The first batch of Hashimoto puzzles is ready (and there are many more puzzles available).
I have entered 103 puzzles, with captions and difficulty level, but without “wrong answer”-sequences and explanations. Checked and double checked them and hopefully not too many mistakes are left in this collection.
The entering of puzzles in the Puzzle section is a tedious routine task, and it is very easy to make mistakes.
The puzzles vary in difficulty between 15-5 k (but this is only my opinion).
One characteristic of Hashimoto’s puzzles is that he only gives the bare minimal solution. Sometimes he claims a group is alive. When you doubt this, you can play on and see for yourself.
Two puzzles for the price of one. Isn’t that nice?
Enjoy & if you have feedback … well, you know where to find me
I rated the puzzles. I could very well (and probably will) be wrong about it.
In these collections I only assign three ratings from my point of view (circa 10k): hard (5k), medium (10k) and easy (15k).
Are all moves that fulfill the objective (ie. to live, to kill etc.) correct? Or are there some that work but are marked incorrect because they lose points, leave bad aji etc.?
