Three more Super Hard puzzles completed today, meaning I have just 13 left to do now. There’s still a good chance I might have it completed by the end of the well. Well, a slim chance. Maybe.

With all of the Hard puzzles complete, I had only Super Hard to work through. I managed three of them in double-quick time, mainly as they were all so easy. In fact, one of them (which turned out to be some kind of magic staff) had 6 of the 16 squares completely empty, and 8 of the other 10 could be filled in instantly with no deduction required. That leaves me with just 16 Super Hard puzzles to do, meaning …

Just the one puzzle today, a Super Hard one, which was really quite difficult due to the chequerboard-type nature of so many of the squares. It took about 20 minutes to do, which is forever for one of these puzzles. Anyway, I have 10 Super Hard puzzles complete now, only 20 to go…

I’ve done quite a few more puzzles today, taking my Hard total up to 23, and my Super Hard up to about 6. That should mean the game is roughly 50% done now, I think. Can’t be bothered working it out properly, though.

More puzzles completed today – two more Hard and two more Super Hard. Nothing too taxing, and one of the Hard puzzles was really easy – almost every square was full of rows and columns of the form 10, 8-1, 7-2, 6-3 and 5-4, or were blank. So not Hard at all then.

Completed two more each on Hard and Super Hard. One of each was really easy, with loads of 9 and 10 rows and columns, but the other one of each were both pains having not much in the way of complete or end rows to work from. Got my lowest Super Hard score so far – 88. Rubbishness.

Just two more puzzles today – a Hard and a Super Hard. One of the “squares” in the Super Hard one was a pain – there were not many bits ot fill in, so all the rows and columns were like “2 1 1” or “1 1”, which makes things pretty difficult. Anyway. That’s now 38% of the game complete.

Completed another four Hard puzzles. That makes 14 of them complete (out of 30), but obviously I still have a stack of Super Hard ones left. One of those that I completed today was really, really easy – four of the nine “puzzles” were completely filled in!

Finished another two Hard puzzles this evening. By my reckoning, I’ve completed about 70% of the actual puzzles, but only around 15% of the game (due to the increasing size of Hard and Super Hard puzzles). That’s somewhat daunting, yes?

Just one more puzzle this afternoon. It’s a bit of a slow-going thing now all the Easy and Normal levels are finished. Completed a Hard (3×3) puzzle, which turned out to be a pteradactyl. Of course.

Just one more puzzle completed today – a Super Hard one (which turned out to be a bunch of flowers). It was actually pretty difficult too – lots of patterns like “3-1-1-1” and “2-1-1” which, when both horizontal and vertical, make it hard to figure out. That’s another 16 “squares” off the total, though.

Worked my way through even more puzzles this evening. I’ve now completed all of Normal, as well as 4 on Hard and one on Super Hard. Not that the difficulty has anything to do with the actual difficulty, of course – it’s just how long it takes to finish it, that’s all. Still about 700 “squares” to go, though.

I’ve now completed all of the Easy Mode levels, have done about three on Normal, and four on Hard. Of course, that still barely makes a dent into the grand scheme of things, but at least it’s progress. Almost.

Notice I called it “Puzzle” and not “Logic”. I realised the kana read “puzzle” (literally), and so the website I bought the game from was wrong. Anyway. I’ve not completed all bar four of the Easy Mode puzzles, of which there are 30. Of course, each Normal Mode puzzle is made up of a grid of 2×2 “easy” puzzles, Hard is 3×3, and Super Hard is 4×4. That means that, in total, there are essentially 900 puzzles to complete. And …

Another game that arrived today. Well, collection of games, at any rate: Puzzle de Pon, Dr. Mario, and Yoshi no Cookie. Played all three with my wife this evening. There’s a few problems with running it on PAL Gamecube with Freeloader, in that some of the Japanese text appears as gibberish (no, real gibberish), meaning I can’t read it even if I could understand the Japanese. Puzzle de Pon was probably the best of the three. It has a new …
