Cube Chaos

(Eingestellt am 25. Juni 2026, 19:03 Uhr von mellowrobinson)

This was made for a speed setting competition over on the CTC Fan Discord, which called for a 3D puzzle. A big thank you to IkeManga, Fryguy, yttrio, and NicoD for hosting and judging all the wonderful puzzles! Also thanks to Chinstrap for advice to refine the presentation.

I thought the 3D region building was fun, so I was happy to later find another great puzzle on the portal with the same cube rules. Do give it a try!

4x4x4 Chaos:

  • The grid is a 4x4x4 cube. The layers are stacked as shown by the dashed lines (without rotation). Fill every cell with a digit from 1-8 so digits don't repeat in the x, y, or z axis.
  • Divide the grid into eight orthogonally connected regions, each containing the digits 1-8 without repeats.

Internal X-Sums:
  • The digit in a circle counts the number of cells of its own region that it 'sees' in all three directions, including itself, where other regions and the edge of the cube blocks vision.
  • A number clue indicates the sum of such seen cells, if given.
  • Note: Conflict checker works and can help with scanning between layers.

Lösungscode: From the "front" layer only (bottom right 4x4 grid), the digits in the region occupying the most cells. western reading order.

Fantastically mind-bendy

What a delightful puzzle. I did go wrong a couple of times as I missed possible 3D extensions of the regions but managed to untangle and get there eventually!

Great fun! Though my brain truly struggled to trace the 3D regions

Such a fun and unique idea executed beautifully. Thank you for sharing! I had a great time solving :)

Wow. Very very nice!
I think 3 star difficulty is appropriate. The deductions are not too hard but the 3d scanning of the grid just takes its time.
Thanks a lot!

This was very deserving of the gold medal it got in the SSC! A really nice extension of a relatively simple constraint into the 3rd dimension.
