So, as you may know, the Christmas season is developing. (17 days till Dec. 1 on the time of writing)
I am considering of posting some Christmas-themed puzzles throughout that season, and simply need some suggestions for a check puzzle that I created round per week in the past earlier than I make the precise puzzle.
I have been making an attempt to apply getting my Hidato puzzles to be tough (like they’re nonetheless solvable), however nonetheless have distinctive options, and am simply questioning if I might presumably make it any tougher whereas nonetheless having a singular answer.
I did have a couple of buddies of mine attempt the check puzzle, however all of them have been unable to finish it for some motive.
Here is the puzzle (observe that it ought to have a 100% distinctive answer, even with 24 of the numbers lacking):
Now, as you may be capable of inform immediately, this can be a Nonogram/Picross mixed with a Hidato. You may be capable of inform that that is additionally based mostly off of my most up-to-date puzzle, which used a cell coloration gimmick that made it so I might have solely 6 digits on the board to start out off with and it nonetheless would have a singular answer. Here’s what the colours right here signify:
- If a cell is $coloration{crimson}{textual content{crimson}}$, that signifies that the quantity within the cell is a main quantity.
- If a cell is $coloration{inexperienced}{textual content{inexperienced}}$, that signifies that the quantity within the cell is a sq. quantity ($sqrt x$ should produce a quantity $alpha$ the place $alphainmathbb N,alphane x$)
- If a cell is $coloration{yellow}{textual content{yellow}}$, that signifies that the quantity within the cell is a dice ($sqrt[3]x$ should produce a quantity $alpha$ the place $alphainmathbb N,alphane x$)
- In any other case, the cell is $coloration{white}{textual content{white}}$ as a result of it doesn’t fulfill any of the above circumstances.
- Observe that the cells are uncolored to start with.
Guidelines of Hidato
Fill the grid with a collection of consecutive numbers adjoining to one another orthogonally or diagonally. All tiles are required to be crammed in.
Guidelines of Nonogram/Picross
The grid have to be coloured or left clean in keeping with numbers along side the grid to disclose a hidden pixel art-like image.
Trace if you’re having hassle fixing:
Resolve the Nonogram first to keep away from doable confusion.
