Elisabeth Daily subscriber Rated puzzle: Easy Completion time: 9:49 Used 'check puzzle' when incorrect
Except for the bottom right-hand corner, JoergWausW, and I'm not exactly a beginner!! I had to solve by trial and error not being able to see more than one step ahead, or did I miss something?:) Perhaps I should have rated it Moderate.
On further thought perhaps I should have looked at the 2s more, I was obsessed with the 3s and 5s

Elisabeth, for the bottom right bottom the 2 is crucial, because it's surrounded by several 5 - which one of the three 5s can't be white? You can figure that out if you think about what has to be black and whether that's possible. This way you find one of these 5s that has to be black. Same applies to a couple of 4s in the bottom left.

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'.
