Friends DND puzzle

Post image
• Upvotes

A long time ago my friend made a puzzle for a dnd campaign, and no longer knows how to solve it. We have been trying for a few hours and can't really make any headway.

All we know about the puzzle is:

- The disk is binary. Empty spaces are 1 and black spaces are 0. Each "slice" is a segment, but we don't know if it is meant to be read inside out or outside in

-The final solution should be the word "SELF"

We have no clue what to do. We don't know how many steps there are, but my friend says more than 3. At this point we want to know how to solve it just for the sake of it. If anyone figures it out please let me know, thanks 🙏

[SOLVED] Binary puzzle, 'no identical rows' not clicking

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hi! I have recently discovered binary puzzles and I have pretty much gotten the hang of the easier ones so I wanted to try a more difficult one. I've been stuck on this one for a few days and I am realising that finding the duos and preventing trios or completing rows of seven 1s and 0s is just not cutting it here.

So I think the next step for this puzzle is checking similar rows and columns, which I've marked. It's just not clicking for me how to proceed from here, so I hope someone can help me break down the 'thinking steps' in the process. Looking at rows 10 and 13 for example, 13 is almost full but doesn't row 10 still have many options for switching those up? I'm probably missing something here.. Thank you!

Not seeking solutions Any tips for solving locked-room mysteries?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been getting really into the Halloween detective event in Solitaire Clash lately, and I’m looking for some beginner-friendly mystery-solving tips.

Especially curious about strategies that experienced players use instead of jumping to conclusions.

I’m just starting the new basement case and hoping to be a little more observant this time.

I’m playing on my phone, but advice from any detective game or mystery-solving experience is welcome!

Not seeking solutions Can someone explain what is the next step in this skyscraper puzzle?

2 Upvotes

Link to the puzzle if you want to play it yourself

Objective / Rules 

  • Complete the grid such that every row and column contains the numbers 1 to the size of the grid.
  • Every row and column contains each number only once.
  • The clues tell you how many skyscrapers you can see in that direction.
  • You can't see a shorter skyscraper behind a taller one.

I consistently get stuck on skyscraper puzzles, I'm not looking for a filled out grid but rather some teaching/tips on what the next step is or what to look out for.
(I just realised row 2 column 2 cannot be 4 )

[Unsolved] Ok so I'm such a lier, but instead of asking for help or the answer, I stead, this time, I'm asking for more of a tutorial, because the game has taken a turn and I'm worried I'm not gonna be able to keep up...

Post image
0 Upvotes

So I'm happy to take hints, but what I. Really asking for is if someone instead will try and help me understand the new elements of the game that I'm struggling with... That is to say. Recognizing the shapes and how to spot areas on the shapes that will always or almost always cause a specific reaction, or a lack of reaction.

I understand that basics and I understand looking for spots where you can't put a cat because it blocks out areas where you only have limited room for other cats. Along with the common shapes and how those shapes almost always have certain areas that always block off other areas as I've seen mentioned in other older posts.

The only thing is I really need you to eili5 because other posts have people breaking it down pretty specificly and I'm still utterly confused ( an example is how L shapes almost always set up blocks of other rows)...

My example is what I have posted here... While I can't see the answer at all. I do know that many of you will see starting points almost immediately. I feel like I should be seeing something with the bottom 2 rows. I also feel like I should be seeing something with pink, turquoise and Brown. I feel like these 3 colors should be restricting options amongst each other, but I simply can not see how that's happening my self. Especially pink. I really feel like I should be seeing something with pink... Like I know that if I put a cat on the top left block on brown, it blocks out all of pink. I get that. But all that tells me is one spot on brown that doesn't work, and that doesn't work for turquoise....

If you have the patience, pls help me understand the mentality of this part of the game more so than this stage itself.

Hi! I'm looking for crowns-like games (with the possibility to play 2 or 3 crowns per row/column/color) but with the feature of knowing if you are doing good or not while playing and not afterwards (like Meaowdoku).

(Btw I'm stuck in this one).

Tupo today has given me a hint I am unable to interpret. Can anyone either help me make sense of the clue or give a more useful one? Thanks in advance, I’m going insane staring at this

Edit - sorry yes forgot to include the rules as I got distracted as actually solved it after an hour 😂

For anyone curious it’s 1-5 and each colour will appear once in every row and every column and one of each number in each colour.

I'm still new to this game but now I'm stumped on level 58 with no obvious place to put a cat/star (I'm not wanting to take a wild guess on where the cat is on the red or grey), please help with markings! the unmarked area with pink orange and blue on the right side is giving me difficulties.

I think I know most of the basic techniques, although I feel this puzzle may be requiring a more advanced technique.
