Far too many clues.

All relationships must be marked in an XV, so even if you couldn't see the Xs and Vs they'd still be there as invisible anti-X and anti-V clues. So really these puzzles always have about the same number of clues. :)

I have to agree that this is a really easy puzzle. Maybe this pattern of numbers/this solution is not the best choice for an XV if you want a challenge. But after a harder XV two days ago - why not an easy one for a change?

It is unique, as described above - no X/V means no sum to 10/5.

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'.
