Magic snail and Doppelblock puzzles were really nice and interesting. High pointers Hashi and Skyscraper puzzles were tough. Spent lot of time in that high pointer skyscraper and missed other easy ones. Overall the set, although tough, was nice.

I thought the Hungarian Snail highlighted every third number reading from the snail :/
I should've read the instructions better.

Thanks for the puzzles Salih!
I couldn't solve the last dominoes in 10 minutes... grr! X(

In the Doppleblock puzzles just checking if two darkened blocks can be adjacent - in those rows and columns where the sum is NOT given on the edge.

Not necessarily. Other clues may in some cases force the darkened blocks to be adjacent.

Round 4 of Puzzle Ramayan 2016/17 is over. Congratulations to top three solvers Kota, Hideaki and Nikola, as well as Indian top three solvers Rajesh, Rohan and Swaroop.

LMI website has always been a corner I visit at least once every day. I enjoyed too many contests on this website. I am happy to prepare a puzzle round here and I hope you all enjoyed while solving this round.

Hashi and doppelblock sets are the two sets most solvers liked, as I can see in this forum thread. I prepared some doppelblock puzzles previously, but those were the first hashi puzzles I ever prepared. :)

I thank to Serkan and Kamer for test solving. Also, thanks to LMI for giving me this opportunity of preparing a puzzle contest and also for helping in the preparation of the contest.
