You Must Consider EVERY Possibility to Solve These Puzzles - Understand

Understand Part 3 - it's not about where you draw your line, it's about where you DON'T draw your line. I've got to find some crazy rule sets in the hardest world yet, and then use them to solve some ridiculously challenging puzzles!

"What if this was a witness segregation puzzle" - Tyler 2021

[@snappyhere1824]

It’s a lot like the witnesses puzzels

[@Graverman]

also “dodge thought minorities” and “sextion” Tyler out of context is gold

[@iantaakalla8180]

As of Level 8, there were Witness-styled segregation puzzles

@Fadzli Hafizi Yes but the rules change every world (level?)

[@user-zn4pw5nk2v]

@Fadzli Hafizi you where talking of different objects being "level" A:stage(screen) B: classical level/(also heard it called stage) C:world

[@Jtak-qu5hk]

Have you played it?

[@dusterthefirst]

Looking at the map of all the puzzles, each group has its own color and then a square that is not a puzzle but some sort of symbol. I think the symbol represents the greater theme. With this one the big theme was separation and the groups created by the line and the symbol to me looks like an abstract way of showing that.

[@notquitehadouken]

i think all the #-? levels just have some wack ass gimmick because we've had: the grid is a joke multiverse synchrony and all is push

[@dusterthefirst]

@@notquitehadouken I’m not talking about the ? Levels. Those seem to have their own theme. I’m talking about the whole level group as a whole.

I absolutely love that Witness reference for the pairing puzzle at the end. They literally introduce the mechanic with the very same shape they use to mark that mechanic in the Witness

[@Domigan6]

When you mentioned the witness I realized something. Similar to the witness each area has a theme, and each section has a hint on the world map to its theme. World one has two connected shapes, and each level is about connecting specific shapes. World 2 has three different sets of shapes in increasing numbers and is about counting using different shapes as numbers. World 3 has a line separating shapes, and every solution involves segregating shapes or creating sections with shapes in them.

[@batmantet]

Is it just me or is it satisfying to see Tyler learn the different rules per section

[@WaterDroplet02]

3-10 is literally the stars from the Witness, and 3-? is Room to Grow (with the stars from the Witness)

[@KusaneHexaku]

I feel the game was getting pretty sus when it introduces the stars as a shape that exist in the game earlier, I knew it HAD to come up at some point. 's great.

I want to see a neural network bust this game open

[@sethost2548]

@CodeBullet

[@tim..indeed]

I'm certain it would fail horribly, it just doesn't have enough data for each level to be able to solve the last one without brute forcing. It can't think abstract like us humans who will realize the rules after a bit but instead think overcomplicated and never get to the answer unless it had more data.

[@areadenial2343]

Yeah, for example that prime number puzzle would be tricky for a neural network to solve. Most humans know about prime numbers if they've learned basic math, and will quickly spot the pattern in that puzzle while for a neural network it might be much harder to figure out from scratch.

[@chandlermooring417]

I love that all of the "worlds" have a theme that they tend to stick to. It seems like the world "Icon" tries to hint at the theme as well, which is a very nice touch.

[@ladyravendale1]

Is anyone going to tell him that the non-level shape on the map shows the main idea of that color group?

Did someone mention the fact that the symbol that appears with each new section tell you a general rule for that section.

[@greatsageclok-roo9013]

Tyler, I'm not sure how much of this you have played so far... But I think the fancy patterns on the "map" that are of the same colours as the "world" you are in hint you towards what type of rule you are playing with.

[@ralfred2009]

This game destroys my brain and I love it

[@stevenharris19901990]

I like how you sort through your logic. It kinda reminds me of cracking the cryptic. The cover some great sudoku variants I think you’d have a good mind for. I’d love to see you logic through a star battle puzzle

What we've learned from Understand: Sometimes, "show, don't tell" isn't good.

[@dumbcarbattery5916]

I disagree. This is proof "Show, don't tell" is amazing!

[@not_vinkami]

No matter if "show, don't tell" is good or not, it is satisfying if you understand

[@robinlindgren6429]

vehemently disagree. this game, much like the witness, is a master class in tutorials. at no point in either game does anything ever explain any part of the puzzle solving with words or even with symbols outside of the puzzles themselves, and yet the player learns increasingly advanced concepts that build on each other over and over and over again. if you think this game is confusing to learn the rules then I'm pretty sure you either have not played the game (youtube tyler edits out large parts of the learning process, so understanding the patterns only through watching the video and trying to figure it out before tyler reveals it on video is not realistic) or don't understand the premise of inductive reasoning.

"I know the rules, but you do not!"

[@DiegoGarcia-bd3wr]

World 4 is really fun I’m so excited for that video

[@elementgermanium]

I think 3-1's rule was that you have to get every square that's between a circle and square, even if the gap is larger than one square. So for 3-1-4 it'd be both the squares in the 2-wide gaps, and for 3-1-5 it'd be the ones between them diagonally.

[@Cloiss_]

I thought this as well, but based on the rest of the world it's clearly just a segregation puzzle

[@christmaspudding7856]

On world 3-5 you only need to start on a circle and end on a circle, you don't need to hit every circle. In the first level of that world clicking on just the circle solved the puzzle even though there was another circle you didn't touch.
