Link to original post : Alternating Liars Masyu

Today’s puzzle is the second in an apparent series; that is, a series of not-quite-symmetrically clued Masyu variants. Here’s the first one, and it’s probably the harder of the two, at least if you’re trying to prove uniqueness. I quite like these both, which is why I’m publishing them in their faulty-symmetric glory. There’s also […]

Link to original post : Double LITS

Whoops, sorry for the break in posting. University and whatnot. Here’s a LITS variant: every region has two tetrominoes, instead of one. Other puzzles of this type seem to not allow tetrominoes in the same region to touch each other, but that restriction isn’t at play here. (click for full size) Rules: Shade some cells […]

Link to original post : Statue Creek

Keeping in line with this week’s theme on the GMPuzzles blog, here’s another pentomino-based puzzle. Compared to today’s State Park variant, this is probably the easier of the two. As you may guess, it’s a hybrid of Statue Park and Creek. (click for full size) Rules: Shade some cells (60, to be exact) to form the […]

Link to original post : Skyscrapers

I realised I haven’t made a single vanilla Skyscrapers, so here’s one. Rules: Fill the grid with numbers from 1 to 6 such that no number repeats within a row or column. The grid represents a top-down view of a city. A number in a cell represents a skyscraper of that height. A skyscraper blocks […]

Link to original post : Kuromasu Yajilin

This one is a hybrid of Yajilin and Kuromasu (aka Kurodoko). It ended up a bit odd (the first iteration turned out to be broken, and fixing it altered the solving path), but I like it. Reminds me of my Crypto Regional Yajilin, actually. Rules: Draw a loop passing through some of the cells, and […]

Link to original post : Pearl Pentominous

I’ve been wanting to make a Pentominous puzzle for a while, and this is the result. The puzzle has a shift in difficulty towards the end, and that’s because I wanted to stick to the theme, and got bored searching through the alternatives. I like it as it is, though. I wouldn’t be surprised if […]

Link to original post : Outside Nurikabe

This is already the fourth one of these I’ve made, which I consider a feat given how many of my puzzles tend to be one-shot variations. Rules: Unlike in regular Nurikabe, the clue numbers have been placed outside the grid. A clue will appear in the first unshaded cell in its row/column, counting from the […]
