Wichtel 2013 (9): Tapa-Doppelstern
(Published on 5. May 2014, 21:30 by wichtel)
appropriate to December, 24th, I've hidden 24 stars for you. I hope you have fun while searching.
Tapa: Blacken some empty cells in a way that all black cells are connected horizontally and vertically and no 2x2-field is completely black. The numbers in the cells give hints on how to blacken the surrounding fields (even diagonally): The numbers give the number of directly connected black cells. Each number represents a group of horizontally or vertically adjacent cells; groups around a hint cell have to be separated by at least one white cell. The order of the numbers is unimportant.
Doppelstern: Place two stars in each row, each column and in each area. Stars have the size of one cell and may not touch each other, not even diagonally. Stars may be placed in cells with Tapa hints. Areas consist of white, orthogonal adjacent cells.
Solution code: The diagonals from upper left to lower right and from upper right to lower left (S for a star, T for black Tapa cells and W for the rest) followed by the number of cells between the stars for each row top to bottom; altogether 24 letters and 12 numbers.

I would love to know the logical path for this puzzle. After a certain point, it was entirely guesswork for me.

Great idea. I tried and failed six months ago, but this time I made it through all the T&E options.

Sehr schönes Rätsel!
Und gar nicht sooo schwer... Bis auf den Lösungscode (vgl. Zzzyxas). ;-)

Ich habe gestern Abend meine scheinbar richtige Lösung ungefähr zehnmal überprüft ohne einen Fehler zu entdecken aber der Lösungscode hat nicht hingehauen, und jetzt habe ich gerade entdeckt, daß die Lösungscodebeschreibung noch einen zweiten Teil hat. Sowas muß einem doch gesagt werden. :)

Super, ein Gebiets-Tapa der anderen Art. Und es sind wirklich 24 Sterne drin. ;)
