has a unique solution - no guessing required#2: Jan Wolter (jan) on Aug 13, 2007
I agree. It is possible to reason your way all the way through this, but it isn't easy.#3: Michael Ahr (mahr) on Aug 13, 2007
Very nice puzzle.
I wanted to make a really challenging one, but I'm happy to see the above comments, because the "Helper" program didn't get very far with this one. Congratulations to Paul and Jan, since, although I could MAKE this one easily enough, I certainly can't SOLVE it myself.#4: Marie-Louise Ambrey (marz) on Aug 13, 2007
I had great fun doing this puzzle, it was just a matter of finding that one elusive square to keep me going, loved it :)#5: Gypso (Gypso) on Aug 14, 2007
Yipee! I finished it. With all the encouraging comments regarding its solvability I just worked it one square at a time and BINGO!#6: Arduinna (arduinna) on Aug 16, 2007 [HINT]
Thanks so much for the challenging puzzle that kept me coming back for more! Now that its finished, I had great fun! :)

Yes Theresa (it is Theresa, right?) I discovered the same thing on this puzzle for the first time too! I'm so glad that you posted it for other solvers to benefit from. That was right thoughtful of you. :D#8: Jan Wolter (jan) on Aug 16, 2007 [HINT]

I've been picking up the puzzles I hadn't solved yet. This one must've just been "marked as solved", because I lost it when the server went kablooey.#15: Pam Tucker (grammypam) on Apr 25, 2023
Nice puzzle! Makes me nostalgic!
