Still didn't get this one. I am really bad at guessing these countries.#2: Steph (bennie11) on Apr 12, 2010 [SPOILER]
Panama! Great Job! : )#3: Gator (Gator) on Jun 30, 2010 [HINT]
This one is a two move look ahead puzzle, but it is not hard to keep in ones head so I'm marking it solvable.#4: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jun 30, 2010
After line logic, look at the 3 clues in row 11. If the 3 clue is placed in R11C10-R11C12, let looking 2 moves ahead, R11C13 would be a dot and R12C13 would be blue. This contradicts column 13, so R11C10 is a dot. The same logic can be applied for R11C20. Likewise the same logic will apply for the red parts. It finishes normally after that.
Found to be logically solvable by Gator.#5: Andrew Schultz (blurglecruncheon) on Dec 29, 2023
Proud to say I got the country on this one! This is a good series, especially with the helper for the bigger ones when we get impatient.
