@Lamkin, you've done it again, sir!
I didn't know that pulling ALL the fuses would buy me the time needed to trace the wires correctly.
Yeah, I've just always done that (on the desktop as well as the iPad)...made it easier, I thought. :)
So as not to lose my mind when playing through this puzzle I've resorted to taking a screenshot of the fuse box image, studying it off-game, then returning to finish defusing the bomb based on my notes. (i also
never approach the "5 in a row" puzzle without the
Lamkin's Gambit explanation nearby) ;)
They sure don't give you a lot of time to solve that puzzle (and I agree that you can only replay it so much before you lose your patience), so that's not a bad idea to take a screenshot. :)
And it is kind of amazing (lucky) that I was able to find that Gomoku pattern. =p
