Last Month's Solution - September 2025
Here's the maze given for last month's Mazelog competition, together with the solution and details of the correct entries.
Diamond Mine (easy)
Start on the diamond at the top and jump to a cell containing a different symbol. From here jump to a new cell containing a symbol that's different from the two previous symbols. You can jump horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
Continue in this way, making sure that the last three symbols you visited are different. However, there's an additional restriction: you may not make a U-turn by jumping straight back in the direction you've just come from.
Find the smallest number of jumps needed to reach the diamond at the bottom.
