I really enjoyed this one. Lots of clever logic and a nice design packed into a 6×6 puzzle.
Sorry for the off-topic post, but I couldn’t let the day go by without mentioning the world’s best puzzle writer, Martin Garden, who was born exactly one hundred years ago today. I would not be where I am today without Martin Gardner. He was that rare soul who saw both the beauty and fun in math puzzles like these.
Martin Garden? I’m trying to think of a clever joke based on Marven Gardens being the only misspelled property in Monopoly, but I’m too tired.
Ugh, sorry.
