Shimaguni Minesweeper 1
(Published on 5. March 2022, 00:58 by BenceJoful)
- Shade a single group of orthogonally connected cells in each region.
- Shaded groups may not share a bold border.
- Each region must contain at least one shaded cell, and no two orthogonally adjacent regions may contain the same number of shaded cells.
- The number of shaded cells surrounding each flag (up to 9) is equal to the number of shaded cells in the region. Not all flags are given.
Example (Penpa+ link):
Solution code: For each shaded cell in columns 4 and 7, give size (cell count) of the shaded group.
In the above example, the solution code (using columns 3 and 6) is 34433331.

Updated verbiage of 'adjacent' regions and flags.

"adjacent to each flag" obviously includes diagonally adjacent cells. But are diagonally adjacent regions with the same number of shaded cells allowed or forbidden?
-------------
Bence: Good call, the word "adjacent" is being used inconsistently. The normal rules of Shimaguni apply, which only specify that orthogonally adjacent regions must have different shaded cell counts. In other words, diagonally adjacent regions may or may not have same count.
