This month is EnigMarch, the puzzle equivalent of Inktober or NaNoWriMo. Each day has a one-word prompt and people can make any kind of puzzle they like. I’ve been using the opportunity to experiment with instructionless puzzles, something I haven’t done before.

What is EnigMarch?
EnigMarch is a month-long create-a-puzzle-per-day challenge. Every day in March, we will share unique one-word prompts, deliberately broad to encourage multiple interpretations, that serve as jumping-off points for your puzzle-creating genius to flourish. https://enigmarch.com/faq/

This is actually a ruleset I've been meaning to try out for a long time, so I'm glad to have an excuse.

I was really concerned about interpreting this theme in a logic puzzle, but I'm really happy with what I came up with. One downside is that the difficulty of determining the rules here depends a lot on whether you're familiar with a specific genre.
