BALLOON BOUQUET
The diagram to the left shows the top view of a bunch of balloons. The diagram to the
right is a view from the side, from a direction for you to determine, but one of the
balloons that should be visible has popped (recently enough that none of the other
balloons have been disturbed). Which one?
1 TO 25
Move the numbers from the
outer ring onto the board. Each
number must be placed in one
of the five cells that lie in the
direction indicated by its
chevron. The numbers must
snake together vertically,
horizontally or diagonally so
they link in sequence from 1 to
- (For example, 2 must be
adjacent to both 1 and 3.)
There’s only one solution. Can
you find it?
