Coded Dissection (Ordered)

(Published on 10. October 2022, 08:20 by jovi_al)

I had a lot of fun making this, and could potentially see myself making a larger one to accommodate hexominoes.

This is inspired by this puzzle, but with some changes to the rules:

Divide the grid into 5-cell regions of orthogonally connected cells, without repeating a shape (including rotations and reflections as the same). Clues outside the grid give the lengths of the segments in that row or column in order of appearance (note that these are more similar to Roller Coaster clues than the puzzle linked above). "?" clues may be any number. Either all or no clues are given for each row and column.

Play on Penpa+. Answer check triggers with edges drawn.

Solution code: The number of segments in the first four rows, followed by the number of segments in the first four columns (eight numbers)

Very smooth and fun! Nice work. I look forward to a hexonimous if you do choose to make it.

That was fun, you should definitely make the hexominoes follow-up

Very nice! I’ve been quite scared of pentominous puzzles for a good while, but this one I enjoyed from start to finish. :-)
