Trichroma Paintomino #5

(Published on 31. March 2026, 22:18 by MaizeGator)

Here is the 5th and final (for now) Trichroma Paintomino puzzle. Thanks to everyone who has solved and/or enjoyed any of these puzzles. The first four can be found here: #1, #2, #3, and #4

RULES:
  • Divide each bold-outlined region into three differently-sized sub-groups of cells. Then, assign one of three colors to each group so that each region contains exactly one group of each color.

  • A digit in a cell indicates the size of that cell’s group.

  • Sub-groups that border one another through a bold region boundary may not be the same color OR the same shape (counting rotations and reflections as the same). For example, two touching S-tetrominos in different configurations is not allowed, but an S-tetromino may touch a T-tetromino.

  • When the colors of the sub-groups for each region are placed in order from largest to smallest, any pair of bordering regions must have a different order.

A complete ruleset demonstration is available here

This was easily the toughest of the series, but still not too tricky. It was really fun judging this for the competition!
