Man that pazzle is something else, and believe me when I say I’m a pazzle guy. ---

BFS would be better in this case ---

it took me some time. I found the radio waves even more tricky. 🙂 ---

Very satisfying! Can be actually solved without much guesswork (by enhancing solving method with more rules), but it’s terribly easy to make little mistakes that require starting from scratch… ---

i just did the maze, there was some guessing to do there ---

This one was amazing. Kept having to let it sit and come back. And then of course my kids accidentally deleted some of my progress… But, got it in the end! ---

By far the hardest one of them all. It took me 2 days to solve it 😓 . Keep 'em coming! ---

Have you tried working backwards? Like see which arrows could possibly connect to a number, instead of where that numbers arrows are directing. ---

I gave in to the dark ways of bifurcation on this one as I must have missed some tiny bit of logic which could have kept me going (unless bifurcation is necessary, which, in a good puzzle, shouldn’t be the case). After manually going through every possibility for a 10 digit long path, the rest of it fell together very neatly. ---

I am still not able to crack the current puzzle. This may be the toughest yet for me. The Radio Waves puzzle was a quite easy for me, but the current one is on another level for me. I guess I have to skip it. Hope the next one coming tomorrow will be easier. ---

Ok, I’ll bite - so what you’re saying is that you’re the one that should go to space because you’re more “deserving” of it than everyone else, based on the rating of your own making, while everyone else “is in it for the money”? Interesting take, please enlighten me more. ---

Honestly, I think that most of the people (including me as well) competing here for the grand prize would choose the $130K cash option instead of the Space Perspective flight, if he/she wins. Because $130K is not a joke, of course a significant portion of it will be taxed depending on which country you live in. But cash option is an instant reward (kind of) compared to the space flight which if I am not wrong, if you win and if you choose the space flight, you get to fly not sooner than the year 2026, if you go by the Space Perspective Youtube videos and the Space Perspective website. All that being said, if one goes through the Space Perspective website (which I did out of curiosity), probably he/she may choose the space flight instead, because it will be a once in a lifetime experience which will stay with you forever. Can’t say the same thing about any sum of money. ---

Hi! I finally solved the arrow maze and got a 6 letter word, but when i input into the website it says incorrect!? Is the answer the 6 letter word from the puzzle or is it a clue for the answer? Did i miss something? I solved the maze numbers 1 to 64 and it makes sense… Any suggestions? ---

The answer is a 6 letter word. Make sure you followed the instructions correctly (subtract 26/52 from numbers that are \> 26) and that you’re following the Greek alphabet correctly. ---

Almost got it but the puzzle expired, so there’s no sense to continue to solve that last part. I might go back and solve it later just out of curiosity ---
