Challenge 5: Travel Problems
The largest river on Turasmara is Abhainn Mhòr. When the river needs to be crossed they use a space shuttle boat, but there are some alien species on Turasmara that cannot travel together.
The Flig cannot be near a Nwen as the Flig might eat the Nwen.
The Nwen cannot be near a Mlunka as the Nwen might eat the Mlunka.
The Flig and Mlunka CAN be together because Fligs are quite picky with their food and don’t like the taste of Mlunkas!
You have a Flig, a Nwen and a Mlunka all wanting to cross the river, but only one space shuttle boat.
Can you work out a way to get them all across safely?
