This puzzle has its genesis in a poll that Powerziege created about a week ago. Powerziege ran a poll asking which types of puzzle people most preferred. To my dismay, 58% of people voted for Jigidi jigsaw puzzles.

I admire puzzles, I admire puzzle creators and the ingenuity that it takes to create a good puzzle. As a solver, I am addicted to that AHA moment. There is a real feeling of joy at the moment that the problem solution or some other significant realisation becomes clear. That is my drug. Sadly, a jigidi doesn't give me an AHA. I still sometimes enter them, but I do have the same degree of being impressed with the creator.

But I wanted to show that one could create a real puzzle with jigidi. So this puzzle consists of two parts. In the first part, there are seven small (50-75 piece) jigidi puzzles. Each gives a word or phrase that should be entered into an ITH. If you solve all seven puzzles, you can get a prize, and you can also enter the second round, which consists of a single metapuzzle that takes as its input the seven answers from the first part.

If you need more information about Metapuzzles, I can certainly recommend my Magic Guide which is two years old, but still valid.

The six prizes for this event are (in alphabetical order):
Cook, Serve, Delicious!
Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered
Grimrush
Just Cause XXL Edition Note:This is the bundle with all the DLC

Monstrum
Spectrubes Infinity

Good luck. The event starts here

Ok thank's for the extra hints. Very interesting puzzle but very hard as well (that is relative of course).
Won't be entering those wishlisted GAs though as it wouldn't be fair to the others since I got additional help.
Learned a few new things regaring meta puzzle solving so a big thank you for that. :)

I already own the game, but it will be nice to see the answer when the time is up. Much melting of brain. ;)

Waiting for the solution now. I'm expecting a "I would've never come up with that on my own"-moment. :D

As of Noon on the 18th of February (which is my birthday), we are up to 18 solvers, which is good, but less than I was hoping for.

I am happy to give out hints in chat to help people get across the line. I warn that because of my birthday, I am unlikely to be on much today, but should be around tomorrow. It ends at 11pm GMT tomorrow.

Right! Hint 3 says that whatever you have constructed, it is the emptyness in the middle that gives it meaning. A house is useful, not because of the walls, but because of the space in the middle. A vase is important because of the space it holds, a wheel only works, because of the hole at the centre where the spokes meet.
it is the space in the middle that is particularly important.
