Chaos Construction: Arachne
(Eingestellt am 24. September 2022, 08:20 Uhr von tesseralis)
Inspired by KNT's Ariadne, I wanted to try my hand at the same ruleset and have created the following puzzle. Enjoy!
Rules
Place the digits 1-9 in each row, column, and region. Each region is a set of 9 orthogonally connected cells.A digit in a clued cell indicates the number of cells seen in the indicated directions combined (including itself). Region borders obstruct vision.
Lösungscode: Column 5 followed by row 9

Super line of sight puzzle ! A very original way to use that ruleset, with a surprising apparent lack of short range possibilities in the arrows at the beginning, which is quite unusual for that kind of puzzle ! I can confirm that there is a non-bifurcative logical way of solving this ! Thanks :)

Very weird puzzle, but quite intricate in a good way.

Finished this, then came back again to find the intended break-in, which turned out to be very funny. I can testify that the opening logic doesn't require casework (*). 10/10 would solve again.
(*) kind of. it's possible to write in 5-6 digits before any casework happens.

Very intricate, but the opening is so complicated I don't see how a mortal could avoid bifurcation and "see it all in their head".

hmm, there's actually a pretty elegant way of determining the opening. feel free to figure it out or DM me if you're stuck ~tess

Very nice, I liked how smoothly the regions resolved in the later stages of the solve with very few clues.

thank you magnus! ~tess

very nice. Beautiful symmetrical design to create chaos. thanks.

heh, it wasn't intended to be symmetrical until i realized it was :P ~tess

It is a very good ruleset, and I certainly enjoyed this puzzle :)

it always makes me happy to see my puzzles serve as inspiration for others, this was very fun, and not too difficult after the opening logic :)

heh, thanks for the inspiration (and the thorough roasting of the previous version to get it to a solvable state) ~tess
