Crossing Masyu is an innovative variation of the classic Masyu puzzle that I created for a puzzle innovation contest. Masyu is one of the most popular loop puzzles, and this variation introduces a new twist by allowing the path to cross itself at specially marked cells. This additional rule creates fresh solving opportunities while preserving the elegant logic that makes Masyu puzzles so enjoyable. This is the only Crossing Masyu puzzle I created to demonstrate the concept of this puzzle type. Give it a try and share your thoughts and solving experience in the comments.
Rules of Crossing Masyu Puzzle
Moving from square to square, draw a closed path that passes through every circle and crosses itself only at the squares marked with "+". The path must turn at every black circle, but can not turn immediately before or after. And the path can not turn at any white circle, but must turn immediately before and/or after.
