A hybrid combines sequencing and grouping. Example: assign workers to shifts AND order tasks within each shift.
Setup: Create a grid or multi-row diagram that captures both dimensions.
Row 1: Shift assignment (grouping)
Row 2: Task order within each shift (sequencing)
Strategy:
1. Identify which element is sequencing, which is grouping
2. Set up one dimension first (usually grouping)
3. Layer the sequencing rules on top
4. Look for cross-dimensional deductions
These are usually the hardest game. If you're aiming for 165+, you need to handle these. Below 160, consider skipping the hardest game entirely and focusing on accuracy elsewhere.
