That one was really stressful.

i thought you were around zug’s rank?

Not in the slightest.
I’ve played long enough to have a good intuitive sense for positions, but I am bad at not blundering pieces/responding to my opponents’ threats.

I am pausing Sudokuvania whenever I do other puzzles.
[Thermomonster finished in 33:15] I could have sworn I have done this puzzle in the past before. Also, apparently I finished this puzzle before I found the Boss Cell. Whoops. Oh well, I figured out where it was in the end.

[Status update Sudokuvania 115:48] I think I have spent too much time trying to solve Quarters. I can’t find the Boss Cell, and I think that the key of solving it will be that yellow circle that decides whether the R7C7 of that 9x9 is a [4] or a [8].

[Disassembly Line finished in 39:12] Again, I could’ve sworn I have done this puzzle before. Are these all references to past puzzles?

[Status update Sudokuvania 207:38] I thought I had to bifurcate on Factory (and I did, without putting in the numbers), but uh… It turns out Factory is solvable given enough time and insight. No bifurcation was needed, but uh. I am dumb, so I checked out the branches until I filled the entire square. Now… I found the Library, but it says ā€œGrid 5ā€ and I kind of paused on Battlements / Grid 4. …I should probably get back to that. I have now noticed that finishing Factory didn’t help me solve Quarters / Grid 2. I will pause my progress on Battlements until I finish Quarters first. Having finished Factory… I don’t think the orange dot will be of help at all.

[Status update Sudokuvania 223:04] Yeah, no. Quarters cannot be solved as-is. I will continue on Battlements now. [A couple minutes later. . .] It is approaching 3 AM. I’m going to sleep now. Status is… Sudokuvania 265:52 and Skyskitter 17:27, but the latter needs a reset because apparently I suck at Skyscrapers.

once you unlocked factory (and whisper lines) You can(should) check the front gate corridor again.

That took me a while to notice for me, as well.

I noticed it the moment I unlocked it.

At the moment I’m rather struggling to finish Quarters, which… appears to be unsolvable at the moment. (I can’t even find the Boss Cell.)

Even if I skip that, I’m also currently struggling with Battlement’s Boss Level. (I.e., Skyskitter.)

yeah, you need Skyscreeper boss defeated to continue on.
(once you encounter a boss the natural way, it usually needs to be defeated to continue on, and you should be able to solve that puzzle already.)

This kind of language wont be accepted at the forums, please don’t say that word again

Keyword being: ā€œOnceā€.

I cleared Grid 3 before Grid 1 & 2, and now I have become unsure whether my Grid 1 & 2 are correct or not.

You won’t stop me from eating those kind of food, Chomps.

oh that one… I hated that one as well. (even though I usually like skyscraper games)

try to concentrate of the possible numbers on column 1. And row 3/7, and box 6 (More importantly, where you can put the [8]s

yeah, those two are solved quite late in the game.
(if you managaed to reach any other space, without bifurcation, you should be fine.)

Aye. I need a lot of time to brute-force (+ reason) my way out of those. I can’t do it now though, as it’s past 3:30 AM.
