It is logically solvable, but very hard. Edge logic doesn't do much along the edges - you can't use it to place the bottom six. But once you get some hunks solved, you can use edge logic along some of the edges of the solved regions, sometimes very short edges. You need to be very thorough with your line solving too, there are lots of times when a single non-obvious bit has to be discovered if you are to keep going.#6: derby (Derby) on Sep 1, 2021
A nice one for folks who really want to do hard logic,
I agree. Very good puzzle. I like the fact that it was difficult but still solvable. It was fun and not predictable. Well done.
