Puzzle Bonus for Speed Glitch

Sort:

The “speed bonus” points for puzzles seem to be broken. There are times that the puzzles will give me less speed bonus points for completing it faster. If I complete within just a few seconds it will give me only 10 bonus points. If I wait a bit longer, it will give me 20 or even 25 points. Seems like a bug.

Speed bonuses depend on the puzzles target and average solve times. Every puzzle is going to have different values

Does this mean I’ll actually get punished for solving a puzzle in a shorter amount of time than the target time ? This seems like faulty game design or a bug if that’s the case. I got less speed bonus points for solving a 9 second puzzle in 3 seconds than I got for solving a 8 second puzzle in 12 seconds. They were both 1 move puzzles and the 8 second puzzle was even lower rated

You get a minimum of +5 no matter how long you take if you get it correct.

But my issue is I’m getting +10 for solving a 8 second puzzle in 12 seconds while only getting +5 for solving a 9 second puzzle in 3 seconds. This doesn’t make any sense because I get punished for solving the problem too quickly. You should get full speed bonus points for solving a problem under the target time.

You can get 25 points for speed bonus if you use more than 20 seconds and less then 25 seconds, I think this is weird
