When I first started LSAT Blog, there wasn’t any organized place where law school applicants could practice quality, non-official LSAT Logic Games for extra practice. Sure, there were some out there, but they contained errors. When you’re trying to learn something new, the last thing you want to do is practice with poorly-constructed materials that are flawed themselves! You need to be able to trust the answer key!
Additionally, while there are hundreds of released official LSAT Logic Games, there are a limited number that are *especially* difficult. When you’re shooting for a top score, it’s important to be able to achieve a perfect score on the Logic Games section, as this section is more “perfectible” than the Logical Reasoning or Reading Comprehension sections. As such, many of these Logic Games are *more* difficult than the average official LSAT Logic Game, just to give you some extra practice on tough Logic Games. (However, they’re not more difficult than any that has ever appeared, so they’re still very relevant for you.) I’ve written most of these Logic Games myself, but two (“Actors” and “Seagulls ”) were written by LSAT Blog readers.
Most of my students have found the “Monkeys,” “Debate Topics,” and “LSAT India” games to be the most difficult of those in this set. In any case, I hope these Logic Games get your problem-solving juices flowing and help you to achieve a perfect score on the LSAT’s Logic Games section.
Free LSAT Logic Games are already available with diagrams, and explanations for all of you. Now, LSAT Blog reader Kurst has neatly compiled them into one book, "10 Unofficial LSAT Logic Games."
You can get your copy here for free ---->
I hope this book helps you to achieve a top LSAT score.

Since I like to replicate the LSAT experience whenever possible, when I completed your free logic games the other day, I first formatted them the way games are formatted on the actual test, and printed them. The ten games that are currently available are combined in the attached PDF, along with an answer key and links to the relevant LSAT Blog posts.You'll want to visit those links to see the comments on each game left by other students, as well as my articles containing diagrams and explanations related to each game.
Please thank Kurst in the comments for compiling everything!

Wow! Thank you so much. This is definitely a big help for those of us who have to take the October exam and will be spending ALL of our summer preparing. ^^
ReplyDeleteThanks again for these games, Steve. Practicing with these made PT63's logic games a cakewalk.
ReplyDeleteAwesome - thank you Kurt!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kurst!
ReplyDeleteHi, Steve!
ReplyDeleteDo you know if LSAC released their tests in the 1980's like it did for the last 20 years, and if it did, what were they called and how I can find them? I cannot seem to be able to find anything from LSAC from the 80's apart from something called Official Lsat Sample Test Book (pub. 1986) (about $18 on amazon)?
And Kurst - thank you very much! I will be doing those games.
Hi Danny,
ReplyDeleteI haven't looked much into the pre-1991 exams. Anything they released is probably not worth the effort to get one's hands on. There are over 60 released LSAT PrepTests which are much more relevant and easy to acquire. See this list of LSAT PrepTests.
If you really want them, you can email LSAC at LSACinfo@lsac.org to inquire about the names of the books containing pre-1991, but LSAC does not license those materials anymore, so you'd have to find them through 3rd-party sellers online.
AMAZING
ReplyDeleteThank you!!!
ReplyDeleteThank You
ReplyDeleteThanks Kurst!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kurst!!
ReplyDeleteFor the second game, first question, I am repeatedly getting two feasible answers: A and D. Please advise.
ReplyDeleteSee reply below to dana pierri; Option D for the first question does not list Guatemala as an option. This makes it wrong. A is the correct answer.
DeleteYou're missing Guatemala in D.
ReplyDeleteIf you're referring to the first question of the visiting countries (the second game) set, this is on purpose. It is what makes option D wrong and option A right.
DeleteWhat I'm not getting is how #5 on second game could be answer C as D and E cannot be next to each other
ReplyDeletethat's not the order that those countries are visited--that's a list of countries that could possibly be visited third
Deletecool, thanks.
ReplyDeleteIn Visiting Countries - how can the correct answer be (C)? According to the rules, D and E cannot be next to each other. I got the answer (A). Please advise!
ReplyDeleteThe question is asking which of the countries could be visited third (once the condition that China can't be last is removed--and is in fact visited last). So, once China is last, then Bahrain has to be fourth and Fiji has to be fifth (Due to the established conditions). Thus, any of the following CAN be in the third position: Australia, Djibouti, England, or Guatemala. Disregard the rule that Djibouti and England can't be together because the question doesn't ask any more than what COULD be third. They BOTH can be third--just once one of them is third, it changes which could be second (and the question doesn't ask this).
DeleteHello Kurt, My name is Moses Park, an undergraduate student from UCLA. I just started studying LSAT couple days ago, and wanted to thank you for doing this.

Hello, thanks so much for compiling this! Question on Greek Deities puzzle- have you seen this before on an LSAT where there were several variables beginning with the same letter? I found myself using WAY TOO MUCH extra time on this one trying to keep everything straight. It would be great to know if this is a potential situation to be prepared for on the test, as I haven't come across it before.
ReplyDeletethank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
