This genre idea developed when playing around with Maxi Loop puzzles and discovering how areas sometimes have very little options for the loop to run through and disallowing a certain value would also force the loop a certain way. This eventually led to the attempt to make puzzles with only disallowed values. And a new genre is born.
The puzzle is a bit tricky, but it's partly caused because the way of thinking is different than normal.
Nice.I didnt try it with hands yet.the moment i saw the opening in the top-left ,i started doing it orally and it works smooth- the clues have these hidden values:4,5,and so on.
ReplyDeleteIt was one of the easiest.Very impressive variation,and i liked how you used the 1-clues here.This puzzle had plenty of pointers and i enjoyed it a lot.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I found it quite hard. Interesting variation.
ReplyDeleteThanks, that's how I felt.
