Melinda,
I’ve solved some of puzzles a couple of months ago, but there was nothing new for me - just versions of tetrahedron and cube. For something new we should try new coloring (with 12,24,36 colors etc.). Unfortunately I don’t understand Roice’s notation of puzzle definition, and can’t add good puzzles to MT.

Dear Cubists,

It’s been a while now since Roice added several (approximately) infinite
polygons to Magic Tile under "Hyperbolic > Large Polygons", and I’ve not
seen or heard of any solutions to the ones with more than three colors.
Has anyone done that? Even with 5 random twists I find myself hopelessly
lost, but then I’m not a strong solver. These new puzzles sure look
fabulous. How do they compare to the rest?
