Camping (Ouest-France)
A small daily tents-and-trees grid on Ouest-France's games site.
Every day: One dated Camping grid per day (a tents-and-trees logic puzzle), loaded by a puzzle id that contains the date, so everyone on the site gets the same grid. New puzzle: Daily, at midnight French time.
Camping is the French newspaper Ouest-France's daily version of the tents-and-trees logic puzzle. Each day's grid is identified by its date, and you place one tent next to each tree so that no two tents touch and the counts on the rows and columns match.
About Camping (Ouest-France)
Camping sits in the logic section of Ouest-France's games site, next to Sudoku, Takuzu mini, Matoku and word games such as Mot du jour and Grand sémantique. The page embeds a puzzle player that loads a grid named after the date, so the grid changes every day and is the same for everyone who opens it.
The rules, as the page puts it, are those of an observation and logic game. At the end the campsite must be filled with trees, tents and grass. Each tree is paired with a tent placed directly beside it, horizontally or vertically. Two tents may never touch, not even diagonally, and the numbers around the board give how many tents are in each row and column. A timer runs while you play.
The grid is a mini size, so a day's puzzle is a short break rather than a long session. The site asks visitors to accept advertising cookies or take a paid option.
It suits French-speaking puzzle fans and anyone who likes Tents, Star Battle or Sudoku-style deduction.
