Heyawacky Fillomino
(Published on 6. December 2021, 16:30 by SudokuExplorer)
Partition the grid into areas such that no two areas of the same size are orthogonally adjacent.
Fill each cell of a N-cell area with the number N.
Heyawacky rules apply with the digit 1
Each boldly outlined region is a Heyawacky room.
Every 1-cell fillomino area is shaded and no other cells are shaded.
All unshaded cells are orthogonally connected.
Each circled cell counts the number of shaded cells in the room. (Not all circles are necessarily given).
No horizontal or vertical sequence of unshaded cells may pass through more than two rooms.
You can try this on Penpa+ or Penpa+ (bars representing Heyawacky borders). Enjoy!
Note: Answer check works when all cells have been filled in or all fillomino borders have been drawn.
Solution code: Enter the 3rd and 9th rows.

Very nice! I enjoyed that a lot. The 1's being the shaded cells is a brilliant idea that makes this combination feel quite natural.
