Puzzle 580: The Inner Limits 7
The nestorgames edition of Battle of LITS
has raised 8% of the necessary funding to be published! I'm also
working on raising money offline; the pledges I've received so far (and
plan on collecting within the week) are an additional 9%. Let's hope
that the momentum continues. . . . :)
Rules of The Inner Limits
Monday Mutant 117: The Inner Limits (multiplicative)
In this The Inner Limits puzzle, a number indicates the product of two quantities: the number of cells in an uninterrupted horizontal
line from that cell (up to the nearest edges of the loop, and including
the cell itself), and the number of cells in an uninterrupted vertical line from that cell (up to the nearest edges of the loop, and including
the cell itself). The rules are otherwise unchanged.
Thomas Snyder posted a beautiful puzzle in preparation for the recent United States Puzzle Competition. It is my hope that I have made a puzzle at least as excellent as his.
March Mutant 13: The Inner Limits (total multiples of 3)
In this The Inner Limits puzzle, a multiple of 3 has been placed in every cell which can legally contain one. The rules are otherwise unchanged.
Monday Mutant 70: The Inner Limits / Quad-Wrangle (cipher)
In the The Inner Limits puzzle on the left and in the Quad-Wrangle puzzle on the right, the given numbers have been replaced by letters; all instances of a particular letter represent the same number, but two different letters must represent different numbers. (This applies whether the letters are in the same grid or not.) The rules are otherwise unchanged.
Puzzle 488: The Inner Limits 5
I recently joined BoardGameGeek, and posted a review of Nikoli's card game Camissimo! What does that have to do with the puzzle below? Absolutely nothing.
Puzzle 461: The Inner Limits 4
A new contest will be starting on November 30! What does this puzzle have to do with it? Nothing.
Puzzle 423: The Inner Limits 3
Considering that The Inner Limits was one of the first puzzle types I posted on my old blog, I'm sure it must seem pretty astounding that I've waited this long to bring it here. . .
Rules -- The Inner Limits
The Inner Limits was invented by the Japanese puzzle company Nikoli (under the name Bag, although the name Corral is probably more well-known amongst the global puzzle community).
1. Draw a single loop along the grid lines. The loop may not cross itself or branch off. In other words, the interior of the loop will be a single polygon.
2. Every number must be contained inside the loop.
3. A number indicates how many grid cells, including the cell itself, lie in an uninterrupted horizontal or vertical line from that cell, up to the nearest edges of the loop.
