ziggymole Daily subscriber Rated puzzle: Hard Completion time: 34:36 Used 'valid marks' Used 'auto remove' Used 'show invalid' Used 'check puzzle' when incorrect
After going through all the clues and removing all invalid numbers I still couldn't find a place to start with this puzzle and ended up guessing. Very difficult!

Elisabeth Daily subscriber Rated puzzle: Moderate Completion time: 47:24
I had some problem too, ziggymole, until I realised, that since in brown/yellow twelve had to contain 1 and 2, also in yellow 3=1+2, then 1 and 2 had to be in the odd cells in the pink region and since the rest of the pink region totalled 37, then these 3 had to be 1,2 and 5. With the 7=1+2+4 just below I was able to fix these three. Then I was able gradually to move out from there. Probably other ways of starting but that was what I came up with. Hope this makes sense, difficult to describe!:)

Key

  • A yellow/light blue highlight in the time distribution charts highlights your time, where relevant.
  • Rating scores out of 10.0 show the average difficulty rating chosen by users, where 1.0 is "Easy" and 10.0 is "Hard".
  • If a puzzle is opened more than once, including by loading from a saved position, then this is potentially a significant aid so it is listed as being completed with 'multiple sessions' for the purpose of the best time/average rating displays above.
  • Minor aid is defined as no more than one use of 'Check solution' when incomplete and/or no more than one use of 'Check solution' when wrong; and/or using highlighting aids (show repeated digits, show broken inequalities and show valid/invalid placements [slitherlink] only). Major aid is any and all other use of the solving aids except for 'show wrong'.
