There are four difficulties to choose from.
Here you can find more information regarding the required solving techniques for each difficulty.All four difficulties are variations of the same puzzle, i.e. they have identical solutions.This time I personally found the Apprentice version a bit too easy, so in the future I will probably try to notch it up a bit, unless feedback tells me not to do so.
On the paper the Guru version looks very difficult and requires 6 different advanced techniques, but wizard Glyn probably just pulls a thread (chain) somewhere and then the tapestry unravels completely.
A) Novice.
B) Apprentice (mainstream edition).
C) Master.
D) Guru.
