Whew, that was tough! Very clever!

Yes, very clever idea. I did have difficulty with the solve, though. The internal edge logic was a bit too challenging in some places, at least for me.

Used symmetry to solve after realizing both side triangles were symmetrical. Not hard to solve, but because of size had to keep scrolling up and down. I like your puzzles, only wish you would make some smaller ones. I know you have in the past.

Thank you Donna, I'm getting back on the game after a long hiatus so I'm learning back how to make good image work and its easier to do more detail on bigger puzzle. But I can promise you that I'll do smaller one too in the near future. I just don't want to produce puzzle that aren't up to what I use to create.

I really enjoyed that puzzle. Welcome back. Great as always

normally, I'd see "40x60" and not never even give it a go...but those "!"s vex me. I'm sure Sylvain is prob gonna make a puzz that solves, so I gave it a go.



after initial line logic runs out...

el/iel in r10 dots enough to place the "20" clue completely. lots of line logic...

el in r15 (whether it be any of the "3" clues) dots r15,c20-21. lots more line logic...

el the 20's in c10 and c31 to dot r's33-35 in both of their respective columns. more line logic.

At this point, you have most of the puzzle done. keep working the edges with el and iel. I started to list some ways to narrow it down, but I'm retiring from the comp to make some chow. Y'all can finish it off. I'm sure it doesn't need deep look-ahead though. and if you assume symmetry, (which ofc you can) this puzz is simple without going through all the adv logic steps. 'night gang

{el the 4's in c11 and c30 to dot r31 and r37 in both columns}

{el/iel places dots in c12 and c13, r's28-30. the same logic on the opposite side to dot c28 and c29, r's28-30}
{el both 5's in r45 to place dots r45, c's11-12, 29-30.}

When both sides are exactly symmetrical, you can put the middle columns in and the rest solves easily.
