Great job! I enjoyed going through the steps.

The final though seemed like a huge leap for me, who don’t know anything about those math mysteries (which I assume is your target audience).

First I was curious to learn how is the fast way to understand that 1, 2, or 4 colors suffice. And why finding out such a way for 3 is so hard.

The zero-knowledge proof demonstration felt like “changing the subject”. Probably I missed the connection there.




ZKP is the subject. The maps part is a helper lemma.

It would help to clarify that in the beginning. The game is a bit of a shaggy dog tail. It would be good to give an outline and progress bar at the start (without spoilers)
