This one had been sitting at completed, but not solved for quite a while. Decided to look at some annealer levels today, and managed to find the right cuts. There’s actually quite a few options available in the later part of the level, and it’s important to choose the right one to allow success. Not necessarily easy to find, though.

Car Battery

Great level - I actually had a lot more trouble with the optimization here than I normally expect from an annealer level, which means there’s a surprisingly large number of options. Regardless, very tough to solve and optimize, but quite enjoyable.

Troy Ounce

Very neat level - this aspect ratio produces a kind of annealer like logic that feels distinct both from the tall skinny levels, and from the ones closer to square. Quite nice to solve.

Finding a Purpose

Very nice level - has the feel of a “vintage” step count record, before annealers really took off, and is great fun to solve.

Companion Cube

Incredible level, it's amazing ******************************************************************** Unfortunately some carelessness led to a 4-off on my first touch, but it seems like there are no optimizations in this level that are difficult to see, so I was able to resolve it relatively quickly.

Sneak Through II

Very cool level. Felt impossible for a little while to even reach the end, but eventually I found the way. No optimization needed, which is always a treat. :)

The Six-Fold Shuffle

Very nice 2-off. Not intuitive at all to untangle, took me a bit of thought. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************

Unimpressed

Edit, a year later: cute level - originally 4 stars. The solution is pretty intuitive, but involves some nice block storage ideas. Fun to solve.
