Puzzle Description:

seemed apt....no guessing!

#1: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Nov 4, 2012 [HINT] [SPOILER]

here we go with the "?"'s....

I'm sure it'll get removed. except for a lil smile logic for a few blacks in the lower right monkey's mouth, this puzzle is pretty much LLS. gotta look at a lot of things to get there, but this is completely do-able. I think I also had one el dot towards the end, but pretty sure I didn't need it...

Fun to solve and super image. Thank you.

This is fantastic.

I found that the first little push I needed was some internal edge logic on the 6 clue in R37, then at the end I could finish solving that clue with some smile logic.

Nice puzzle. :)

Agree with smile logic at the end. I did some look ahead with the 4 in c23.

This is the best puzzle I have worked to date. Really awesome image. It took me 3 tries and I did it with no guessing. That surprised me! Totally love the puzzle.

Really good puzzle. The whole time I was doing it, I kept thinking... this can’t be right, but still moved ahead with no red flags. In the end, it was solved logically. Well done.

Great puzzle!
#23: Bill (PopPop) on May 4, 2024 [HINT]
I voted LL only, then read #1 and remembered the smile logic in LR. I think I did the rest with LL only, but I'm not sure.

I loved the puzzle - great image and great solve!
