Four-bidden

Moderately difficult Place an X or

an O in each empty cell of this grid so

there are no four consecutive Xs or

Os appearing horizontally, vertically

or diagonally. There’s only one solu-

tion. Can you find it?

Complete the Cube

Difficult If you fold up the large yellow

shape, you can almost make a cube,

but the small piece off to the side will

be missing. There are three possible

places where you could attach that

triangle to the shape in order to com-

plete the cube. Can you determine at

least one of them?

First In

Moderately Difficult Place the letters A,

B, C and D into this grid so that each letter

appears exactly once in each row and col-

umn, with one cell in each row and column

left blank. Each letter outside the grid indi-

cates the letter that must appear first in its

respective row or column (reading inward

from the edge of the grid closest to the

letter and skipping any blank cells).
