    Okay I CAN do it vroy, pretty clever. A great puzzle to revisit, familiar territory after the hours spent on Jeffrey's. Ready for that masterpiece now, awesome. Meanwhile I may look for others like these in the archives.

    Can't do it vroy. This is strange because I would have thought only one general path to solve the original puzzle, yet there must be variations of some heart goals between players. The hole above the teal portal is right along my path and I can't deviate around it. Yet, another test run just now on Genius Cranium and I could have changed 7 particular x-tiles with holes and still got the 154-step solution. STRANGE...so good job with the alternate route, I'll look for it.

      @vroy: "... showing the solution ...": Showing resp. forcing one or a special group of solutions, such shrinking the possibilities.

      @vroy: Good point about holes 'framing' the solution if there are too many. I realized the value of decoys while making a new puzzle in the style of Jeffrey's, soon to be released. I even tried that strategy a bit on TCT 006, with wildcard boxes matching the fragile tiles, though I don't think I'm fooling too many players there, perhaps only briefly.
