divide
Divide every figure with the limited number of cuts (the first symbol) into the required number of pieces (the second symbol) in this puzzler by Kongregate.
Anyway, played the first 15 or so rounds before getting bored. It's a nice concept, but it's so damn easy. Most of the puzzles don't even need all of the cuts -- I had to keep going back and making LESS efficient moves to make it happy.
Perhaps games should have options for progressing to higher levels more quickly, in case one is finding it easy.
The requirement to make an exact number of pieces does add to the challenge in some of the numbered piece levels, making one divide the outer blocks a lot without much carving up a central block, with the limited number of slices.
First!

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you finally have something you can be proud of, Mary.

ReplyDeleteYeah, it's way too easy, and if you solve it without using all of the cuts, you have to go back and create fewer pieces so you can use all the cuts.
ReplyDeleteIt does get more interesting at level 21, where the blocks have numbers indicating how many times they are to be cut.
I love it, it's not about the minimal number of cuts PK, it's about making the number of requested cuts.
ReplyDeleteFinished. The last few were a little trickier, but still pretty easy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! - I enjoyed it a lot! :-)
ReplyDeleteGood game. Should be played using the start over from scratch button only---I think.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bart
links not working. darn this old computer.
ReplyDeleteok reached level 15 and got bored! it's nice but mostly solved by luck
ReplyDeleteWas simple but a good time filler. Should have added the piece requirement sooner.

Finished! I enjoyed it and especially appreciated the END :)
ReplyDeleteIf you want to play a real game look up Ice Breaker. there at least 3 now.
ReplyDeleteLiked it a lot. Easy time waster :) Thanks, Bart, for posting!
