Sweeping Success
(Published on 20. July 2026, 13:11 by gdc)
An approachable chaos construction. According to testers (thanks everyone), it should be around 1.5-2 stars. Hope you enjoy!
Minesweeper: A digit in a circle counts how many of the (up to 9) surrounding cells are in the same region as that circle, including itself.
Successor Arrows: A digit N on an arrow places the digit N+1 in the cell N steps away in the indicated direction. N+1 must be the first digit in that direction which is in a different region than N.
Solution code: The bottom row, left to right (7 digits).

Beautiful puzzle!! Definitely 2.5* for me. None of the steps was super hard, but there was a lot of looking for where is the next things, especially mid-solve.

Quite enjoyed this, but for me this was more of 3*. I got stuck a couple of times and it took me a good while longer than 2* usually do.
Quite interesting compared to the rest of the comments.

I loved it! Very fun and smooth. 1* for me but still interesting. I also love the white borders on the arrows and the translucent backgrounds of the mines. It really made the coloring satisfying and readable

Approachable and smooth, but with an impressive range of logic mixed in. Very nice!
