Internal X-Sums Chaos Construction (6x6)
(Published on 11. July 2022, 01:37 by jovi_al)
A ruleset I've been playing around with. Here's a little example puzzle!
Place a digit from 1-6 into every cell such that every row and column contains all of the digits. In addition, draw six regions of six orthogonally connected cells that also contain all of the digits. A digit X in a cell containing a number N in its top left corner indicates that that cell sees X cells in its own region via row and column including itself, and that those cells sum to N. Region borders obstruct view.
Solution code: Row 5, row 6

Took me a bit while to get the concept into my head but it's really fascinating, may try the bigger one in the future :)

This reminds me a bit of ahaupt's Killer Construction and I really enjoyed the additional X-sum component. Thanks, jovi_al!
