<p><em>This client is hard to satisfy. After breaking each of his 25 square tiles, he still wants to make his floor neatly decorated and he doesn&#8217;t want to buy new tiles or otherwise rearrange everything to make it easier. But it becomes a logic puzzle, which Sky excels at. Let&#8217;s try satisfying this tough customer, and just hope he gives Sky his well-deserved earning.</em></p>
