Featured Puzzle: Happy Day of the Dead!

ByJacob Valdez

Feliz Día de los Muertos! This popular Mexican celebration is distinct from Halloween in that it’s meant to reflect upon and honor your ancestors, rather than trick mischievous supernatural creatures.

Today, we have a Mosaic puzzle. It’s a shading puzzle similar to Minesweeper in that the clues tell you about surrounding shaded cells. The main difference is that the clue includes the cell it’s in. Shade the appropriate cells to reveal a picture!

  • Numbers indicate the total of shaded cells around and including itself.

This is a Mosaic puzzle. Be on the lookout for a future Solving Guide.
