** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
Today Simon attempts a puzzle he's wanted to try for a while but has been slightly scared of given its reputation. It's called Numbered Regions, it's the work of the brilliant Jesper Josefsson and the ruleset is absolutely mad. How can this have a solution?!?! Let's see...
Play it at the link below:
app.crackingthecryptic.com/su...
Rules:
Divide the grid into regions, each consisting of nine orthogonally connected cells. Each row, column and region must contain the digits 1 to 9 once each. The digit in the top-left cell of a region (its leftmost cell in its highest row) is its “region number”. All region numbers are different. If a cell with the digit X in a region with the number N contains an arrow, then the cell X steps away in the indicated direction belongs to the region numbered N+1. Not all possible arrows are given.
** NEW CONTENT ON PATREON **
As well as the Phistomefel and Jay Dyer extravaganzas, Simon's solve of Magnus Josefsson's new puzzle Castle Wall Yin Yang #1 is now available as a bonus video. You can play the puzzle at the link below (and the logic-masters link contains an example):

Joining us on Patreon costs as little as $2 a month.
