When I started generating puzzles I made a small stock. The feedback however indicated that my first puzzles were to difficult respectively took to long to solve.
So they have been laying around on the hard drive, but now it is time for a spring-cleaning of the HD. Instead of just throwing them away, I decided to post them as extras.
They are not especially difficult regarding the required solving techniques but can take some time to solve due to to the "high" number of Intersections.
