Featured Puzzle: Galaxies #2

ByJacob Valdez

It’s a starry night, and the sky is filled with galaxies. In this puzzle, divide the grid into irregular regions with a galaxy at the exact center.

  • All regions possess exactly one galaxy, which is placed at their exact center.
  • Each region is 180-degree rotationally symmetrical. That is, if you rotate the region 180 degrees around the galaxy, it will look exactly the same.
  • You must use all cells in the grid.

This form was popularized under the trademarked name Strimko, which was invented in 2008 by the Grabarchuk family. They’re similar to Jigsaw Sudoku puzzles, with jumbled regions, except they are not necessarily orthogonally contiguous.

Featured Puzzle: Sukaku #1

Sukaku is an interesting variant of Sudoku. Rather than the standard format of revealing a few known numbers, you are instead given pencilmarks. As a matter of fact, another name for this puzzle is Pencilmark Sudoku. Otherwise, normal Sudoku rules apply. Fill the grid with 1-9 in such a way that no row, column, or 3×3 region contains a duplicate.
