Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Orange is the seeded singleton r1c1. Purple covers r1c2-r1c6, r2c1-r2c4, and r3c1-r3c2. Cyan-blue occupies the upper-right and right-side lanes: r1c7-r1c8, r2c5-r2c8, r3c4-r3c8, r4c6-r4c7, r5c6-r5c8, r6c6 and r6c8, r7c7-r7c8, and r8c7-r8c8. Yellow covers r3c3, r4c1-r4c5, r5c4-r5c5, r6c3-r6c5, r7c3-r7c6, and r8c5-r8c6. Slate-blue covers r5c1-r5c3, r6c1-r6c2, r7c1-r7c2, and r8c1-r8c3. Brown is r4c8, pink is r6c7, and green is r8c4.
- Goal
- Keep r1c1, then fill the pink, brown, green, purple, slate-blue, yellow, and cyan-blue territories at r6c7, r4c8, r8c4, r2c3, r7c2, r5c5, and r3c6.
- Opening
- Only the orange cat at r1c1 is seeded; no opening X marks are visible before the first player tap, and all three hearts are full. The source later shows red errors at r3c2, r5c4, r5c2, and r3c5; these should be omitted from a clean solve.
- Danger Zone
- The four source probes r3c2, r5c4, r5c2, and r3c5 are red errors. The correct purple, slate-blue, and cyan-blue landings are r2c3, r7c2, and r3c6.
- Mechanics
- This 8x8 board has eight total territories, one opening anchor, three singleton targets, a large connected cyan-blue lane, and four visible red-error examples before the two-heart Unbelievable finish at 82.3%.
