The answer is [1] [VASELINE].
- the puzzle source This PDF file makes four copies of the puzzle.
- the hint sheet
- flowchart The flowchart we created after a few scouting expeditions.
- box diagram Plan before we added artwork. It involved creating a flowchart and dragging boxes around and around each other until we had a rectangular grid. Originally we wanted all the pieces to be the same size, but that turned out to be impossible.
- jigsaw how we eventually cut out the pieces. Note that during the playest, we had *all* the pieces cut out separately -- it had more than 50 pieces. The playtest teams (understandably) took a very long time to solve that version!
