[This is Jim Bumgardner - author of the maze that Kraft copied]. Amusingly, this comes full circle. One of the puzzle varieties on my site is based on Penrose tilings.

Years ago, I sought (and received) permission from Penrose to use his tiling on these puzzles.

hey! That's loopy! From the Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection.

Play it here: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/js/loopy...

You can play penrose style puzzles by selecting the type in the furthest right drop down menu.

(beware, select custom and choose easy mode, becuase hard mode is hard)
