Meant to post this, too. Another great game from the enclose.horse game, both are very fun and really challenging to play depending on the level.

I think this is basically a copy of Gerrymandle?

It's fun but I can barely see the difference between the horse and donkey colors which makes it really hard.

That's a really concrete demonstration of gerrymandering. Assign it in schools!

enclose.horse was sold off not too long after it was published. The new owners now seem to be doing a shameless cash grab, ripping off gerrymandle.com 1:1, down to some particularly weird UI choices, and the text copy is transparently LLM-generated. It would be one thing if they added some kind of improvement or unique take, but reskinning (with assets you bought) and throwing ads on it is, frankly, just lame.

day 8 expert took me about 40 seconds

I am a big fan of both enclose.horse and gerrymandle.com. I play both daily. But this rip-off of gerrymandle.com makes me feel less inclined to continue playing enclose.horse. And yes, it is a rip-off, not merely a riff on the general puzzle game of this type. It's akin to joke stealing among comedians. It makes you lose respect for the joke stealer, even if their original stuff is good.

Big fan of enclose.horse. Happy there is a sequel

Competitve side is much weaker than in enclose.horse, this game only measures hints used.

because erect.horse does not exist... yet...

Fun! One less than intuitive piece is that, as far as the game is concerned, evenly dividing a district 50-50 stops that district from counting toward anyone's majority. So if Blue was only present in a single district where its the majority, you could have ten more districts all evenly tied between Purple and Orange, and Blue would still win.

Extremely rude to use such similar colors for this, I can't fuckin tell what I'm doing

I honestly don't get today's expert puzzle. When you start, horse is at 8, donkey is at 10, and cow is at 14. I get two districts for horse, which the puzzle then states "horse wins," but wouldn't the final standing then be horse: 10, donkey: 10, cow: 14 So cow still wins? Why did it say horse wins on the "See results" screen?

No idea what is this about. Filled land with hay and still lost.

“A tie wins a district for nobody” I hate this AI slop text

This was incredibly fun and rewarding, I spent a really long time on the expert puzzle and eventually solved it. I really like that you can use some kinds of deductive logic, as well as trial and error as well! Very very fun.

Obvious htmx propaganda.
