Square Count. A&D has 3 squares. B & E 2 each. But IB has AB, DE.


Include 3x3/4x4/ and so on. With the image shown above for A, 3x3 and above isn't possible but it is for D, B and E (and C has many squares).


Just noting to anyone viewing this point of the forum - Practice links posted on page 1.

in B3, As easy as ABC (numbers) judging from the solution after "Letters ’x’ and numbers ’n’ outside the grid indicate that ’x’ is the ’n’th letter in that row or column" you should specify "looking from that point of view" (or similar wording). otherwise it's ambiguous

"Players submitting all 35 puzzles correctly are eligible for bonus points."

How much are the bonus points?

"Answer key: Enter the first three shapes seen along the marked rows & columns. (– if not enough shapes). For the example the answer key is OL-, Z--, OT-, LSI"

Since the tetromino bank doesn't have any S, I suppose the S in the fourth answer should have been Z?

@forcolin
It is not ambiguous; if the letters and numbers are given on the left of grid, it is implied that it should be looked from left to right, same for numbers given at bottom, top and right of the grid.

Bonus = 7 points per minute. Will be updated tomorrow.

Yup, Z, not S. Will also be updated tomorrow.

Thanks Swaroop and another basic question may be..How do the letter act as clues or how do we fit the words in a full tapa ?

Letters are not part of Tapa Clues. Letters even don't represent Tapa shading cells.
Words should not block the Tapa Connectivity.

Answering that general question is difficult, if you are having troubles in solving any particular puzzle or stuck at any particular step, then post that, We would be happy to help you .
