#125: S-Policy — "I of the Cyclops"
3 November 2023Unsurprisingly, I’m not the first to come up with this theme but I’m very happy with how clean both theme and solve path turned out. The “X” is… uh… a specular reflection off the eyeball. Or dirt.
If you’re confused by the genre name, it’s just Tetrominous on a hex grid, named after the set of available shapes.
Solve it online:
Rules: Divide the grid into regions of four connected cells so that no two regions of the same shape share an edge, counting rotations and reflections as the same. Clued cells must belong to a region with the tetrahex shape associated with that letter.
Edges marked with an X cannot separate two regions.
