Oops guess who forgot again and has to go to work soon. Anticipating that this will happen again tomorrow, I'll do a much larger post about this on Day 5, as I'll have a day off then. Regardless, today's genre is Cocktail Lamp!

I think I'm going to stay with this style for the month. Small puzzles without any crazy hard deductions, but still with a few tricks here and there. My Day 1 got seen by a lot more than I was expecting, and I'd like to keep having these puzzles be approachable to a larger audience!

As always, here is the solving link

Hey all! I'm going to do a larger post about this tomorrow, but I'm very low on time today so I'm just gonna get it out. A puzzle friend of mine has found 25 puzzle genres that they think could use some more love. I'll be matching their journey and setting one in each genre every day until Dec. 25th. Today's genre is Ant Mill!

I only spent about 10 minutes reading the rules and writing this puzzle, so I don't have a great feel for the genre yet. That being said, I do like what I have seen! I'm a big fan of dominion, which has a similar rule of connecting dominoes. It's a surprisingly constrictive rule set.

Haven't posted in a while. Some combination of being busy, not liking what I've tried making, and overall burnout.

Part of that busyness is that I got a job at an escape room! Seeing how most people interact with puzzles, I tried making a puzzle intro that could fit on a sheet of paper. I used the company's logo as inspiration, and had a friend who was unfamiliar with logic puzzles try it and give feedback. This is how I came up with hints that would be most useful to a beginner.

But this is my first time making something like this! I'm open to any design feedback! I'm not really sure what's a good tool to use so I just used google docs.

While this intended to be something that could be printed out, if you want to solve these sloops, here is the main one and here is the example.
