Takara: one route to the treasure
Takara is Japanese for treasure, and one of the three logic puzzles at Tabi Puzzles. Every one is made by hand and checked by a solver to have exactly one solution, found by reasoning alone.
Like Train Tracks or a Nonogram, Takara puts its counts along the edges: one route, and numbers that say how many squares of each row and column it covers.

The rules
- Find the one route from the entrance to the treasure 宝. It steps up, down, left and right, never crosses a wall or itself, never enters a void, and never visits a square twice.entrancewallvoidtreasure
- A number beside a row or column says how many of its squares the route covers. The entrance and the 宝 also count as squares of that row or column. No number means no constraint. A clue with ≥ or ≤ is a bound rather than a count: ≥2 says the route covers at least two squares of that row or column, ≤2 at most two.rowcolumnat leastat most
- An arrow is a square the route must pass through, leaving in the direction it points. A four-way marker only says the route comes through — any way in, any way out. It is drawn with only the ways that are open, so one in a corner has two arms.arrowfour-waycorner
- More than one 宝 means only one is real. The rest are decoys: exactly one sits at the end of a route that satisfies every other clue.特 specialimpostor
