Crossword	Date	Comment
Goldfish	30 July 2019, 13:40	bit hard, this one
Bird	30 July 2019, 13:13	Great little puzzle! with no hints and just logic it took me under 10 mins. I've found that one useful technique once you're getting stuck is to look at the corners - if you have a strip of a few tiles along an edge, you can start at the corner and say "is it possible for this strip of tiles to begin in the corner square?" if they can't, then you can put a X in the corner square. Then move outwards - always being careful about what happens in the adjacent rows. Sometimes this technique can put you on the right track
No pasaran!	30 July 2019, 12:58	Didn't see it coming till almost the last tile. Very clever! inspired
The 5 Senses - HEAR (Ear)	30 July 2019, 5:04	enjoyed it
Acorn	30 July 2019, 1:57	nothing wrong or bad about it, but let's just call it an opportunity missed

Pinwheel	29 July 2019, 16:09	Nice puzzle, enjoyed it
Scooter	29 July 2019, 15:16	definitely solvable via logic. 10 mins
Dance	29 July 2019, 13:04	Quite cool in a way. And fun to complete and see th picture gradually reveal
Puppy	29 July 2019, 11:17	A good puzzle. Logic does it
Bird	29 July 2019, 9:54	I agree - hard but solvable. Less than half an hour. And i suspect those are treetops
Bull	29 July 2019, 6:39	A good puzzle
Hedgehog	29 July 2019, 5:44	Excellent challenge. Solvers: don't use hints!
Cowboy	29 July 2019, 5:09	a proper challenge!
Octopus	28 July 2019, 11:36	Logic will do it. No need for hints or guessing. But use the edges to eliminate some possibilities. It's not just about what logically must be; it's also logically about what cannot be
A mouse with a Cup of tea	28 July 2019, 0:15	Another good challenge
Gardening	27 July 2019, 20:32	Good effort - not perfect but ok. under 20 mins
A woman with a stroller	27 July 2019, 17:31	I thought this was a good puzzle. You can solve it using logic alone and no hints (I never use hints). But it does require clarity thought and you have to focus on the correct component to solve it.
Doggie Wants Out	27 July 2019, 14:14	This is a little gem - perfect! 25mins well spent :))

Rose	26 July 2019, 8:08	well done! great little pic
Starfish	26 July 2019, 7:44	Nice puzzle to solve. Quite tricky but completely logical. Interesting image ~ I enjoyed watching it form. well done!
Lobster	26 July 2019, 7:28	tricky ending until you combine a bit of intuition with logic. I think logic alone isn't enough
Charmander	26 July 2019, 7:06	I've no idea what this is!
Parrot	26 July 2019, 6:58	a rather strange picture! Solving it was quite fun~ once you work out what's going on it suddenly becomes easy
Berries	26 July 2019, 6:50	this format not so satisfying

Anastasia Vertinskaya	25 July 2019, 19:31	enjoyed that, and a great picture when complete
Snowdrop	25 July 2019, 13:19	nice image. Takes a while to work it out but it contains no surprises
Jellyfish	25 July 2019, 10:45	a nice little puzzle
Train	25 July 2019, 9:38	i was annoyed that this took me longer than it ought to have done, but to be strictly logical it takes time. Much faster if you resort to intuition
Citrus	24 July 2019, 14:20	I very much enjoyed this one. Completely logical but doesn't feel too repetitive. A satisfying ten minutes
Candy	24 July 2019, 14:05	fun to complete
Cupid	24 July 2019, 13:52	took me a few minutes longer than it should have done - because I overlooked one basic technique that reveals a lot in this instance.
Rosette	24 July 2019, 11:53	The colors may be similar, but that creates more subtle tonality which creates finer pictures. Good effort
Flower	24 July 2019, 11:00	Lovely little puzzle with just the right degree of difficulty. No guessing required, but logic must be rigorous!
Christmas tree ball	24 July 2019, 10:09	seemed easy at first, then suddenly changes! great little puzzle!
Dog	24 July 2019, 8:06	i'm not sure whether i solved this one using logic or by following an assumed convention about the relationship between the inner colour and the surrounding border. However...a nice pic when it's completed
Hamburger	24 July 2019, 7:36	these heavily stylized pics are not my favourite
