What it does

The SQL Murder Mystery is a self-directed SQL practice game with a walkthrough for newcomers.

Read the case description, inspect the database structure and use queries to recover the missing report. The investigation gives each query a purpose. The official page says the game is mainly practice rather than a full SQL tutorial, so use the walkthrough if basic SELECT queries are new to you. The database is SQLite, including its table-structure queries. A schema diagram and solution checker help you test the investigation.

  • Designed primarily for practice rather than a complete SQL introduction
