A hand made no-3-at-all-dice. A little hint of a 3 is just mysterious. Like it was made of Your own Low budget Moriarty. I, for one, think it is awesome! A hand made no-3-at-all-dice.

Yeah right try hiring a designer that understands free to play. It's damn near impossible. I have heard the argument that “anyone can be a designer”

HA! Yeah right try hiring a designer that understands free to play. It’s damn near impossible.

#1, did you consider the lengths? :)

Each of the numbers end up in either the top/bottom/left/right part of the bigger square. Using C, you also get lines that start end well, but without that last piece of symmetry. #3, I spent some time at this one trying to reorder all pieces to create a unified pipe with no borders and that didn't touch the edges of the bigger square. I ignored rotation as that would make the problem to complex. I never succeeded doing finding a 4x4 combination that had a single pipe, but I while trying to, I discovered which edge-pieces were missing to even make it remotely possible. Yeah, I'm very much looking forward to that game as well. #1, Using D, You have 4 lines, each starting with a block and ending with a unique number.

Each step involves two operations where rotation is one. Out of curiosity. How did you solve #3? Yeah, I'm also thinking about that at times. Having high hopes "The Witness" will capture some of that, but we'll see. @Jens: What kind of symmetry do you see in #1?

For #1, C was also an option, but I thought D was more symmetrical. #2 was less sure about, and I can't figure out a reason for it being anyone of the others. #3 I'm pretty sure I didn't solve it the way you planned, but I was fairly certain it was correct.
