Thermometer puzzle

Rules: you need to shade cells with mercury starting from the round bulb at the base and moving toward the tip. A thermometer segment can only be filled if every segment before it back to the bulb is also filled, meaning thermometers fill continuously or stay empty. Outside numbers tell you the exact count of filled cells required in each row and column. Cells that have lines over it are always empty thermometers.

Hi! I hope I'm not braking rules of community. I created some printable pdf teacher worksheets, I usually create puzzle collections, but this kind of content really helped me in my school and created long living love for logic puzzles, so I though I should probably create something like this.

But I'm not a teacher so I can't tell are they useful or can become useful if updated. So I would be grateful if you have some spare time and check them out.

So if they are ok feel free to use them if not: Can I make them better? Or do you not see yourself using something like this?

I see this roughly for ages 12+, but It's really hard for me to grasp is this too hard or too easy. It's mix of simple puzzles, some math puzzles, and entry level logic puzzles.

I see I'm not permitted to post a link to them, so I added some images, I will check and add it to comments if permitted by mods.

So any feedback would be helpful!

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I added some teacher resources to my page https://mrbrainprintables.com/teacher-resources

Now I need some feedback on them: Are they useful? Can I make them better? Or do you not see yourself using something like this?

The idea came because these kinds of puzzles really helped me to start thinking a bit more logically in school, but I'm not a teacher, so it's hard for me to say if this is useful. I imagined it as a puzzle set with simple puzzles, a bit of math, and entry-level logic puzzles. I presume this is for ages 12+, but maybe I'm mistaken. It's been too long since I was in school, so I can't really remember when something like this was fun for me 😀

So any feedback would be helpful!

Thanks in advance

Navigate through the maze from the start at the top-left to the end at the bottom-right. To help you reach the goal, you can use portals: entering Portal 1 or Portal 2 will instantly teleport you to its matching pair

Try this Four Winds(or you can find it under Vector) puzzle.

Draw lines from each numbered cell in the four cardinal directions (up, down, left, and right). Through logical deduction, determine whether a line extends in one direction or is split among several directions.

Each number indicates how many cells are occupied by lines extending from that cell. The numbered cell itself is not included in the count.

Lines cannot extend diagonally, cross one another, or pass through other numbered cells.

Edit: Every cell in the end has a line through it

Hi all! It’s already time for a new BrainDrop which has once again dropped and is ready for download!

Place A, B, and C so each letter appears exactly once in every 3+ straight white cell section; all remaining cells stay empty. Each outside clue shows the first non-empty letter visible from that direction. All smaller regions(1 and 2 cells) can contain letters. So in every row and column can be duplicates but black cells reset duplicate rule. So in second row of this puzzle you need to have abc between black cells but first and last cell in that row can be one of the letters or empty.

Open to question, I'm obviously having problem explaining this rules 😀

Fill each outlined region of N cells with the numbers 1 through N exactly once. Equal numbers cannot touch one another horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

I call it a Root System, not mine original puzzle but I can't find the original name.

Rules: Draw straight lines between tree nodes horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

Each numbered node must have exactly that many connections with other nodes.

Lines cannot cross, overlap, pass through other nodes, only ONE connection is posible betweentwo nodes.

Place one tent for every tree. Each tent must be paired with exactly one horizontally or vertically adjacent tree, and each tree must be paired with exactly one tent. Adjacency does not automatically mean pairing: a tree or tent may touch other possible partners. Tents cannot touch, even diagonally.

​

Couldn't find the original name of the puzzle but im calling it The Waypoint Path

Draw one path from the green 1 to the orange 1.

Move to horizontally, vertically, or diagonally adjacent cells while following the repeating sequence 1–2–3–4. Visit every cell exactly once without revisiting or crossing the path.

Is this kind of puzzles fun for you? they are nothing special but there is some fun in the simple rules and after 10..15 triangles it becomes quickly much harder and more fun, at least to me.

It looked to me you enjoyed the classic First Sight(Easy as ABC) puzzle so I decided to share this variant. It's roughly the same level just a bit more complex if you are not used to hexagonal grid.

Place A, B, and C in the hexagonal grid. Every line in each of the three grid directions must contain A, B, and C exactly once, with all other cells empty. Each outside clue gives the first non-empty letter seen from that edge. Because of the grid type there is 1-4 empty spaces depending on the row.

Happy solving!

Shade cells black so every numbered cell sees exactly its stated number of white cells horizontally and vertically, including itself. Numbered cells must remain white. Black cells cannot share an edge, and all white cells must stay connected.

🌴🌞 Today there's no usual Triangle Search. Instead, I'm finally sharing something I've wanted to make for a long time.
