Puzzle Elements[edit | edit source]

 
  • Corral - Numbers in the grid serve two purposes: they can be used to solve the Corral... but can also be used to place the answers.
  • Hint In Flavortext - it’s sometimes A-OK.
  • Overfilled Spaces - The above hint suggests that some of the squares will need to be filled with two letters, "OK" (and that they don't need to cross.)
