Double Mirrored Gallery (new puzzle type)
(Published on 23. January 2021, 21:05 by Aspartagcus)
This is a variant of a very new puzzle type, called Mirrored Gallery, created by Conflux on the Cracking the Cryptic Discord server. The original type has numbers in the regions, and one dashed line, instead of two. (If you're interested, here are a couple of links:
Puzzle 1,
Puzzle 2.)
RULES:
- Each letter represents a unique number.
- Place stars so that each region contains as many stars as the number of that region.
- Stars can't be adjacent to each other, not even diagonally.
- Each star must be mirrored over each dashed line to another star, or itself.
A couple of examples:
And this is the puzzle:
Enjoy!
Link to solve it online:
Penpa+ (with answer check, using white stars)
Solution code: For each row with at least one star, write the number of the row, followed by the numbers of the columns in which there are stars in that row.
E.g., for the examples, the solution codes would be:
1st: 113313 (1st row stars in columns 1 and 3, 3rd row stars in columns 1 and 3)
2nd: 213
