Masyu with a full loop constraint is ridiculously powerful. A little too powerful, sometimes. This grid is antisymmetric but there's still good logic to be had here! (Though part of that is also due to the ... very large hole in the center of the grid. Unfortunately, 169 is odd.)
Rules: Classic Masyu rules apply. Additionally, the loop must pass through all cells.
Breaking from the usual numbering system on my blog to dump the puzzles I made for PANFOPCWHTTAPA! This was a contest I and a few other constructors from the CTC Discord created over the past month or so; these puzzles were intended for beginners, and I think we succeeded for the most part.
Wednesday's puzzle was a 2.5 star Masyu. I found this one to be quite difficult to solve logically -- I broke it a few times before finding my mistake, and there were quite a few instances of trial and error in the solve. This means that, as usual, the difficulty may be off on this one (especially considering that loop genres that aren't Yajilin are not really my strength). However, I really like the theme here, and some of the logic is neat, too. Enjoy 🙂
Have a Masyu puzzle. This is the first time I've tried to achieve clue symmetry for a vanilla puzzle in this genre, so getting this to work was more annoying than expected. Hence the sea of white.
