4'33"
(Published on 21. June 2026, 00:14 by juggler)
Place a 4 and two 3s in every row, column, and Cage.
The rest of the grid should be left blank.
UPDATE: The original solution code instructions were blank, and the correct solution code was also blank, as a tribute to the piece of music the puzzle is named after. I thought this was fun and easily guessable (after all, just follow the solution code instructions), but many solvers disagreed and were quite annoyed. So I've replaced it with a traditional, humorless solution code. Sorry about that.
Solution code: Column 1 followed by column 2 (no spaces)

I worked at this for a very long time. Once I got it everything fell into place.

Fun puzzle! Wish I'd done it before the solution code was changed though XD <3

It's amusing that the annoyance at the previous solution code mirrors some responses to the original 4'33"!
Lovely puzzle and tribute. A 273 second moment of silence for the previous solution code.

Updated solution code, by popular demand

Fun puzzle. (Though I disagree with the sudoku tag - felt much more like a star battle variant than a sudoku variant to me)
Looking up the song, I understand why the solution code is the way it is, but I still really don't like it. Solution codes exist for a reason.

For those struggling with the solution code and don’t understand the title/theming: look up the John cage song of the same title

What am I missing with the solution code?

Thank you very much for creating and sharing another lovely and unusual puzzle. Though I must admit that I needed definitely more than 4‘33‘‘ … And I cannot imagine what the solution code may be.

Put "very nice" in the rating dropdown box.
The difficulty dropdown box is intentionally left blank.

Cage. Got it.

That was great! The solution code is ... weird, though. Which I guess makes sense, given the theme of the puzzle. (Oh, I guess maybe the joke went totally over my head.)
