How to Solve Zoodoku Level 118 — Full Solution

  1. Place the first animal at r6c3 in the isolated brown cell; its row and lower-left diagonal immediately narrow the board.
  2. Place the second animal at r4c2 in the purple pocket, using the new X corridor around r6c3.
  3. Place the third animal at r5c5 in the burgundy middle stair; leave lower red-error r8c4 untouched.
  4. Place the fourth animal at r1c4 in the orange upper band; the later red r3c4 tap is not this placement.
  5. Place the fifth animal at r7c1 in the blue-gray lower-left block after the center placements free the left column.
  6. Place the sixth animal at r3c8 on the green right edge, preserving the top-right column for the final yellow move.
  7. Place the seventh animal at r8c7 in the light-green lower-right pocket after the green edge has propagated its Xs.
  8. Finish at r2c6 in the yellow upper-right band and confirm the source's Excellent completion state with one heart remaining.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Do not tap r8c4: it becomes the first red error and costs a heart.
  • Do not tap r3c4 after r1c4: it becomes the second red error and is not part of the source order.

Quick Tips for Zoodoku Level 118 (quick clues)

  • Start r6c3 -> r4c2 -> r5c5 -> r1c4 -> r7c1, then take r3c8 -> r8c7 -> r2c6.
  • Keep both red cells, r8c4 and r3c4, out of the solve; red Xs are errors, not propagated white exclusions.
Board notes 5 details
Layout
The 8x8 opening has no seeded animal or X mark: orange spans the upper-left and center, yellow fills the upper-right, green marks the right edge, blue-gray fills the lower-left, purple is the r4c2 pocket, burgundy forms the middle/lower stair, brown is the r6c3 singleton, and light-green closes the lower-right.
Goal
Reproduce the exact order r6c3, r4c2, r5c5, r1c4, r7c1, r3c8, r8c7, and r2c6, then confirm the Excellent finish.
Opening
The first frame is unseeded and has no visible Xs. The first five successful placements are r6c3, r4c2, r5c5, r1c4, and r7c1; legal taps then propagate white row, column, and diagonal Xs.
Danger Zone
Red-error r8c4 appears first in the lower burgundy lane, followed by red-error r3c4 in the orange middle band. Both cost hearts and are excluded from the successful route.
Mechanics
This is the shard's only 8x8 board: isolated brown and purple pockets force the opening, then the route crosses the blue-gray lower-left and green right edge before closing the yellow top-right.
