Anemones: a 7×7 puzzle to print, with its solution
This Anemones puzzle comes from the same generator as the app, at the Normal level: seven rows, seven columns, the anemones in place and a number on every row and column. It has a single solution, and it can be solved by logic alone, without guessing.
How it is played
- Place clownfish beside the anemones.
- Each anemone needs its own fish in a square sharing a side. Each fish belongs to one anemone, even when beside several.
- Fish go only in squares without an anemone.
- Fish must not touch, even diagonally.
- The numbers show how many fish each row and column needs.
