Comments on 2013-09-04's Tapa
prasanna16391 commented at 2013-09-04 00:09:32A little difficult to start with. Perhaps I shouldn't have been so stubborn to not use uniqueness logic and actually see where the connectivity breaks. At least I didn't make a mistake on a big puzzle again like the first day.
macherlakumar commented at 2013-09-04 00:19:58Honestly started at a point where I did not deduce any logic to shade it. Solved most of puzzle on guess work and intuition. Too hard puzzle for me, should solve it logically now.
prasanna16391 commented at 2013-09-04 00:25:16Actually I looked back and tried to spot another break-in. Is R3C6 the only break-in? Quite a nice one, but makes it a little narrow. I'll probably have to go and see others' solves and how they've done it.
yureklis commented at 2013-09-04 00:43:22Yes, it is difficult, but some of 35 Tapas must be difficult. This one is one of them. I planned to hide the starting point, I think it's done. You should consider these clues together: R2C5 + R3C7 + R4C6
(This is a clue pattern that I discovered recently
). Then you can complete the puzzle smoothly.
macherlakumar commented at 2013-09-04 00:44:55Just now solved it logically. R3C6 is the break-in
(coincidentally this is where I started R4C7 just diagonal
) where I found the solving path to progress quickly. After that it is all about connectivity.
Brilliantly constructed with more difficulty level.
