02.10.2025 14:57 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Iโve done something similar before, where each player does some very algorithmic min/max type of strategy, just to see how they fair against a real player.
Can confirm itโs really helpful!

I love that I have no idea what the rules are, but I can /tell/ itโs a puzzle.

21.09.2025 02:01 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Oh good, I'm glad you enjoyed it! And yeah, the 1's on the edges do help out a bit. :)
19.09.2025 23:18 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Not surprisingly, it's not the same answer I had, but it works! I do think with enough development, I could have plenty of puzzles with unique solutions too.
Hopefully I can get it worked out enough to put into a game I'm developing!
I like this one because, unlike others I've tried my hand at, this one can be more logically worked out as opposed to trial & error.
I'm kind of envisioning a circuit board that you're trying to repair, where electricity flows from one end to the other or something along those lines. Still vague.
Came up with another kinda interesting #puzzle!
GOAL
Connect all boxes into a single group by drawing lines between them.
RULES
1. The number on each box shows how many lines connect to it.
2. Lines cannot go diagonal.

12.09.2025 22:10 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I hate to say it, but writing your gameโs rules out early (nothing pretty, just getting them down) really helps to show just how complicated the design is.

Right?! Thatโs got to be why the new edition just shortened it to โQuacksโ.
