Hungarian Tapa
(Published on 25. February 2024, 21:29 by Qodec)
Shade some cells such that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area and no 2x2 region is entirely shaded. Each row and each column contains exactly six shaded cells. Place the digits 1 to 6 into each shaded cell such that they appear once in each row and column.
Clues indicate the sums of the digits in consecutive shaded blocks in the (up to 8) neighbouring cells. If there is more than one number in a cell, then there must be at least one unshaded cell between the shaded cell blocks. Digits may repeat in individual sums. Clues cannot be shaded.

A fabulous puzzle, I agree with other comments that I need more Qodec pencil puzzles in my life.
My only complaint is in the stating of the rules, switching "unshaded" and "shaded" :)
