Difficult, but rewarding when I finally finished it. Nice image!#14: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Jun 28, 2014
el, iel...and an instance of deep look-ahead to keep it going. easy to see where it was going though. not "brain-busting" as it was rated though. nice image!#15: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Oct 7, 2016
Delightful image. Very tough puzzle. I had to guess.#16: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Nov 30, 2016
solved again, real hard#17: Velma Warren (Shiro) on Jan 22, 2019
Fun solve.#18: Emimonster (emimonster) on Sep 10, 2023 [HINT]
I was stuck at about 43% and then I EL with some deep look ahead to see that the 2 in C3 couldn't go below the blacks in R15/16#19: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Sep 15, 2023
At 86% I used EL with deep look ahead to start placing the 3 in C29.
Now I'm stuck at about 87%
it does solve. not easily or without deep-lookahead. but it does. look harder#20: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Sep 19, 2023
I think Adam depended heavily on picture logic. And at the time, most solvers didn't seem to have any trouble figuring them out.
