Castle Wall Delta #1 (10x10)
(Eingestellt am 22. Mai 2021, 17:38 Uhr von Jesper)
Regeln
Zeichne einen Rundweg durch einige Felder ein, der die Mittelpunkte orthogonal benachbarter Felder verbindet und sich nicht selbst kreuzt. Umrandete und gefärbte Zellen können nicht Teil des Rundwegs sein:
- Schwarze Felder liegen außerhalb des Rundwegs
- Weiße umrandete Felder liegen innerhalb des Rundwegs
- Graue Felder können innerhalb oder außerhalb des Rundwegs liegen
Der Rundweg hat eine Richtung. Es ist Teil des Rätsels, die Richtung zu bestimmen.
Eine Zahl in einem Hinweisfeld entspricht die Summe der Längen aller Rundwegsegmente, die in der Richtung des Hinweisfelds führen, minus die Summe der Längen aller Rundwegssegmente, die in der gegenüberliegende Richtung führen (also, weg vom Hinweisfeld).
Kleiner allgemeiner Hinweis für gerichteten Rundwegen (Bereich in Klammern markieren):
[Die Richtung des Rundwegs am Rand des Gitters kann nicht mal im Uhrzeigersinn sein, und mal gegen den Uhrzeigersinn (dann lässt sich der Rundweg nicht schließen)]
Beispiel:
Das Rätsel folgt:
Penpa+: Castle Wall Delta #1 (10x10)
-------
Lösungscode: Für jede Zeile (von oben nach unten), die Anzahl der Ecken des Rundwegs

Great introduction and amazing setup! Looking forward for #2

Very nice :) Not too difficult if you are a madman like me and solved #2 first before doing this one XD

Awesome puzzle, I'm very happy finally being able to write this one off the list, as I've been bamboozled by this one for a very long time. In the end I think it is only 3/5, but directional loop really is something quite special! Looking forward to struggling with the next one.

Brilliant! Easy to make mistakes at first with such a new ruleset, but a very clean and visible solve path helps a lot in minimizing the trouble that can cause.

Amazing puzzle, tons of fun! Really creative and minimalistic. The break-in was a very interesting insight leading to a smooth mid-solve, and I thought I'd complete it under an hour, but then it seemed that I broke it, spending quite a while agonizing over every step I'd taken. But turns out I didn't break it after all... Anyways, super cool genre you've created here, I'm already getting ideas for variations on this.

That was rather tough, but very fun. An interesting ruleset, and a great puzzle.

Finally understood the way to approach this puzzle after looking at it several times in the past months ! Now onto #2, which is apparently quite a bigger challenge...

great puzzle! I found it very useful to actually put the arrows on the loop since I was constantly making counting errors. otherwise surprisingly approachable.

Lovely!

Very nice minimalistic puzzle, and very inventive ruleset too! The logic doesn't resemble anything I saw before, it felt very satisfying to slowly discover the implications of the rules. I'm really looking forward, and also a bit terrified, to attempt the #2.

There are really a lot of tricks to discover in this puzzle which makes it a delightful journey. Thank you, Jesper!

Challenging variant but features some delightful logic! Very satisfying to solve. Bracing myself for puzzle #2 :)

Very nice puzzle! After solving Castle Wall Delta #2 I just had to try this one. I was surprised how different the solve was. There were some techniques in this one that I never used in #2 and even more so the other way around. This one was also a lot more approachable, I didn't even have to use another software to annotate the grid :D
A very enjoyable solve to this brilliant puzzle!

What a superb idea. For a week or so, I looked at it in confusion, but when I finally understood how to approach it, the solve was actually quite smooth. Still quite tricky to manage everything until the end.
EDIT @Mark Sweep: Thanks, Mark! Great to hear that you gave it another look and were able to discover the way to approach these puzzles :)

Added small general hint about directional loops

Whew... working out a new variant from first principles is always challenging for me, but I'm glad I persevered! Thanks for this fun challenge :)

what a beautiful puzzle

That is some bizarre logic! Very nice and creative.
