I don't track my solving steps, so there may have been a little lookahead. Challenging solve, but I'm certain that there's no guessing at all, despite the current solvability rating.#2: Philip (Philip) on Jan 20, 2023 [HINT]
And Belita, your image is gorgeous, as always. Thank you.
Beautiful image.#3: Belita (belita) on Jan 20, 2023
Here's how I solved it:
LL to 78%
2-way on 2 in C21 (R12 or 14 is black):
C22R15 is white
C23R13,15-17 is white
C24R16-17 is white, C24R28 is black
LL
2-way on 2 in C24 (R13 or 15 is black):
C25R12,14,16-17 is white
C27R6-8,18-19,21,25-27 is white
LL to finish
I really fought with this to make it solvable, and I think I got it there, with some edge logic, but I could be wrong. I hope the picture is worth the effort.#4: Jota (jota) on Jan 21, 2023
Awesome picture. I didn't guess, but I also didn't track my steps.#5: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jan 22, 2023
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by wombatilim.#6: Jane Butcher (jane-o) on Jan 27, 2023
Wow! I only live about a 20 minute walk from there. I've never been inside, I'll have to do that. Thanks!#7: Belita (belita) on Jan 28, 2023
