Pencil Puzzle Bench - Country: leaderboard
Models solve Country loop puzzles from short text-encoded grids and written rules. A single non-crossing loop must visit every region once and satisfy its clues. Each of 15 puzzles is scored for constructing a legal solution to its spatial, logical and planning constraints. The move list is only the answer encoding; scoring evaluates the resulting loop rather than JSON formatting. No images or long documents are supplied.
Metric: Direct-ask Success Rate (%). Source: ppbench.com. Saturation forecast: Not forecast. 51 models tracked.
