That's exactly what I was looking for! I'm surprised to see Black so high on the list.

That's about where I thought Black would place based on what I've read about it.

It is really interesting how everyone ranks the different mazes. I didn't think Indigo is hard at all IF you compare to Lime and Silver. I do think Copper is a harder maze than ranked due to the dexterity but maybe not so hard for the brain :)

I like this distribution. I think it's a good representation of their relative difficulties. Dorothea, you need to borrow a Handmade! :)

That's why I think we need to rate each puzzle separately for brains and dexterity.

Example: most of us started on the blue. Being completely new to this style of puzzle, we had many brain challenges to deal with, like holding and operating the puzzle, understanding the different types of paths, what a trap is, how to map, and so on.
As for dexterity, there wasn't a lot in the blue beyond that one spot. For a beginner, blue is a significant brain challenge and a moderately low dexterity challenge.

Compare this with the green. Not much new to discover, so I'd rank the green as an easier brain challenge than the blue, but a significantly harder dexterity challenge.

The really new thing to discover took me some good time, as i have played with blue and was used to do the (censored) without thinking.

Sure, but compared to the blue, the green has only one new brain thing. It was well hidden, and it also took me a while to find it, but I still think the learning curve for the blue was steeper.
