Fillomino U-Bahn
(Published on 1. May 2023, 23:28 by KNT)
Then, divide the grid into orthogonally connected areas such that no two areas of the same size share an edge. A number inside the grid indicates the size of the area containing that cell. Within an area, all shapes of the loop network must be identical up to rotation, or are empty, but no area may be completely unvisited by the loop network. Adjacent areas must contain different shapes.
A 7x7 example is provided:
Solution code: For each row except the last, the number of lines leading down from that row. Then, the sizes of the areas in the second row (17 digits)

Great puzzle!
Lot of nice logic in here; the fillomino and u-bahn combination makes for some interesting interactions between the two rulesets.

Another super fun U-Bahn hybrid, with very well placed clues along the way. Thanks :)

genius puzzle. the fillomino constraint on shapes was a great help to trace the u-bahn. thanks

Lovely puzzle, with a very engaging and fun solve path, even though I broke it 4 times due to my lack of rigor while considering some options, but I still enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for setting it !

I had to start several times but couldn't let it be (because it was such a beautiful combination). When I finally found my persistent mistake it went very smoothly afterwards.

Lovely puzzle! I found it easier to notate without putting numbers in cells, may have made some steps take longer though.

Stunning puzzle as usual!

This is a really nice ruleset, and I think the 9x9 executes on it very well. It's difficult to notate, but that's made up for by the additional variety of deductions that come from the Fillomino part of the ruleset.
And as always, it's nice to see new U-Bahn puzzles :)
