I've tried this from scratch 4 times now. Even with hints, I've been unable to find a solution. I'm sure it's solvable as some above have mentioned that they've done so, but for me it remains completely unsolvable. Looks like it would be a great puzzle if not for the extremely high difficulty.#14: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on May 5, 2012 [HINT]

Only if you have the information given by the title of the puzzle: there is only one solution.#18: jewel crown (Jewel) on Aug 21, 2019
Given the symmetry of the clues, we know that the mirror image of any solution must be a solution. So if there is only one solution, then it must be symmetric, because it must be its own mirror image.
A wonderful image and once I knew it was symmetric, the solve went nicely#19: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Oct 13, 2020
solved,due to the symmetry#20: AM (adrian) on Jul 7, 2021 [HINT]
