Taca: What happens if a row/column with a Tapa clue to be placed is full? Or such row/column may not be full? I don't get the point; is this a question about rules or are we discussing some possibilities? Edited by yureklis 2016-12-17 12:33 AM | ||||||||||||||||||

Posts: 241 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : Indonesia | chaotic_iak posted @ 2016-12-17 3:12 AM For Taca, yes, talking about rules. The clue on right/bottom of the grid is placed "on the first empty square". I suppose that means there must be an empty square, aka the row/column may not be fully black? | ||||||||||||||||||

Thanks for the puzzles Serkan. I think the first Taca is broken though, which is frustrating since I wasted valuable time trying to solve it. EDIT: I see now that the rules were incorrect for Taca. Edited by ghirsch 2016-12-25 2:52 PM | ||||||||||||||||||
