Continuity is a puzzle from Round 1 of the 2021 Silph Puzzle Hunt. Solvers are given several grids containing letters and shapes.

Solve Path[edit | edit source]

 

Based on the A-Y and the lettered grids, it is possible to solve each grid as a Hidato, with the letters A-Y standing in for the numbers 1-25, forming a path where adjacent letters are always at least diagonally adjacent. The shapes also trace out the numbers 1, 2, and 3 in the top to bottom order of the grids, providing an ordering of the shapes. Taking the letters of each shape, there is a unique fourth letter that makes a four-letter word. The fourth letters spell out the answer, SLIDESHOW.
