (10 free cases)
Big furniture likes to sprawl. Give it both squares.
Rule 2: an object drawn over a line between two squares covers both squares.
'Beside' a big object means next to either of its squares, in the same room. 'On or in' means one of its own squares. A big object you can't stand on blocks both squares.
How to spot it
- An object picture that crosses a square line.
- A clue about a sofa, a long table or a big hive.
Mae's tip
Mark both squares of a big object before you read the clues about it.
In your Detective's Dictionary
