I strongly disagree.
Well, there are people who will tell you 'it wasn't a mystery' anyway.
The first day of episode 1 is really rushed. I didn't notice before, but the kind of detail you get in episode 1 isn't present even in 2. 1 might be my favorite episode. But it couldn't just continue like that, you'd repeat the same content.
The direction Battler's reason takes in 2 seems to be a step back from his reasoning in episode 1, as well. Originally, he'd throw away crazy reasoning without even being prompted. The chessboard thinking aspect is interesting as well. Throughout 1 and 2, it's made very clear to the reader that Beatrice does not make optimum moves, and since you won't be able to read her that way, chessboard thinking can't work. So, in order to understand her moves, you have to understand her first. You need to know why she'll be satisfied no matter what the dice result is, as Bernkastel puts it.
It seems to me that you really could have solved the mystery with just episodes 1 and 2. The information is there. It's just extremely difficult to do so.
