I think "Menderbug and I" misrepresents how much we each contributed to this. @amicableanimal.bsky.social did all the hard work and I made a few puzzles. :) Regardless: yay we made a game!

6Γ—6 Diamond Chain Solve a Diamond Chain puzzle, size 6Γ—6.

I haven't really been keeping up with the 6x6 puzzles for new genres of pzprxs lately. But today's genre is one of mine! So not only did I make a 6x6 puzzle: pzprxs.vercel.app/p?diamond/6/... I also put a few bigger ones on blog: brokensign.com/puzzle/2025/...

There are non-rhotic German accents, so you can skip some of them! Sadly, that won't help you with BrΓΆtchen.

I tried to become an Obsidian sicko one and a half years ago and set everything up. A couple months later, SyncThing stopped working on my phone and I have not yet found the motivation to fix it (and am now reluctant to use Obsidian because it's not syncing to my phone...).

You've reminded me of Eressea, a game I haven't thought about in years. I looked it into it and it's still running (for almost 30 years now)!

A new yajilin-esque genre on pzprxs: pzprxs.vercel.app/p?retsurin/b...
The 6x6 ended up not using the genre's most interesting rule, so I made an 8x8 as well:
