Baffled by Level 28 (6.3)
I got up to this point, I can't see any way to progress without guessing.

I mean it boils down to:
+22 -** -** 1**

With four cells remaining. Which can be solved as:

+22 - * -** 1* +22 -** - * 1* +22 -** -* 1 * +22 -* -** 1 *

Possibly more, but either way it seems possible to use or not use every hex in the solution. I have a feeling I might be missing something very obvious, either than or somehow I made a mistake early on...

Solution: The four-cell diagonal line already has four marked cells so you can destroy the two remaining orange hexes on that line.

The one on the end. D'oh. Serves me right for trying to do the game in one sitting!

I made that exact mistake, so hopefully you feel a little bit less stupid, knowing that there is someone just as stupid as you out there.

I also felt embarassed when I posted in this forum and the solution was then so obvious.

Mostly if you get stuck all it takes is to make a break and when you return the vision is clear and the solution comes quickly.
