Logic Masters Deutschland e.V.

In this year's Logic Masters, there was a team round, consisting of three puzzles interacting with each other: Skyscrapers, Kakuro and a Hakyuu-Capsules combination. When the test solvers rated the round too difficult, I created another, easier version, which was used in the championship. I will publish the original version here in the portal within the next days; as warm-up there are a few puzzles of these three puzzle types.

Hakyuu-Capsules: Place a digit into each cell, so that each region contains all digits from 1 to N exactly once, where N denotes the size of that region (measured in cells). Cells containing identical digits must not touch each other, not even diagonally. If two identical digits appear in the same row or column, then at least that many cells with other digits must separate them.
