4 Rundwegcousins
(Published on 28. December 2010, 00:08 by pokerke)
Each cousin is also a 4x4 puzzle, where the number (1 to 4, never 0) in each 2x2 cell is equal to how many of the 4 cells are inside the fences puzzle.
Two of the four cousins are a standard 4x4 fillomino puzzle, the other two are standard 4x4 skyscraper (Hochhäuser) puzzles following the skyscraper clues in the neighbouring column and row of the neighbouring two puzzles as they are pictured below.
Can you figure out which cousin is which and how their respective loops are formed?
Solution code: The size of the areas outside of each of the loops, clockwise, starting in the top left. First for the top left puzzle, then for the top right, then for the bottom left puzzle, finally for the bottom right puzzle.

Small clarification in the description of the solution code in German, based on a comment from Statistica. Thanks.

So. Jetzt wird es langsam zur Serie und ich finde diese Idee irgendwie witzig:
Das 1000. Puzzle ist auch mein 1000. gelöstes Rätsel
Das Rätsel und die ganze Serie ist wirklich Spitze!

.... Mein 1000. gelöstes Rätsel....
Ein wirklich schönes Rätsel für dieses gleichzeitig auch persönliche Jubiläum. Es macht nur ein wenig nachdenklich.... Wenn ich von einer durchschnittlichen Lösezeit von 20 Minuten ausgehe - also quasi 4 "Uvo´s" - ... 20.000 Minuten ... fast genau 14 Tage ...
... ... Hmmmm ... ... Hurra!?

Don´t worry Kim, this puzzle has earned to be #1000!
I´ll try to make it my solved # 1000 too ;-)

@pokerke:
If you worry about the number #1000: just tell me.
I would know a way to make this puzzle to be the #999, and I am used to be beaten. ;-)

@Luigi
I didn't know, or I would have at least themed the puzzle around the number 1000 or something. I hope I didn't block anyone from posting such a puzzle.

Gratulation zum 1000. Rätsel im Portal!

Thanks for the positive feedback on the previous puzzles in the series. Therefore I now made a slightly larger variation with an extra dimension added.
