Puzzle Notes

Dear friends:

Today's midi, "Cast Aside," by roster member Zoey Foley, is a themed puzzle with an unusually sized 7x16 grid. We think you'll find it smooth and fun with occasional twists and turns — just try not to fall, please.

Zoey says: "This puzzle's theme was inspired by something that happened to me twice, exactly one year apart. I have some stories I could tell, but I'll just say none of the theme entries were involved. I had fun tackling the design for this grid with its unusual dimensions and constraints, and I'm glad it has a home with Lil AVCX."

Headed to your inbox tomorrow from Lil AVCX: another midi by roster member Faren Roth.

Happy puzzling!

Your friends at Lil AVCX
