Clues #5 and #6 are not necessary to solve puzzle.
fun and easy i really enjoyed it
Clues 4, 5 & 6 are not necessary.
I solved it using on the first three clues. Very easy.
Easy but fun.
Clues 4, 5, and 6 weren't needed. And I didn't have to put any 'X'es in the grid since so many of the answers were just told to us.
Really good and well-thought out. I know some logic grids where they dont give you enough explanation
Great beginning teaser. I only used the first 3 clues. Good job.
It was SO EASY!!!!
I also only needed the first cople of clues.

That was loads easy.
Okay. logic grid teasers aren't that easy to submit, but this one had 2 main problems.
1.Way to easy.
2.Needless clues.
Overall, 5.5/10, not too bad I suppose, but it could be better.

Oops. Double posted. Sorry.
easy yet fun!
keep making these kind of grids!!! and armatures gonna love you...
Took me about 10 seconds -- awfully easy!
Pretty fun, but also easy and I don't see how you can play pinball on a computer.
klsowell I have pinball on the computer. SPACE is release ball and LEFT and RIGHT are left and right paddles.
ok good one
half the hints, then it is still easy ;)
sooo simple haha
This was really easy. You only need clues 2 and 3 to solve it.
If you don't use the logic grid there is no way to know what the name of the game Katie played.
This is a (trivial) linear programming (optimization) problem which can be solved with SCIP.
