Have tried each of your difficult games but you've scraped the bottom of the barrel with almost them all I think. Keep getting very close with Stalactites and feel it MAY be winnable. Will keep going back to them

F.A.O. Nigel Cole,
Have spent several hours at your games and doubt if any of them are winnable.
Sorry,
Richard.

BASTION 843555713 is winnable. Try not to let Ken Blackwell do all the work guys. I'll expect to see solutions when I get back from holiday.

You must be a wizard. I get stuck after the first move. Maybe I am not grasping the rules. The 10s comes down then what is next? No matter what I do next it seems I hit a block.

I must be getting soft in my old age. A spell of weakness from the wizard?
Here's your starter Mike. Perhaps Ken and I will start calling you Sandboy. Wotcha think?

Well done Trisha. I probably gave too much away with Mike's starter though. I wonder how many players did what Mike did and assumed it was unwinnable. It had me fooled for a while too.
See if you can embarrass the boys further by winning one of the other ones I posted recently.
I'd be able to give them even more stick than normal. Yeah!

Thanks Richard but I did not look at Mike's starter.I never look at solutions because I like to solve the games myself.

I'm impressed Trisha! I suspect most players would have missed the opening move entirely. A good reason to disable autoplay.

Well done Trisha. Once again I made a assumption about the rules. Never looked for an alternative play. After Richard said it was solvable I should have tried harder. I don't play with auto play on either. Richard broke me of that along time ago.

I don't believe it. I actually solved one. Bastion #1748006527. Probably not a hard one for the rest of you. But I feel I accomplished something. Hope Richard is having a good time.
