It shows you what the exit routes are, what your score will be, and you can move the gates around as long as you want, so the means of finding the maximum area are entirely within your grasp.

- ryanjshaw 10mo agoI believe that’s the point. I had the optimal solution for some time but was convinced there was something better. Eventually I submitted, and seeing the perfect score was more thrilling after convincing myself I was an idiot.
- butlike 10mo agoIf it told you how close you were then you could just brute force your way to a perfect score every board by trying each square.
- sceptic123 10mo agoBut if you remember the best score isn't that approach still possible?
