2. Four Wnds (28 Ponts) [Serkan Yrekl]
Draw one or more horzontal lnes from each numbered square. Lnes cannot cross other numbered squares. Each number
ndcates how many squares are connected by ts lnes; the numbered squares themselves are not counted. No lnes
overlap or ntersect each other, and each empty square s covered by exactly one lne.
Answer: For each desgnated row, enter the number
connected to each square n that row, from left to rght.
Example Answer: 562593, 555593
1. Hundred (30 Ponts) [Salh Alan]
A grd of 9 cells s gven, each of whch contans a gven dgt. Place at most one (addtonal) dgt n each cell (ether before
or after the gven dgt), so that the sum of the three numbers n each row and column s 100. A two-dgt number may not
start wth a zero (although a sngle-dgt number may).
Answer: Enter all the dgts you placed. Frst the top
row from left to rght, then the mddle row from left
to rght, then the bottom row from left to rght.

Put a letter nto each empty square so that each consecutve group of horzontal
or vertcal squares contans one of the words n the word lst, readng across or
down. Each word n the word lst s used at most once, and two words wll not be
used at all.

4. Cave (17 Ponts) [Serkan Yrekl]
Shade some cells to leave behnd a sngle connected group the cave wth no enclosed,
shaded cells. In other words, all shaded cells must be connected by other shaded cells to an edge
of the grd. All numbered cells must be a part of the cave, wth each number ndcatng the total
count of cells connected vertcally and horzontally to the numbered cell ncludng the cell tself.
(Both the area nsde the cave and the areas outsde the cave are allowed to have 22 sub-areas.)
Answer: For each desgnated row, enter the length n cells of each of the cave segments (not the
shaded cells outsde the cave) from left to rght. Use only the last dgt for two dgt numbers; e.g.,
use '0' for a segment of length 10. If there are no cells belongng to the cave n the row, enter
a sngle dgt '0'.
Example Answer: 22, 4

5. Pentomnous (28 Ponts) [Serkan Yrekl]
Dvde the grd nto pentomnoes so that same-shaped pentomnoes cannot share an
edge. Each pentomno can contan at most one letter, representng the shape of the
pentomno. Pentomnoes can be rotated and/or refected (but refectons and rotatons
of the same pentomno cannot touch each other).
Answer: Enter the letter assocated wth the pentomno each crcle s n, readng the
crcles from left to rght. (Ignore whch row the crcles are n.)

Place ether 0, 1, or 2 mnes nto each blank cell so
that each number represents the total count of
mnes n all neghborng cells, ncludng dagonally
adjacent cells.
Answer: For each cell n the marked rows,
enter the number of mnes (0, 1, or 2) for each cell.
Enter 0 f the cell has a number n t.

7. Blackout Math (7+16 Ponts) [Serkan Yrekl]
Black out 2 of the squares so that the remanng equaton s true. The standard order of operatons s used: multplcaton
and dvson are done before addton and subtracton. Numbers wth more than one dgt cannot start wth 0.
Answer: Enter the letters of the black cells n alphabetcal order.
Example Answer: EH

9. Statue Park (7 Ponts) [Murat Can Tonta]
A bank of shapes s gven wth the grd. Place each of the shapes exactly once nto the grd, wth rotatons and refectons
allowed. No two shapes can overlap or be orthogonally adjacent, and all of the space not occuped by shapes must be
connected. Black crcles n the grd represent spaces that
must be contaned n one of the shapes, and whte crcles
represent spaces that may not be contaned n a shape.
Answer: Answer: For each desgnated row, enter the length
n cells of each of the shaded segments from left to rght.

8. Four Snals (8 Ponts) [Serkan Yrekl]
Wrte the names (bold letters) from the lst along the snals, n the
order from outsde towards the mddle. The same letter can not
appear more than once wthn each row and column. A - ndcates
that there s no letter n the cell. Some letters are already gven.
Answer: For each marked row, enter ts contents.
Use X for an empty cell.

10. Place by Product (51 Ponts) [Murat Can Tonta]
Place each of the ndcated shapes nto the grd (allowng rotatons and refectons) so that
no two shapes touch even at a corner. Numbers outsde the grd ndcate the product of the
lengths of all whte cell groups n that row/column.
Answer: For each desgnated row, enter the number of cells n each group
(both black and whte), from left to rght. Use only the last dgt for two-dgt
numbers; e.g., use '0' for a group of sze 10.

11. Easy As ABC (38 Ponts) [Serkan Yrekl]
Place letters T, U, R, K, E, Y (A, B, C n the example) n the cells, so that each letter appears exactly
once n each row and column. Each cell must have at most one letter, but can be empty.
Clues outsde the grd ndcate the frst letter n the respectve row or column, seen from that
drecton. Cells marked wth an '' cannot contan a letter.
Answer: For each desgnated row, enter ts contents. Use X for an empty cell.

12. Thermo-Skyscrapers (47 Ponts) [Salh Alan]
Place the dgts 1 through 8 nto the empty squares (one per square) so that each dgt appears exactly once n each row
and column.
Normal Skyscrapers rules apply: each number outsde the grd ndcates how many buldngs can be "seen" from
ts poston at the end of the correspondng row or column, where each number nsde the grd represents the heght of a
buldng. Larger numbers wll block the vew of smaller numbers.
The numbers n each thermometer-shaped regon must be strctly ncreasng from the crcular bulb to the end. Some
thermometers may overlapthe thermometer constrant must be satsfed for each path from a bulb to the end of a path.

Addtonally, a thermometer may nclude space outsde the grd. Each such space n the thermo-
meter must be flled wth a number that smultaneously satsfes the thermometer constrant and
serves as a skyscraper clue. (Note that equal numbers wthn a thermometer s not allowed.)
Answer: For each marked row, enter the contents nsde the grd. Ignore any
skyscraper clues outsde the grd.

13. Fllomno (39 Ponts) [Hatce Esra Aydemr]
Dvde the grd along the dotted lnes nto regons called polyomnoes so that no two polyomnoes wth the same area
share an edge. Insde some cells are numbers; each number must represent the area of the polyomno t belongs to.
A polyomno may contan zero, one, or more of the gven numbers. (It s possble for a hdden polyomno a polyomno
wthout any of the gven numbers to contan a value
that s not present n the startng grd, such as a 6 n a puzzle
wth only 1-5 clues.)
Answer: Enter the sze of the polyomno each crcle s n, readng the crcles from
left to rght. (Ignore whch row the crcles are n.) Use only the last dgt for two-dgt
numbers; e.g., use '0' for a polyomno of sze 10.

14. Tapa (38 Ponts) [Hatce Esra Aydemr]
Shade some empty cells black to create a sngle connected wall. Numbers n a cell ndcate the length of consecutve
shaded blocks n the neghborng cells. If there s more than one number n a cell, then there must be at least one
whte (unshaded) cell between the black cell groups. Cells wth numbers cannot be shaded, and the
shaded cells cannot form a 22 square anywhere n the grd.
Answer: For each desgnated row, enter the length n cells of each of the shaded
segments from left to rght. Use only the last dgt for two dgt numbers; e.g., use
'0' for a segment of sze 10. If there are no black cells n the row, enter a sngle dgt '0'.

15. Crystal Mne (12 Ponts) [Salh Alan]
Some cells n the grd contan a crystal. Draw a path from the entrance arrow to the ext arrow, travellng orthogonally
through the centers of the cells. The path must travel through every cell wth a crystal, but must not vst all four cells of any
22 subsquare n the grd.
Answer: For each desgnated row, enter ts contents, usng O for a cell used by the path (ncludng cells wth crystals) and X
for a cell not used by the path.
