Here's where I'm up to so far. Red lines indicate the path, and solid black lines are walls (ie. I've determined it's impossible for a path to go through).
Did I misread the puzzle? One of the rules states that in the left room, "You must step on every tile in the s-shaped region"...
If so then we can make p + ar(ad)e, but unfortunately I don't think there is such a thing
And also to parade is to present so as to attract attention, not just to attract attention
Although I just realized "exhibit" can be part of the def
Oh I get it
@Ankoganit is this "parade" (exhibit to attract attention) = p (quiet) ad (announcement) included in "art" (modern "are")? Though I think it would have to be the other way round, old/ancient/etc. rather than modern
Wait no never mind I mixed the two up in the explanation
If you play Wordle in hard mode, with unlimited guesses, then you must solve any puzzle eventually. This is true because there are only a finite number of valid five-letter words, and it is not possible to repeat an incorrect guess in hard mode.
What is the longest possible game of Wordle, if unl...
@Jafe Is it valid to pick a target word with repeated letters (e.g. vivid, woozy, mummy) and try all zero-match words before actually starting to solve it?
I actually think it is a good approach to finding maximum
choose a target word, choose the order of letters to lock, search all words that share 0..4 chosen letters with the target word
yellow matches are a bit of a problem, but a yellow for the same letter can only appear at most 4 times (if I interpret the rules correctly), which can be added separately I guess
what seems kinda promising is PRINCIPAL = key where PPAL< = european backing and R = rembrandt's first... but i don't see any way to make up the remaining letters, or indication of them being in the middle
i mean i'm sure i could find an art gallery named INC or NCI or ICN or CNI just because every TLA has a thousand meanings but that just seems like the wrong way to go here
Your goal is to maximize the absolute difference of the numbers marked ?.
(? marks indicate region areas. They may or may not belong in the same region which another number or ?. They may or may not be shaded.)
Answers must prove their claim (and provide a construction).

This too is a Colombian Sudoku by Xavier Castillo. The usual rules apply.
The dots outside the board on top indicate how many cells in the corresponding column or row of that board contain precisely the same digit as is to be found in the same cell of the solved Sudoku below. Additionally, digits...
Thanks. I was looking in Quinapalus hoping against all odds that the word contained "moma", and then I saw the cuff and realized the g + moma was probably it

Since 37 is my favorite integer and Ï is my favorite number, here's another puzzle:
Normal Chocolate Banana rules apply.
Rules:
Paint some of the cells black.
Black cells linked orthogonally must always form a rectangle (or a square).
Non-blacked cells linked orthogonally must not form a rect...
So I've been messing around with the Godot game engine lately and trying to make a puzzle game. I have a very rough version up on itch.io; if anyone wants to playtest and offer feedback, that'd be fantastic
note that it's a very early draft: the title isn't a funny gag or anything, it's literally untitled as of now. I'll flesh out the world and all at some point, for now I'm just looking to make sure the puzzles are fun and/or fair
