[TSL][S1T2] We're going on a journey
(Eingestellt am 22. Dezember 2024, 00:41 Uhr von FischmitFahrrad)
The competition took place in a total of 7 turns with a unique prompt for each round. Setter's had to create and test a unique puzzle for each prompt solely by themselves.
As of the prompt for Turn 2 of TSL the goal was to create a puzzle based off of the song and it's video "The Boy" by Tom Rosenthal. Listening to the song/watching the video is not necessary for the puzzle itself. Link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj34nSnxg6c
Normal Fillomino rules apply.
Digits from 1 to 9 only. Divide the grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells, and place the region size in each cell of those regions. Regions of the same size can't share an edge.
Cells separated by a white dot have to be consecutive, cells separated by a black dot are in 1:x ratio with x being the digit given within the black dot.
Digits in dashed cages must not repeat and sum to the digit in the top-left corner, if given
Cells that are marked with the same motive must contain the same digits. E.g. every cell that contains blades of grass has to contain the same digit.
Each digit has to be represented by at least one motive
Dynamic Fog:
The grid is covered by fog. Entering correct digits into the grid will lift the fog. There are certain trigger points which unlock a new section of the puzzle. No guessing is required.
Due to the size of the grid and the given task having a lot of cosmetics in the grid, I'd recommend solving on PC rather than phone. You can zoom in and drag the grid around, if you activate "Test Large Puzzle UI" in the settings of sudokupad.

Lösungscode: Digits represented by the following motive (in that order): Polar Bears, Moon, Ship, Yellow Rose, Sheep, Wolves

Why is a 2* puzzle solved so few times
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I see two reasons for that:
Due to the size of the grid, this is regardless of difficulty no fast solve. Which is something I guess most people look for in easier puzzles.
On the other hand this is a more creative puzzle than logically completely sound.
And lastly I can add, that -while I tried to have each step in that difficulty class- I already got feedback that there are a few steps more difficult than that.
So especially if you're not familiar with fillomino it's more 3-4 stars.

this was a very nice and pretty puzzle. The yellow rose was some nice logic. Would love to see more in the same style.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed the solve!
Would enjoy setting more puzzles with this style. But this was also a challenge for me what's possible in sudokumaker. Not sure when I will have the motivation to spend as much time drawing pixels again :)

Es war sehr schwer für mich zu entscheiden, welche Zellen zum gleichen Motiv gehören, z.B. dass alle Ballon-Zellen zusammengehören, außer die mit dem Kopf des roten Mannes(?). Oder dass die Zellen mit den 6 Pixeln oberhalb der Bären nicht zum Bären gehören.
Bei den Wölfen musste ich raten. Ich hätte das für Mäuse gehalten.
Aber ansonsten eine sehr kreative Rätselidee!

Da stimme ich dir zu, dass die Motive nicht vollkommen logisch eindeutig sind. Ich habe versucht, das durch einfache Logikschritte (z.B. Kropki über den Bären verhindert, dass das Feld noch dazu gehört) oder dadurch wie der Nebel aufgedeckt wird, um deutlich zu machen, mit welchen Motiven weiter gemacht werden muss.
Da ich das ganze komplett in Sudokumaker gemalt habe, ist die Auflösung leider auf 10x10 pixel beschränkt, da sind einige Motive nicht ganz so einfach umzusetzen.
Ich denke aber auch, auf der Suche nach Wölfen, kommt man dann schnell darauf, dass das die "Mäuse" sein müssen :)
Danke dir für das lösen und das Feedback!
