ABC Path - Puzzle Logic Game #1

Within the grid you must enter every letter from A to Y. Each letter is next to the previous letter either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The clues around the edge tell you which column, row or diagonal each letter is in.

IF you get REALLY stuck, you can type "help" into the answer box to reveal the letter, however this only works for the four corners or the centre.

Also, your answer must correspond to the yellow box. Use either "Tab" or click to move the yellow box.

Instructions:
 
If A is in the square shown, then B
 
MUST go in one of the 8 squares
 
around it. It also must be in the row,
 
column or diagonal with its letter
 
pointing into it. Which means, in this
 
case, the B must go in the bottom row.

Would really appreciate feedback for this as (a) it took a long time to make, and (b) to see if the instructions are clear enough. Thank you :)

Looks like a lot of hard work to create! The quiz would probably be more challenging if it weren't for JetPunk giving us unlimited guesses for each answer.

Yeah, that aspect really is a bummer. I'm not even sure if there is a way round it at the moment. But I suppose that the logic puzzle itself is not overly difficult once you know what you're doing!

I was going to say the same: I suppose you are not meant to be able to attempt again and again until you get it right and that ruins the game quite a bit. Instructions are clear but perhaps in the example you could also put an arrow and then explain how this affects where B can go. Also, should be "its" letter

Ok, I'll make that change just to clarify things a bit. Also, normally my grammar is good, but I hate the apostrophes of possession and plurals! Thank you for helping out!

I agree with the comments above - great idea, excellent design, but with the ability to have unlimited tries at each box, that takes away the challenge. Perhaps the best bet for now would be to make it more of a speed challenge by reducing the time - I think the "right" amount of challenge for a quiz is to have the time so that about 20% get all 100%. At the moment 80% are getting this quiz all correct, which suggests the current time limit is too generous.

Thank you Jerry for your comment. As the time is at 3:30 right now, what would you suggest would be a good time to allow for now until that feature is added at some point? (hopefully!) I also plan to make more of these, so a good time limit would be crucial, and I'll probably mention somewhere that this is based partially on speed due to the unlimited guesses problem?

I completely missed where the letter could be adjacent on the diagonal and had to re-read a couple of times to understand that. I guess most people understood that immediately but it threw me for a loop. Also agree that removing 30 seconds from the time would be good.

But its also really great to see puzzles like this on JetPunk. I wish I was more creative but I'm a better worker bee than I am an inventor.

Thank you for your kind words. I have already taken 1 minute off the time, the problem is that guessing is quicker than working it out. So I don't want to disadvantage those who work it out properly.

Wonderful quiz, how about a map quiz redesign so you can't cheat? :)

Would be cool to have a quiz editor in this style of puzzle where you have limited guesses

Can you increase the time and clarify the left under the instructions is an example. I only got three with the time.
