How to Solve Zoodoku Level 117 — Full Solution
- Keep the seeded animal at r10c3 as the fixed opening anchor.
- Place the second animal at r2c2 in the orange upper-left pocket; its row and diagonal exclusions open the purple edge.
- Place the third animal at r4c1 on the purple left spine, using the seed and r2c2 exclusions.
- Place the fourth animal at r8c4 in the lower teal lane; do not substitute red-error r5c4.
- Place the fifth animal at r1c5 in the light-green upper-middle strip after the lower anchor placements propagate their Xs.
- Place the sixth animal at r6c6 in the blue-gray center-right block after the lower teal and upper light-green placements have fixed their rows and diagonals.
- Place the seventh animal at r9c9 in the yellow bottom-right pocket, leaving the far-right green lane open.
- Place the eighth animal at r7c8 in the blue-gray right block after the yellow row and column are fixed.
- Finish at r3c7 in the brown upper-right block and confirm the source completion/leaderboard transition.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Orange, Burgundy, Teal, Light-green, Brown, Green, Blue-gray, Yellow
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not tap r5c4: the source marks it red and removes one heart.
- Do not confuse the red r5c4 error with the white Xs propagated from the seeded r10c3 anchor and legal placements.
Quick Tips for Zoodoku Level 117 (quick clues)
- Keep the seed at r10c3, then use r2c2 -> r4c1 -> r8c4 -> r1c5 before returning to the center and right pockets.
- Never substitute red-error r5c4 for the successful teal r8c4 placement.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The 10x10 opening has a seeded animal at r10c3 and no pre-existing Xs. Purple forms the upper-left spine, orange and light-green sit across the upper middle, burgundy makes the inner stair, brown and green occupy the upper/right edge, teal wraps the left and lower-left, blue-gray fills the middle/lower-right field, and yellow closes the bottom-right band.
- Goal
- Keep the seeded r10c3 animal, then reproduce r2c2, r4c1, r8c4, r1c5, r6c6, r9c9, r7c8, and r3c7.
- Opening
- The seed at r10c3 is visible before any action. The first four player placements are r2c2, r4c1, r8c4, and r1c5; white Xs propagate after the seed and each legal placement.
- Danger Zone
- The source taps r5c4 after the r4c1 placement; it becomes a red error X and costs one heart. Leave r5c4 red and use r8c4 for the successful lower teal placement.
- Mechanics
- A fixed lower-left anchor controls the lower teal and upper light-green lanes while the late r6c6, r7c8, and r9c9 placements close the blue-gray and yellow side; red r5c4 remains distinct from white logical Xs.
