Sealed Fate
(Published on 15. August 2022, 05:55 by Xendari)
Quite a while ago, I stumbled upon a really interesting piece of arrow logic, and I ended up using it in puzzle 2 of Dwarf Warfare, my 6x6 arrow pack. I knew the break-in had more potential, but I struggled immensely to incorporate it in a solvable 9x9 grid. At 11pm a few nights ago, something clicked, and I realised how I could continue it nicely - naturally, I scribbled it down to return to the next day. I'm quite pleased with what that culminated in. I hope you enjoy Sealed Fate :)

Thank you for your comment and feedback antiknight! I think we talked briefly about the opening logic in May, so I’m happy I could turn it into a puzzle that you liked :)

An intricate puzzle with a very cool solve path. Though looked obvious at first, the initial idea wasn't easy to continue from there and it stayed interesting till the very aha moment in the mid solve. Thank you for making me smile at the end :)
