Happy 25 puzzles!!


My very first puzzle on this blog was a James Webb Space Telescope-inspired puzzle called Mirror Images. It was a huge undertaking that used hexagons instead of squares for the grid, and the fill was unsurprisingly terrible. I posted it anyway because I thought it was pretty cool that I got it to at least somewhat work. I decided recently that the idea would work better on a smaller scale, and I realized that the actual Webb mirror shape made a great mini crossword! So here is a tiny puzzle inspired by a huge telescope. Happy solving!

About  
 

Hello! I'm Fabian. I'm a computer science and math student in Toronto. I construct puzzles based on science and technology that I find interesting, and sometimes other stuff as well. I like to think that my February 2023 New York Times debut led to a spike in physics-related google searches, but I have no evidence to back this up. I mostly publish in indie outlets, so if you enjoy my puzzles, please support them!

New puzzles will drop when I am not in class. This used to say "every few weeks", but looking at the post history of the last three years, the real pattern is "when I am not in class". In the unlikely event that you don't have this tab open at all times to check, you can sign up to get an email when a new puzzle drops. (No spam, I promise, just puzzles!)
