Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply within the main 6x6 grid.
Numbers in a cage may not repeat and must sum to the total, if given.
Outside the 6x6 grid, the nth number in a row/column is a clue that corresponds to the nth block of contiguous shaded cells within the main grid for that row/column. Those contiguous cells sum to that corresponding clue. Blocks must be separated by at least one empty cell. The amount of clues for a row/column is exactly the number of white cells outside the grid for that row/column (e.g. Column 5 has exactly two contiguous blocks of shaded cells).
