Solving and Generating Nagareru Puzzles

Solving paper-and-pencil puzzles is fun for people, and their analysis is also an essential issue in computational complexity theory. There are some practically efficient solvers for some NP-complete puzzles; however, the automatic generation of interesting puzzle instances still stands out as a complex problem because it requires checking whether the generated instance has a unique solution. In this paper, we focus on a puzzle called Nagareru and propose two methods: one is for implicitly enumerating all the solutions of its instance, and the other is for efficiently generating an instance with a unique solution. The former constructs a ZDD that implicitly represents all the solutions. The latter employs the ZDD-based solver as a building block to check the uniqueness of the solution of generated instances. We experimentally showed that the ZDD-based solver was drastically faster than a CSP-based solver, and our generation method created an interesting instance in a reasonable time.
