@lisyarus It seems you used the graph based approach to find the solution. That is basically "hard mode" :D Well done. You could have right clicked the icons on the playing field to find the solution by elimination of impossible locations for certain items ;)
@kubbl You mentioned an important point with the identification of icons on late levels. Maybe I should have added a magnification feature.
The second one was really important, I only figured it out in the 4x4 puzzle.
You can cheese it out, since you have only 1/16th chance of making a mistake by right clicking at random. Then if you do make a mistake you found the correct one and you solve the puzzle!
Nice puzzle game overall! Did you made the board by hand or do you have a clever algorithm to make sure there is enough clues ?
*(Disclaimer: Puzzle lover here)* The puzzle is simple once you get how to solve it, you just need time, so (for a puzzle lover) a timer would add to the challenge.
Interesting take on the obvious "go deeper to find more gemstones" interpretation of the theme. Good job!
