Featured Puzzle: Kin-Kon-Kan #1 – Time to Reflect
The final day of the year is typically a time of reflection. Naturally, that calls for a puzzle about reflecting things! This is Kin-Kon-Kan, a puzzle about placing mirrors. Draw a diagonal line in only one cell within each region.
- Each region must contain one and only one diagonal mirror in a single cell.
- Identical letter-number pairs outside the grid must be connected by lasers, though you needn’t draw them in the solution.
- The number in the pair indicates how many times that laser bounces off a mirror.
- Each bounce reflects a laser 90 degrees.
- Every mirror must reflect at least one laser beam.

The actual solution only needs the mirrors. I wanted to show it with the lasers as well, so you can see the paths. I’m torn though, because it might look a little too busy. What do you think?
