Schedule for Next Week
All the puzzles from last week have been grouped in this PDF.
Next week (including the bonus puzzle for our supporters) will feature just one puzzle style, made by the person we consider the world’s best author of that style: Skyscrapers by Roland Voigt
We will also have a few bonus puzzles throughout the week (and in the coming weeks), which are our favorite recent competition puzzles from Serkan Yürekli. These aren’t really organized by difficulty level, but are also definitely worth checking out.
The puzzle type for this upcoming week is one of my weaker styles, and I still don’t know a lot of the tricks/strategies for solving. Between this and the e-book, I should have a good opportunity to rectify that. I look forward to the learning experience.
The author Roland has recently created a Skyscrapers wiki, where he has detailed every possible trick and strategy…

M-W’s definition of wiki: “a Web site that allows visitors to make changes, contributions, or corrections”
As Inigo Montoya would say. . .
You are right, I am actually misusing the word. Still, you are most welcome to make any suggestions – this project is not meant to be kept private but for the benefit of all Skyscraper puzzle solvers.
Yes, he concedes that he was surprised by the definition of ‘wiki’ in his blog on the subject (PS written in English this year). So it’s a not-quite-wiki.
My view is that everyone that knows at least as much as Roland about Skyscrapers is already able to make changes, contributions, or corrections… 😉
