Hmm.. good point. I didn't really consider brute force to be viable. Is it actually necessary on some of the harder puzzles? Or can they be deduced solely using logic and without 'guessing'?


I'm not positive because I don't really play the puzzles a lot. But i think some of them require mentally filling in a space and seeing if it leads to a contradiction.
