In Nanro and Summon will scratching correct cells reveal numbers underneath? In Battleships, will scratching reveal ship segments(as in we will know whether it is an end, middle or single cell segment after scratching)? In Dotted Wall, will dots be revealed by scratching? Mainly what I'm asking, will there be a full solution underneath or merely will only the wrong cells be marked as smiley faces (which is a bit mean to put a smiley face there when someone makes an error)?

If Nanro and Summon do reveal the values of digits when the cell is scratched out: will this knowledge ever be required for uniqueness, or is the immediately available information enough for a unique solution?
For Para's question, the answer is there will be a solution hidden underneath, and not just smiley faces. It may be mean or it may be that we want people to take things easy, smile and move to the next puzzle ;)
For MellowMelon's question, the solution once fully revealed must satisfy the puzzle rules, and we cannot comment any further on this topic. |
