CHECKED LEVEL ANSWER

Chiidoku Level 8 solution

A 5 × 5 board. Match the colored regions below before using these coordinates.

ANSWER · ROWS TOP TO BOTTOM

R1C3, R2C5, R3C1, R4C4, R5C2

Rows count down from the top; columns count from the left. Each dot below represents one character.

Match your layout

12345
1GGPYY
2GGYYB
3GYYYY
4GYYYY
5VVVYY

G = Mint · P = Pink · Y = Yellow · B = Blue · V = Violet

The completed placement

12345
1GGYY
2GGYY
3YYYY
4GYYY
5VVYY

G = Mint · P = Pink · Y = Yellow · B = Blue · V = Violet

Why these squares work

  1. R1C3 — pink

    Pink is a singleton region in the top row.

  2. R2C5 — blue

    Blue is also a singleton, at the right end of row 2.

  3. R3C1 — mint

    Test R4C1 as mint: then violet must be R5C2, touching it diagonally. So mint cannot use row 4. Row 3 has only C1 in mint.

  4. R5C2 — violet

    The bottom violet region offers C1/C2/C3. Columns 1 and 3 are occupied, so C2 remains.

  5. R4C4 — yellow

    Columns 1, 2, 3 and 5 are occupied. Row 4 must take C4.
