Flamingo Croquet - Olli in Wonderland Part 4
(Published on 11. May 2026, 04:52 by NotSoMagnifique)
To be able to finally get home, Olli had to meet up with Her Majesty the Queen of Hearts for a game of croquet - naturally, they played the classic way, with flamingo mallets and hedgehog croquet balls! Olli won by a hair, and made it back home in time for his lunchtime sudoku break.
On a more serious note, this marks my 100th upload to LMD! I'm proud to have this century of puzzles finish out with something I made for someone I respect and consider a great influence on our community. I can't wait to see what comes next as sudoku and its variants continue to evolve.
