Shikaku-Sudoku rules:
- - Classic sudoku rules apply.
- - The grid is entirely covered with non overlapping rectangles. Each rectangle contains exactly one circle, and the digit in the circle indicates the number of cells in the rectangle. n.b : digits can repeat within a rectangle if allowed by other rules, and a rectangle consisting of a single cell is valid.
example puzzle : Shikaku 101
Sorry for a long delay to post my first serious shikaku-sudoku, been quite busy for a couple weeks. I'll try to post the other one soon (it's my favourite, saving for last :P). Difficulty is hard to judge, somewhere between 3 and 5 stars being a relatively new variant, and I got varying echoes, so I post it as 4*.
You're also strongly encouraged to check Qodec's amazing puzzles with this ruleset :
Hope this one will be entertaining and challenging :)
Solution code: row 4 and column 9

Once you figured out all regions it becomes a doable sodoku.
Figuring out the regions takes something a wrong FORKED road….beware…..
