Puzzle Panel was a light hearted, though cerebral BBC Radio 4 panel game that was broadcast between 1998 and 2005. It was written and presented by puzzle columnist for The Guardian , Chris Maslanka . In each half hour programme, the panellists brought along one puzzle with which to test the mental mettle of the other two panellists and their host. Essentially, it was just for fun and no points were scored. Another puzzle, the Panel Beater, was contributed by a listener. A prize was available for solving a competition puzzle. Programme format During the opening introduction, Chris Maslanka would present a few short puzzles for the listeners and panellists to work on during the course of the programme. He would then introduce the three panellists, and invite each in turn to present a puzzle to the others. Each panellist would present a different type of puzzle. In general, one would be a numerical puzzle, one would be literal i.e. a word puzzle and one would be a logic puzzle. Interwoven between these puzzles, Chris would invite the panellists to solve the puzzles from the introduction, present the Panel Beater puzzle, and read out correspondence from the listeners. The Listener s Puzzle would be set at the end of the programme. On some occasions, this would involve a short play with the parts played by the members of the panel.

In contrast to rearrangement puzzles, however, transport puzzles have all persons and objects follow certain routes given on the board they cannot be lifted off the board and placed on faraway positions that have no visible connection to the from position.

Types of transport puzzles Tour puzzle s are first person transport puzzles the player does the tour him herself or is represented by a player character on the board. labyrinth s player runs one convoluted path way, no dead ends. maze s player runs fixed set of pathways, many dead ends. Sokoban type puzzles player pushes objects into place. other first person transport puzzles. Some of them are elimination puzzle s these are similar to Sokoban type puzzles, but you have to eliminate pieces on the way rather than pushing them around. Other transport games The player is not represented in the game. cube puzzle s move little cubes around the board. sliding puzzle s slide pieces on a board into place. The fifteen puzzle is the best known example of these. train shunting puzzle s move trains and carriages along tracks. river crossing puzzle s move a set of pieces across a river using a bridge or boat.

Image atsumari puzzle.svg right thumb 300px A simple Atsumari puzzle and solution. Atsumari lang ja translates as collection , meeting , or cluster is a binary determination puzzle that was originally developed by Quadratic Games for the iPhone platform. The puzzle is played on a hexagonal grid. A rectangular board shape is standard but variations to the board shape can be part of the puzzle design. The puzzle starts with a subset of the hexagonal cells containing a number greater than or equal to zero. The solution to the puzzle is a unique pattern of black white hexagonal cells that does not violate any of the puzzle rules. Rules Each cell containing a non zero number is considered white and must be part of an edge connected cluster of exactly that many white cells including the numbered cell . The white clusters are enclosed by black cells or the edge of the board. Thus, a cell containing a 1 must be enclosed by black cells and or the game board, a cell containing a 2 must have one edge connected neighboring white cell, etc. White clusters cannot contain more than one number. A cell containing the number 0 is considered black. The black cells of the board including the 0 cells must form a single edge connected cluster. A black cell cannot be surrounded by black cells. This is equivalent to saying that the black 7 cell hexagon shape is not allowed. Related puzzles Atsumari is similar to the puzzle Nurikabe based on a square grid published by Nikoli .

Orphan date February 2009 Unreferenced date November 2007 A snapper is a hoax mechanical puzzle consisting of a pointed piece attached to a notched dowel and a hollow block with a secondary hole along its length through which a rubber band is stretched across the shaft and tied off. A demonstrator inserts the dowel into the hollow block, hooks the rubber band on the notch, pulls on the pointed end, and allows the dowel to snap back into place. The demonstrator hands the puzzle to an observer who cannot hook the rubber band onto the dowel s notch. The demonstrator takes the puzzle back and makes it snap immediately. The trick is that the ends of the dowel are tapered so that the demonstrator can squeeze the fingers holding it together, causing it to snap into the block. Deleted image removed Image plastic snapper.jpg frame A variation constructed from plastic. Construction Traditionally made of wood, contemporary varieties come in plastic or metal for enhanced durability.
