This set of puzzles took me well over a month to create, when what started out as a joke slowly took form and became reality. I had a lot of fun creating the puzzles in this pack, many of them variants that I had solved but never set before, and then the very rewarding experience of watching several people solve the entire pack over the next few weeks.
