My first, a 5x5, in 3:08
It was fun, but on the edge of annoying, which seems appropriate.
- mkoryak 4y agomy first 5x5 I couldn't solve in 4 minutes, then I gave up. This puzzle makes me angry.
- WesleyJohnson 4y ago2:37 for me, and I'm not terribly good at puzzles. I was getting frustrated and then it just kind of clicked. The color changing is incentivizing. I found it fun in general; might have to do a couple more...
- TOMDM 4y agoI finished my first on 1:33, starting from the edge and working in, moving to a different spot when I noticed too much flex was my strategy. Given the authors note in this thread about each puzzle only having one solution probably means I stumbled onto a decent strategy
- swayvil 4y agoYa, the edge is key. So are hexes that have minimal possible positions. I did my second 5 in 3:08 too. Which is weird.
- gereleth 4y agoThis is pretty much how I solve regular puzzles too. I can do most 5x5s in under 20 seconds. Too often did my debugging sessions devolve into puzzle marathons =). Wrap variants are another story as they have no outer edges. Discovering which tile groups give initial clues there is pretty fun too (when the regular puzzles aren't much of a challenge any more).

- Arrath 4y agoI started in the top left corner and worked connections down from there. So far I have a solve yet to take over a minute.
