What this puzzle is about

The Harbor Festival is a four-person puzzle set at a waterfront celebration. Sage, Ezra, Jules, and Ada each carried one festival token (a ribbon, a ticket, a badge, or a flag) and spent time at one of four docks, numbered One to Four. Six clues lead to a single solution.

Who it suits

It is a hard 4 × 4 × 4 grid, but most of its six clues are direct statements, so it is one of the more approachable hard puzzles in the archive. The final "did not" clue is the one that settles the last details. It suits solvers moving up from easy grids and anyone who likes working on a larger board without too many tricky connections.

How to start

Work through the direct clues in order: Sage's ribbon and Dock One, then Jules's badge and Dock Two, then Ezra at Dock Three. After each ✓, clear the matching row and column. Once those are placed, count how many tokens and docks are still open, and only then bring in the clue about Ada.

How to solve this puzzle

Each person has one keepsake and visited one place. A yes mark eliminates the other options in the same row and column. Combine the clues until all three grids agree.
